The Giant of Lisbellaw

Stood I there, that last day,
On an iron bridge...
An aqueduct by design,
Where, looking dreamily out over
The Ernes Lower Lough,
My compressed shadow 
Momentarily paused -
To contently recline:
Amidst coy Junes radiant beams 
of sweet benign!
All was stilled,...

And I know you've gone away,
But in my heart you'll always stay”  –Katie Melua

but venturing...

Put Them Out of Sight Now

Lay down your old ink pen...
Rise from the table...
Push back your chair.
Gather them all up...
Put them out of sight now...
Place them safely in the cupboard

Wrapped in stiff brown paper,
Strung tightly together
With thin white string;
Turn...

Of the Quandaries and Mystics In Divine Shamanism

The Shamans gather to discuss the oblivious reason
Dispel cruelty as fate opens for our unorthodox legion
Conformity’s blue armies will try to trap you and me in
Destroy notions preconceived, let the celebration begin

The mind is confused...

Forgiving You

At first I called you Mama, then Mummy and then Mum
I lay awake at night 
Wondering how long you will be gone

I stayed inside myself, a lot of the time
I longed for your love
I just...

Mirror Image

Thoroughly I believed in your love. In the words you spoke, I found truth. Wanting so to understand the depth. Glancing back I now can see, that your declarations were lies indeed. Love doesn't run...

The Love I Have Lost And Found

Long time had passed, our road doesn't met
We keep on searching, but fate doesn't allow us
I removed myself from my shell to find freedom
Time you came unnoticed I wasn't there
I go to North, you came,...

Giggles and Dust Rise

Cool raindrops kiss my cheeks
A warm breeze rises within me
As I recall the moments
Which linger in my heart forever

The pulsating sphere of light and dark
Polar opposite lovers in the circle of life
Encompassing magnificent visceral nuances
Infinite...

times when I fought with my heart, to remember

Of Her Rocker

I have set in this corner too long it’s true
My hand rails are polished to a light umber hue
My spines have come loose, but they just need some glue
And my cushions have faded from a...

Gramma's Button Tin

My Gramma as I called her, probably seemed no different than most,

She had grey hair, was fairly stout and always wore...

Not knowing that the devious, mysterious, and ruthless hunter is quickly approaching
With the sole intent to plot against his prey then mercilessly yet...

Sleepwalking Angel

Finally, my little girl is sound asleep

Complacency

It is foolish to feel so good, you forget about before.
It is foolish to feel so bad, you might again explore.
It is foolish to feel anything, anything but your core.

My Kentucky in Fall
 
Peaceful country roads winding through meadows and hills,
and golden rays kiss purple asters, tall ironweed and abundant goldenrod.
Gorgeous colors are greeting me despite the warning that drought 
would hold them back...

Tree of Life

I see a tree outside my patio door; it’s tall and gifted with so much life.
