POTD 5th Feb 18

Dedicated to Ken, a good friend of mine who had to give up a brilliant ballet, ballroom dancing and stage career when he was injured after a fall while performing a complicated dance routine maneuver on stage. I hope you will enjoy...

"Cherish Armour"


She 
wears 
Her armour,

LOVE -

draped like chain mail
shields You 
with Her heart

When She is drowning
She will throw You to the sure
safe for Your future

And She will cry of lost children 
morbid oblivion, 
damnation and desolation

Her tears flood wider 
than any vast 
deep ocean 

Hidden...

"Voluptuous Bullets"



In the game of Love and War
voluptuous bullets
penetrate a mouth of warm words

Lacking defence lines 
boundaries come undone 
in the valleys of a body let loose

Depth charged oceans seduce
and submerge the sensual mind
civility replaced by plundered flight

And soft war cries in ruffled sheets that...

"Interludes Experimental" 

Written in clouds
what eyes miss
patterns repeat
in minds 
like poets speak 

fast and irretrievable
irrelevance misses
the parenthesis
buried in interludes
experimental 

in minds 
like poets speak

"Logos" 


always there
walking tightropes
beside me

pre-existent

logos walking
parting 
waves in air

I turn my back 
on eyes that speak
lost knowledge imprint

I turn my back 
on recalcitrant
childhood dreams 

I turn around ; 

you, 
the shadow
still seen 

a ghost 
haunting
persistent

remain

still there,
as if 
in dream

“Colour Codes”


sky blue 
clouds hide 

truth,

and you said,
I know you.

end story 
remains open;

truth,

rain ends
sky blue 

with,
or without you.

"Parable"



When the other
side of night
came to collect its token

I was starlight
unsinkable invisible 
some uncaptured mystery
 
that would never again
be broken mortal
like an egg shell

under the bickering feet 
of men, listening to 
their own voices

their pathetic arguments
lost in the loud egos
of the better-thans

and the small gods...

The Birdsong of Ludovico,
New to my agnostic ears,
Commences unrestrained 
From a godly source

To irrigate my fields,
To rearrange my clouds,
To tantalize my doubts,
To render my cathedral..

His royal nest of birdsong notes
Fills my congregation
With an unknowable truth:
Yes there is a source,

I can be sure,
I am not lost....

If ever
You walk Cable beach
Say hello
To a girl I know
She’ll be sitting there
Come sunset
Under a wondrous sky
That will make you believe
In Gods and magic
And love too
If you gaze to long
Into her hazel eyes
You’ll know her
By how her auburn hair
Shines golden
In the evening air
It will flow...

Down the aisle where two worlds meet,
Separation and fate meet together,
And a lonely traveler walks through the fog,
Following the call of your heart.

He is looking for something that is not in this world,
What can fill his soul and heart,
And in every note he finds answers,
He...

My heart is pounding in unison with the music,
Creating an inspired drawing with her,
Subtle notes like a brush on canvas,
They create a world where we are together in tenderness and affection.

Your hand is on mine, your eyes are closed,
It's like we're flying through the clouds...

Baby you mean the world
to me
not doubt about it
I want the world to see
We talking love
comittments
and obligation
love me honestly
love me honestly
noble thoughts
thrilling reflections
positioning me
into a lovers usefulness
to disagree
would leave me rejected
keep you close
what we have together
we start to protect it
exicted in my own mind
to speak...

These soaring chords of white, these chords that lift
The heart and spirit with their stirring gift
Of simple harmonies and bold refrains,
That energize the measures they sustain
In bright transcending notes of lows and highs,
Which rise in rhapsody and realize
The perfect tone and timbre of the score
To...
