Savagery SingsThe world alone is making me smile
left to marvel at its natural wonder.
Glowing out loud is always in style.
On a level high above thunder,
I fly on the sunshine in my veins.
My label’s that mach five number.
When caged by what society feigns,
many forget the important things.
If you fumble? Innate wisdom remains.
Wasted on the fury...

JUXTAPOSEDJUXTAPOSED
Standing either side of a door that is closed
One might feel the other, just an inch away
As two hearts that appear to be juxtaposed
Just a whispered word, that the other might say
Would be enough, despite the obstructed view
Perhaps a touch must wait for another day
Feelings both felt and expressed, are ever true
Love permeates even the...

God and SelfSelf alone is, at the singularity point
Self-existent light beyond space and time
Renewing itself within itself, It itself does anoint
This Self as luminous heart, intuits love’s chime
Creating within itself a wave of pure intent
Fulfilled instantly, as is the paradigm
God, a golden sphere, grants consent
The embryonic Self plunges into His heart
Now love enabled, exuding an ethereal...

Time Writes in Rhythms of Light
there were times when I did not understand him
times when I fought with my heart, to remember
time would not forget the days that were so grim
it wouldn’t be that long, just before December
he would tell us that love had come to his life
years after this, I’d see that stirring ember
sparks of hope divine to heal...

Forte Hanky PankyBound so tight with your silken love
tends to excite that wild beast within.
The dark of a crow and light of a dove.
This collaboration I’m eager to begin,
you leave me breathless and sweating.
I fall hard for that overtly masculine grin.
Your wet growl leaves me anticipating,
it echoes the tempo that haunts me.
Don’t say this is a game...

Tightrope of Her Abandon
Hebrews 13:5 “Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.”

she was left broken, with fearless abandon

INTERVIEW WITH AN ANGELINTERVIEW WITH AN ANGEL
Way back then, Noah had clearly read the signs
Here and now, so very few of us are left
I’m Goliath, frontman for the Philistines
Without my trusty visor, I am bereft
But I am very tall, and not a small ‘un
With his sling, David did seem to be so deft
There are a lot of rumours...

HAPPILY DISCONTENTHAPPILY DISCONTENT
One may wish to own a JW Turner
The art of art is the skill of knowing
And recognising every good earner
The online market for art is growing
Yet it is more my greed I must quell
One needs a real space for showing
With my few fake Masters left to sell
I found a gallery, as credibility counts
For a...

Proclamations
Love stirred my soul, rousing an aspiring fire
passions swelled, feelings exploded with delight
gentling hope and grace soared higher and higher
whispers of joy pour out stars across the night
stilling the shadows with songs of careful bliss
moon beckons to the spirit, glowing so bright
only God knows how I long for morning’s kiss
life reminds me why there are...

All we need to knowWherefrom does arise that impulse divine,
which we deludedly claim as our own,
thus offerings of grace decline?
In the void of silence, we dethrone
wayward ego birthing fear and desire,
whence mellow and gentle becomes our tone.
Having consigned ego to the funeral pyre,
all that remains is presence aware,
radiating God’s eternal fire.
Recognise oh hermit, each thought as a snare ~

Tear Stained Music
Breath of light, casting shadows over the night
Soothing stars and moon in her gentle embrace
Hurling nervous sea against beaches so white
Gentling the surf with a calm time can’t erase
Cobalt sprays fall against the sandcastle reefs
Stirring wells of euphonious tones of grace
Mists of joy, glazing the trembling cloverleafs
Sunlight glow murmuring peace to the coastline
Sand dollar stories...

American BauhausSurrounded by peeling wallpaper
it’s a picture of provocation;
These holes tended to terrify her.
Spots that need so much renovation
must be rebuilt right down to the core;
There’s happiness in new construction.
You’ve got an idea what’s in store,
once the soul is restored to this house;
An antique knob attached to the door.
Enough beauty to instantly rouse
a blend called...

YEARNING FOR LEARNINGYEARNING FOR LEARNING
I studied love from a scientific text
Its logical approach fitted like a glove
It said exactly the things I must do next
I do know everything about life and love
At least now after reading that reference book
Although they do say, as below, so above
But your real life reaction was all it took
And what was possible,...

Felix FelicisGolden drops leapt from the pot
A mist of thyme from amber swirls
Behold! Fortune's favour made to clot
Giddily, I imbibe the gleaming pearls
Reaping blessings from Lady Luck
The limits break, the sky unfurls
Dancing to the beats of the shimmering drug
Gone is the fear of impossibilities
Lightning-powered, I'm thunderstruck
Now standing in the land of opportunities
Leading passions into...

Snow In April
It is a pitiful display
To belong where you don’t belong
Wanting to rule a former day
A worn out tune of a love song
No longer loved by the crowd
Down with the old King, so long!
The blizzard’s countenance proud
in the Kingdom of the Warm Front
Is quashed by the thundercloud
The waning moon takes affront
As sunbeams begin to amass
All victors...
