Hope was Burrow's substance, where he poured his time, 
Pedalling steadily.

Sliced through wiry roots, 
Watchguard Wombat dug safety spaces.

Safety albeit empty, 
claw shortening scooping to prop up...

he waits in the eaves
for his nameth to be call'd,
summon'd by those more selfish than he coulds't ever fathom.

he harks to their sorrows
and grants naught but kind words-
courageous and fill'd with everlasting grace.
he dost not...

The road takes me on
Through meandering mazes
Into mists and hazes
Till the time of dawn

Fiery icicles swarm
As Heaven's haughty torch
Lies on azure porch
With flames to charm

Divine breaths plead
Pink rose-buds to dance
As swallows prance
Little mouths to feed

Drops...

Why look to the heavens, in skies yonder
Simply ceasing striving, enter silence
Be still awhile and on this point ponder
Let’s consign lower mind to decadence
Then soft attention harks divine cadence
Blossoming in heart, beauteous love hues
Feel oh...

Clumsy knock about clown endears
Bubble blown, unicycling, tightrope dance 
Underneath charisma, after the cheers
Grinning sinister inkling stirs up fears
Guise causes unnerved scare's enhance

Aside from a smattering of film features
What strikes terror of tumbling funny fool?...

Banal secrets…


Just another night.
He leaves 
a bagful of snacks, 
cans of emptiness
scattered on the lumpy couch, 
in front of the tube 
now broadcasting 
a series 
on those who are yet to return, 
the traceless ones

There is a lark who is born to live in the meadow,
perched far above the smooth mountain stones.
She will rise from fields of the cloverleaf cradles,
with a foxglove petal, riding her wings.

A feather she's worn,...

The Bad Old Days. 

As one get older the mind harks back to the past 
to find what has been overlooked and the field of

Past harks out in chirp, those sad lores
that have dried tears wrapped in autumn leaves
hopes and aspirations raped till blue
grief taped tight like glue.

Years went in events failed
in wounds ,salty fingers railed
everything tried 
eventually cried.

Now...

Sandstone erode into dust harks history's fade
Effected by events, weathered
Crept century torture administers eventual taint
Withered time drives incessant 

Battered slate roof removed promotes damage 
Cold rain and blazing sun hurt
Cyprus seeds challenge infertile dust, establish...

 It's hard really;
To describe you in one word,
But if I had to, you'd be my
Best friend.
Maybe that counts as two words;
So I'll try again,
You are my
Everything.
But that still doesn't give you justice,
you're always there...

Crow

Sometimes the crow sits beside me on his wooden fence
He acknowledges I am here then listens to the world for his own amusement
His eyes are black but alive in a sense that everything he sees...

Vitriolic stances generate vicious marks. 
Sweltering, an irritating swamp of sadness. 
The bold spirit is infused with pitiful dark. 
Levied by cruel words exuding madness. 
Each genius suffers fools that ruin their harks. 

Parades of...

Tryst edged ... Aurora whisper serendipitous saffrons,
e'er forging balms beamish strands to aerate crown's expanse, whilst bestrewn
lissome mists waltzes amongst errant gasp caught in rapture.

An ephemeral cloudburst evaporates on supine
silhouettes of the gods. Pristine manna...

Every year seems to bring more sorrow to my heart,
And everytime i try a fresh start
But it just leads me back in a place thats evermore dark
That is why I know hide and protect it

On a harbor of restless shore
she scans across the deepened waves,
to end pain’s grim just like before...
as necklace breaks, in chilled farewell.

By edge of evening, time races
with hope to drown in circling tides.

Crosslegged meditation
still water contemplation
reflective pool of visions full
harks infinity sparkled jewels

Soaring mind in glory find
another space another kind
comet dusted clouded tails
fireball encrusted hail

Searing the sky within' my eye
as flaming missles from on high
touching down the...

Ebony and ivory, noted for sound,
Digital playback, sleight of hand.
Songsters echo, vibrant pound,
Upright, organ, cottage, grand.

Strings attached, taut with suspense,
The Master Key hammers home
Letters of note; chords of tense,
Past and present; timed metronome.

Naturally played with...

Remiss I’d be to disavow my love for you
Opportune moments these days arise in short supply
Magical meanderings seem only to dissipate
Amorous adieus most nights all we seem to muster
Nightfall harks to all then beckons lovers...
