When I need to relax and seek quiet meditation
I head for the countryside without any hesitation

My weekend retreat’s perched on top...

Like an Orchid in bloom 
I fell for you
Little by little
I was consumed
Were do I sleep?
When thought and dream
You constantly seep
Into my heart
To become a part
Tethered to me
For all to see

Times were good
Some stressful too
But I was happy 
Being next to you

I saw only you
You...

Do you remember way back, yester-year,
and far off times when life had just begun?
Of languid days, so free and debonair,
all by the pool with friends and having fun? 
Those happy thoughts of Sue and Kate and Clare,
their tummies tanned and torsos basking in the sun?
And...

Long live in halcyon days 
of yore the golden age 
of my history mysteries 
known to none but one.

My inner terminal washed 
in ancient memory and gilded 
in halcyon rays...

Of a memory remembered differently 
known to none!

But one my inner sight encrusted 
in a veneer...

Cool
water
pushes up
against my face.
Eyes searching, left, right,
enchantment, pure delight.
Darting colours dashing through.
From twilight shadows wonders move.
I hang, buoyant, watching, mesmerized
enraptured   by   this  lustrous  paradise...

How I loved our trips to the local park … 
As long as it wasn’t raining you’d be raring to go 
The second I got you out of your buggy you were off like a rocket
You’d run towards the swings as fast as your little...

Nets of remembrance cast way back
  Dredging and fishing the waves
Of surf on a childhood island
  Where the halcyon days sleep in graves.
Does anyone know where the time went?
  When the tide of life started to turn,
How it slipped through the fingers...

Heading down to the water's edge
A relaxing place to hang out
Forgetting my everyday cares and woes
Watching kids jump and shout

Everyone's wearing a great big smile
Laughing and skipping along
Reminding me of my halcyon days
Singing those happy songs

Cherish those spirited days of yore
With us for too short...

Cherish past memories ... things are rarely as good second time around

Last year we went back to where we used to live ... it had changed so much the memories were much better than the reality

Halcyon Days!

I do not seek your enmity
but think I'm grateful we're not friends
although we were for many years.
Let half the nation say adieu,
There's nothing I desire from you!
I won't lean toward false gravity, 
defame my truth, praise your loose ends.

I humbly thank you for your...

In halcyon days
Remember the agony of  fire
Remember the first kiss...

Unflustered epoch, warmer, bright,
when all the world willed pure delight
and games gave chase through afternoons
on cloudless days in Mays or Junes:

then, time stood furthest from the mind
and spring was always close behind
wherever winter served its worst.
How we would hurry, sing, or burst

into the yards, play...

HALCYON DAYS

Seeing the past through rose coloured glasses
And memories with a tinge of happier times
Was it always the case that the past was nice
And never subject to the cold of frost or ice
I’m sure all prefer when temperature climbs
As sun is revealed when a dark...

Infinite sorrows non-existent
life chirped in oblivion
halcyon days of childhood
unplanned outcomes were a hit
full-on Masti from dawn to dusk
until a voice boom into ur giggles
"You're grounded 4 a week"
a tiny moment of heartbreak,
erased again in no time with 
your favourite ice cream....
