It's really such a lovely time to be
life feels so good full of flavour
that dampness in midst so bright
nature living out it's true behaviour
The sun glistens through the trees
colours so varied looks real cool
clouds bursting in their fullness
sparkling fully like a diamond jewel
Raindrops come bursting over and down
sprinkling from the clouds above
so refreshing cools the warm air
rain and sun like true lovers in love
So contrasting are these lovely pair
full of life so evident for all to see
splashing it's rays all about our world
what splendour behind that green tree
These summer months are so rare
so make most of this delightful pair
fastened to the ground, with feet and hands tied, the objects i was watching were, not the plain simple silhouetted images, thrown on the partially fallen mud wall, in Plato’s cave but gaudily colorful quickly revolving images on the vast screen
the images, were overwhelming, dazzling, blinding my eyes
the air in a cave should stand still, stuffy and heavy, even merancholic;
this cave was different, it was filled with inharmonious bursting sounds,
enough to tear the eardrums to pieces
in the dilemma of the cave, i cannot sit still and listen, or watch
all these complications, so i broke the chains and rushed out from
the cave to see the world outside i never saw
lo and behold! everything in nature embraces one another
it becomes a one huge boundless unit but not a wholeness
in one accord
all are mingled as one in the darkness of a sunless sky,
black is the darkness before the sun, before its time to rise
from the other side of a deeply sunken horizon,
waiting, though useless, a day calls, a tomorrow yet to come
Around The Corner
There was an object, with an obstacle just out of reach
Perceived only by its glow coming from the other side
Waiting for me to show
It was similar to a foreign speech covered in bare iron
There between a veil of secrecy and a concrete shadow
Raised there in perfect crystal clarity
A wall, a corner of reality, hungry for exposure to expose the truth
To reveal the prize just on the other side
I turned the corner there to find yet another wall
This one taller than the first
The glowing object had moved to that location
It was closer now and made a sound that haunted me
I could almost smell its energy and taste its power
The new wall was well within my reach
Around the corner I ran, in fear, bursting into tears
The glowing object and all obstacles had disappeared
Just around the corner from here

Equality
My first memory of women’s football is Brandy Chastain
Taking her sports shirt off after she scored on the pitch
Don’t know if she got a yellow card but had to google her name
The brazier underneath had no logo for advertising the make
But surely the sexual quality of the display advanced the game
As fine boobs pumped up by action asked for a second look
Twenty years after that iconic moment sexism is still rife
Equality a dream of the future and yet aspirations grow
The US team is favourite to win the world cup once more
Germany has a fine set of players and have not conceded so far
Eight times European champions twice top at the World Cup
The player’s names a ‘don’t know’ on the streets of the country
Bursting with confidence they are their own role models
‘We do not need balls because we have long pony tails’
‘Pferdeschwaenze’ in German with more meaning than one
For their first win at an international competition they got a tea set
At least it was not a free set of sex toys or a packet of condoms
They refuse to remain in kitchen and bed and ‘boy can they play’
My own daughter plays Rugby for Wales she is no Ian Rush
Not Ryan Giggs or Gareth Bale and holds a ‘regular’ job
To satisfy her passion and travels the world for an oval sphere
The earth was once flat and times are slowly changing
And yet her best chance of making money as a player
Is sports commercials with her raving dark chestnut hair
Post-scriptum:
The German goalies’ name is Almuth Schult
Her shirt is not clean but so far she kept a clean sheet
FIFA comprises more countries than the United Nations
Whoever wins it’s a beautiful game not only for men
In a male world but for me the women raise the roof just the same

EASTER SUNRISE
Outside, perfect Sunrise
Service. The air’s so fresh.
Pastel dresses, pretty ties.
Resurrection from the creche.
Birth and rebirth celebrated.
Jesus - our Dayspring on High.
As sunrise songs begin, elated,
Oh how blessed with warming-eye.
The Son! The Son! Salvation
Hallelujahs in the blue and red hills -
Up goes the praise of creation.
Though a miniature group, it thrills
With anticipation of eternity nigh -
Gathered with the communion of saints.
Early risers savor the reverberating sigh,
Remembering our Savior - with no restraints.
We smile, we nod at one another
Knowing each person rose to the occasion.
Oh how much love, one for another,
In this small concreted space - a holy invasion.
Can you see the angel armies all about -
In power, quietness, expectation?
The one who rolled the tomb’s stone with a shout
Surely sees glory after glory without cessation.
We remember the snow white lamb of Bethlehem;
The victorious, merciful and just lion;
The great I Am;
The One who awakens Zion.
The air, so fresh, and we’re squeaky clean
Not because of water and soap
But because we accepted and lean
On Jesus Christ our Living Hope.
Dressed in pretty attire, not to be seen,
But to honor and applaud The Great -
The death and resurrection was the scene,
For the return of the King of kings, we cannot wait.
Bruised bones resolved, inhale - the inspire.
The second Adam resurrected on Sunday.
Laud, sing - with Holy Spirit fire.
Join in this spectacular prayer ballet
And the cloudburst of the sunrise choir.
Bursting with pink, tangerine and baby blue -
The horizon and the faithful spire;
The disclosure of God breaks through.

Upon rockets they'd been launched into the night sky
Each of them more beautiful than the ones before
Exploding in bright array, resounding on high
Despite the scent of acrid smoke, crowds shouted, "More!"
Each of them more beautiful than the ones before
Bursting into life like newly blossomed flowers
Despite the scent of acrid smoke, crowds shouted, "More!"
Like tossed petals they fell in prismatic showers
Bursting into life like newly blossomed flowers
Exploding in bright array, resounding on high
Like tossed petals they fell in prismatic showers
Upon rockets they'd been launched into the night sky

Breathless – wistful,
Its wonderful inklings,
Blended with phantastic, gifted
In sighs, breathless – wishful
Reckless feelings, emotional, rich
Aromatic memories lingering
On the edge of sensitive, exciting
Mysterious like the haunting
Dream, echoing endlessly
Inside a sensation,
Moody melodies playing
Soft against the backdrop of peace,
Quiet joy promising
Heaven’s hope, hesitating
Past the timelessness
The serenity unfolding, breathless
Like the intensity of grace,
The wonderful so blessed, praise
Like the softest thanks,
Unbroken, unknowing, unheard
The beliefs, the prayers
Faded beneath the colors,
Hues of destiny, breathing out
Breathing in – overflowing
Rivers of passion, mounting
Headed out toward the seas,
Where they will merge
With joy and hope, love like
The answer to every need,
Love so beautiful – so sweet
Coming to life inside the moment
When two hearts reflect
The glory, the gentle, the gift
Two spirits bursting with light
Sighing into the night
Spoken for, promising the soul
Two lips parted, swollen
With ecstasy – the funeral of lonely,
The intimacy of elation, thriving
In the meeting of two smiles,
Two hearts, two breathless hopes –
Together, this moment – alive
In this song, alive in this kiss
Between two who become one
Thought, one promise, one dream
Overflowing into the wonder
Beyond thoughts, hopes – dreams
This is the bliss – this kiss
Rich with feelings, blessed
With kindness and compassion,
The beautiful in being united
By elation – euphoria, the excitement
Beyond the heart’s innocence,
In a gesture of believing – reaching
Inside the secret, the clandestine
The kiss – love’s reflection
Abiding on the heart’s admiration,
The soul’s adoration, the blessing
In an affectionate relationship
Passion’s applause – to eulogize – the kiss

Like a dragon yawning, began today's dawning.
Eastern sky teased with hints of a pink morning.
Bursting, it covered East, North and South,
spewing clouds of candy cotton from heaven's mouth.
The sky was writhing to a beautiful sonata, billowing over roofs and tree tops in an extravaganza.
The West remained gray, excluded from excitement:
poised, silent, stoic and devoid of involvement,
except for the start of a rare solid pink rainbow
arching high into the sky, stopping before the glow
of nights taunting stars could grasp it away.
As quick as it came it was gone. Sky again was gray.
The day was not yet over and done.
Pink still had plans for more exhibits to come.
As the sun retreated for another evening of rest,
gray sky scattered and splattered the West.
Slender herring bone clouds assembled in an array.
Pink reappeared, tinting those clouds on display.
Then, tucking Sun into bed for the night,
climbed in beside him, and turned off the light.
Tranquil Undergrowth
Tranquil Undergrowth so slowly grows
And hides the tiny timeless leaves of life
Arrows spring forth on sunlight bows
Joined by birds of green and white in flight
Piercing bursting life into the light
Golden butterflies glisten in the new suns birth
Untangling night from day
From covered secrets in the earth
Where sacred is the spot to pray
And love comes out to play
Winged Spring bursts forth in cosmic splendor
To breathe the world to life
What joy to find you at your door
So beautiful and nice
As we explore together loves every spice
Tranquil undergrowth so slowly grows from the earth
And hides so quietly the tiny timeless leaves of life
Now we have our time for playful mirth and worth
In pools of warmer waters that ease our strife
Where you remain my lovely wife
In a world of dreams and tender grace, There's a little soul with an angelic face. A beacon of light, a source of delight, A precious treasure, shining so bright.
Oh, little one, with eyes so wide, You fill our hearts with eternal pride. Your laughter, like a gentle breeze, Brings warmth and joy with such ease.
In your innocent gaze, we see hope A future blossoming, a boundless scope You hold within you a world of dreams, A symphony of life, bursting at the seams.
With tiny hands and tiny feet, You dance through life, so pure and sweet. Your giggles, like the softest chime, Illuminate our days, one precious rhyme.
You teach us lessons, profound and deep, Of love and kindness, we'll always keep. Your spirit, resilient, forever strong Reminds us all where we belong
Through every hurdle, you'll find your way. With strength and courage, come what may. For you, dear child, are a warriors heart, A masterpiece of love, a priceless work of art.
So, dream big, little one, reach for the sky, Let your spirit soar, let your wings fly. Know that in this world, you're never alone, For you're surrounded by a love all your own.
In your eyes, the future we behold, A story yet unwritten, waiting to unfold.
