Please, may I walk into your paradise with you
with its streets of gold and bright skies of blue?
My darling, you are in my sorrow-filled sad eyes
your kiss, honey in...

I hear the winter call my name
in syllables bereft of breeze,
ethereal through silent trees
hypnotic in their leafless maim.

In sheerest blue of morning freeze
the shadows drape from rimy limbs
while through my head a matin swims
that beckons past the boundaries

of culture's polished monotone.
I'd ramble the denuded scape
past...

Please, may I walk into your paradise with you
with its streets of gold and bright skies of blue?
My darling, you are in my sorrow-filled sad eyes
your kiss, honey in my ecstasy cries!

This true love, its bliss must be heaven sent
for your love, I'd all my...

Not the wisping grasp against the parchment
That licking click of writer as he tpyes
The cold inanimates touch of skin on screen
Memories only shorter I eye aye the Scottish yes
Scrapes and scrawls on cave dwelt walls
Truncated truck trimmed in intricate trestles
Who was the first message in...

With canoe and hook of a jawbone
  below a great fish Maui snared,
and his brothers half-crazed behaving
  leapt and gouged in frenzy craving.
From Palliser Bay to Cape Reinga 
 (departing place of the spirits),
from Egmont in the west to Mt Hikurangi

Danced I with thee in the moonlight 
but a silhouette on the wall.
Danced I with thee in the candle light 
beneath the sheerest shawl.
Danced I with thee by the rivers side
by the meadows hem enthralled
Danced I with thee at eternity’s edge
as the constellations sprawl.

On we...

On a page, I'm designing a little nursery.
It will typically be a splendid moon.
Dreams I'm putting to witness bursary.
The space portrays a pearl, strewn.

The trail winds its way to this point.
Each day I assess my plant's progress.
Such as the gleaming white anoint.
Radiant as the full...

I can feel it. 
It’s not quite tangible, 
Just out of reach,
Yet nonetheless real. 
Like a sixth sense on my sixth sense. 
The anticipation hangs in the air, 
The thick, jelly like, immovable air. 
Tempers shorter on the most patient
Those who swing through life, 
Suddenly...

Visibility's dropped to near-zero
   Thermometer's plummeting too
Ocean tempest tossing and turning
   Spraying the nerves of the crew

Deck swabbed by torrential rain
   Passengers hunkered down below
Afternoon's slipped into deep shadows
   Danger's pulse glowers and grows...

Back on shore, weather's...

Taunt me to madness
haunting my dreams
sending loves sadness
as meeting eyes gleamed


Travel your path
I’m watching from here
I cant get closer
and its not just fear


The light you shine 
from inside of truth
burns my body
down to its roots


Visions bright
scorching my mind
find the paths
into reaches of time


Whirlwinds of lust
twirling...

'Twas dawn and all the sky blazed red.
The tell-tales snapped like waving flags.
The keening wind was full of dread;
all surplus sails were stowed in bags.
 
Though somewhere on the restless main
the sea was growling in the deep.  
Its purpose no one could ascertain;
but there...

The tittering and chittering was going on in a whispery way
Faeries meeting once a year, showing off in the sheerest sweet way
They were conniving to make the forest the best it had ever been
Best of all, each darling tree faerie had brought her own identical...

The pale half-moon, 
like a swag of sheerest organdy, 
adorns the sky... 
an ornamental drape 
on an ethereal window....
