I have longed for you my love
as committed the tanager to sing
my yearn to hear your voice
as watercourses the mountains spring
My joy leaps like the springbok
at the thought of coming home
the beating heart within my breast
hungers for you alone
When the snow and ice melts
beneath the suns warming heat
the earth without her radiance
what I am do you complete
The blossoms in the grasslands
in errand paint their every hue
when your loves my garment
there is nothing I can't do
The desert wind drives the sand
exposes parchment there below
nothing here satisfies my thirst
till you I will fully know
Lakes reservoir water drains
their brooks plunge unto the sea
desire is my own refrain
till when you live with me
When the molten lava flows
to torch all within its reach
the fire that burns within me
the ardor that did me breach
I cannot endure without you
you are the sinews to my bones
no cadence exists in music
without the ascend of tones
All that abides around me
might as well be dead
apart from your connection
lies lifeless thoughts ahead
I want to fly into your arms
as a bird glides to her nest
enclose myself in your embrace
and to there forever rest
I see with a heart of woman
for I know no other kind
the person you are consumes me
like you no other will I find
Every treasure buried deep in earth
every symphony of notes I hear
less than what conceives your worth
its ecstasy when you are near

I
I layeth within walled morals of enduring convictions to coexist and be,
A delicate breath of precious life to self-assess being,
Serendipitously, I ascend in wonderment, fully aware,
Into the dawn, I hoped to perceive being ordinaire,
Challenges made the zest of life be gains,
Charms ardor of will, fortitude, justifies presence,
Fairly placed in the room of amassed commonality,
Memorable loves, and losses, that made me,
Well measured, oft maintained, visions persist,
I layeth within walled morals of enduring convictions to coexist and be.

Story of my life in ten lines
~~Silent One: Judged 2019 October 04
In God's time we all go back to Him
And it's only in deep sleep,
that we are able to ascend to Him
So that our souls He keeps
In God's time we leave this earth
Back to our first homes
And it's our time on this earth
That determines if by He's side we'll have a home
In God's time we return to He's keep
To his hold to take into account
Of all the days that we did keep,
He's word for every action He does count
In God's time we all rest
And forever we remain in that way
So rest well dear rest
It is well cause that's all our way
Forever missed

Doors will open soon
Love is a hidden treasure
Doors will close...oh joy!
Ascend, self-esteem!
Lift me higher than the clouds
The clouds overhead
Hey? Give me your all!
Hit me with your best shot, man - - -
We need to stand tall!
The clouds overhead
Shed droplets of blue lament . . .
Sunshine's near, pour clouds!
~!@#$%^&*()_++_)(*&^%$#@!~
Sunshine's near, pour clouds!
Relieve gloom of Yesterday
Cheer up, whiten up!
Cheer up, lighten up!
Let the sun rays warm your soul . . .
Disconsolate clouds
My self-esteem's low
Who ruined my self-esteem? Oh...
No! It can't be you!
Is it you?
Disconsolate clouds
Why do you weep bitterly?
Do you need a FRIEND?...
Why do I feel blue?
Arise like the sunrise, please?
Have high hopes with me!!
Do you need a friend for real?
Let me clothe you with hope,
not sheer fear . . . wait for LOVE to appear!
Don't shed one remorseful tear!
Cheer up, brighten up!
Cheer up, listen up!
Elevate me with sheer cheer!
Grab the Rope of Hope ========
Hey? I welcome you
No! Don't bid me a farewell !
You're good company!!
Good riddance, sorrow
Attitude of Gratitude . . .
Tomorrow draws near
You erased my fearz
I'm feelin' like I belong
Smile with sunlit glee with me!
Mist descends like an apparition upon the hills,
pinching every blade of grass and barren branch between its fingers.
It's omnipresent-
seeping into every crevice and tunnelling under doorframes,
filling the gap between the Earth and Heavens.
I wander within the mist.
It's light- almost as light as the air,
and yet somehow it so completely smothers
the overhead roar of New Year's fireworks.
This year I've shouted with passion, cried without hope;
I've stared disconsolately and smiled in sincerity.
This year, spring was fleeting and summer rushed by in panic;
autumn left in blazing trails,
leaving only winter's arms dangling around my neck.
Though I knew this mist must form,
for the sky is never as warm as the Earth,
I cannot help but implore "How much longer will this last?"
or, quieter, "How much more can I endure?".
But what is the price of stopping
if not the world?
I am reminded that life was not meant to be lived
like that of a beached whale
proud only in its size compared to the grains of sand,
nor was it to be spent despairing over one's insignificance-
No. It is to ascend the highest peaks,
to brush the void above the snowcaps;
It is to see the world and in it see myself,
to dive deep in the ocean and swoop between the clouds.
So let the past year crumble.
Even as last spring, summer and autumn vanish,
let winter's chilling hands take us by the waist
and sweep us forward into the storm.
Fear not;
it cannot contain us.
The sun will rise
and the mist
will lift.
His mind is dark,
like a night sky without stars.
Doubt sits upon his shoulders,
poking at his face,
irritating his mind,
interrupting his thoughts,
outrunning his words -
laughing at him hysterically.
Demons slay his self belief,
echoing like mountainous valleys.
Playing with his insecurities.
Manic voices vibrate in a percussion of shrieking,
like jesters juggling with his sanity.
Sweaty palms and heavy feet,
leave his tongue cemented,
like a block of concrete.
Curtains ascend slowly.
Microphone has no mercy.
Silence awaits,
as audience anticipate.
His petrified eyes attempt
to ignore hundreds of faces,
focusing at him.
He fumbles and mumbles
apologises and starts again.
Closes his eyes,
to find his special, sacred place.
His hidden spirit roars, as audience gasp.
His soul rises like king Arthur's sword,
releasing the thunder, trapped inside.
Doubt plummets to the ground.
His words strike like lightening,
defeating demons into silence.
Audience applaud in elation.
For a moment he smiles,
but then doubt and demons re-emerge.
Bullying his self esteem,
murdering his short lived joy.
He sits in silence,
wondering what is the point...
Simple Musing
Silent One
25 July 2020
Rearing up
before it lies
dark shadow cast
and block the sky
through bitter cold
and blazing light
even its might
now scars are borne
slippery grit
and loose stones
ledges narrow
and cracks tight
flesh so weak
and spirit quakes
the one must climb
and overcome
simple brawn
courage strong
no sure path
nor way marked
still set forth
and ascend
with care probe
and errors find
else do waves
in cold wind crash
splay like ice
on tender flesh
no skill or might
nor daring deed
courage counts not
to cross this path
yet go we must be
in fragile shell
toss to and throe
with towering might
white knuckles seize
as muscles shake
our bowels like waters
and strength flows away
and charted course
soon lost within
and all our tries
are not enough
far below
in blinding light
white gives way
to new life
yet there not
the path is not
and frozen cold
is one our way
mud so cold
on stones slip
grasping roots
stops our steps
warmth does melt
yet bitter cold
steels away
both strength and will
yet others behind
for us depend
to open the path
and mark the way
heart does pound
dry is mouth
and muscles quake
and fear is strong
one cannot know
and hope is weak
still we take
another step
‘tis through grace
that lifts us up
the way still hard
but our burden light
together we
still onward go
together on
‘tis through grace
Asleep
But conscious within my dream state
I travel through the spectral doorway
Into a world where only a being
Of your divine substance can exist
As I enter your heavenly domain,
I don my wings and gently ascend
Into the brilliantly colored sky
High above the velvety swirling mists
That carpets the depths of your reality
Seeking the soft glow
Of the life force that emanates
From deep within the nucleus of your soul
Like a beacon
Your loving light guides me
Straight to your awaiting arms
And gently you absorb me
Into your primordial existence
And I am given new life
Within your beautiful dreams
On Calvary
Poem
Lionel Derbyshire
Sans devoid and bare
Now and then I stare
Out there feeling bereft
My punctured lung bleeds
Feet wont dare to step
I am nailed so hard
The clouds go dapple drab
The sky emboss so somber
Robber and I either side
I came to fetch many faults..
Sans devoid I bare the load
Whom am I ?
Jesus from God
The saviour Messiah
Who grants salvation
Confined and tied up
The will is done now
My covenant fullfilled
My compromise given
The time has dawned
So you may live.
Sans devoid and bare
I have borne the cross alone
On Calvary
The loaded cross
Of forgiven sins
There will be images
Up a cross
In A world of great devide
No more snakes in wine
My hands and feet
No longer bereft
I thirst
I ascend
I remember you ..
On Calvary
You sin and weep no more.
How can heaven ever be heaven
if you are not up there with me?
How can heaven ever be heaven
if I am the first one to leave?
How can heaven ever be heaven,
a paradise in which I can roam,
if while I am walking in heaven,
I am walking in heaven alone?
I do not fear my death that is coming;
I do not fear meeting my end;
But, I fear waiting up in heaven
until we are together again.
But, Darling don’t you hurry,
savor your time down here on earth;
And, Darling don’t you worry,
I’ll make the most of heaven for what heaven is worth.
But …
How can heaven ever be heaven
if you are not up there with me?
How can heaven ever be heaven
if I am the first one to leave?
How can heaven ever be heaven,
a paradise in which I can roam,
if while I am walking in heaven,
I am walking in heaven alone?
I will wait for you, Darling, forever,
but heaven is sure to be hell
until once again we are together
and our love story the angels can tell.
I will wait for you, Darling, forever,
until to heaven you do ascend
and forever we will stay together
for an eternity that will never end.
How can heaven ever be heaven
if you are not up there with me?
How can heaven ever be heaven
if I am the first one to leave?
How can heaven ever be heaven,
a paradise in which I can roam,
if while I am walking in heaven,
I am walking in heaven alone?
