Harmony 69 1st Movement
HARMONY 69

knotted together an icy storm wind
that whipped False bay`s waves
to white -frilled blankets.
Thunderclaps against primal rocks
resonated through a ghettoe of glowing tents
on a dark, rough...

THE CROSS
I fold my arms and close my eyes,
I picture a cross so tall.
Mary His Mother
And Mary His disciple
Crying below, at His feet.
Blood running down the wood.
Finally resting on the ground
Soaked up by the...

Call Out To Me
Call out to Me
Hungry, thirsty, worried.
That’s what I am
Reaching out, longing and pleading.
Lost in a world of darkness.
Theres a penlight rolling around
The batteries are flat.
Too broke to buy new ones.
Fumbling in the dark.
Matches, they are...

Do As You'Re Told

We moan about our hardships,
But hardships are mostly brought about by ourselves.

When loneliness bite’s and red wine doesn’t help
And mowing the lawn makes you feel a little green,

Dear Jesus
Dear Jesus
I haven’t written in a while,

You make me know that everything will be ok!

The dogs are restless.
The birds have disappeared
The air is still, like its waiting!
We are in for a storm of note!

Shuffling With Shel
(Shuffling with Shel)
Ode to Shel Silverstein
The master taps across the stage
Wiggling rhymes upon his page
Tapping, leaping, letting go
Silly poems that steal the show.
Heel, shuffle,
Heel, step
Like A Runny Babbit
Falling up
Flap, heel, turn

His Warmth
HIS WARMTH
It’s hot outside,
But I am cold,
Bone chilling, icy cold.
There is no warmth to be found.
Objects are just objects, they have no feeling or warmth
You can hold them, but they can’t hold you back.

Passion
PASSION
It’s indescribable!
Something you either have or you don’t.
Only one so passionate can recognise it in another.
The way you sit, the way you hold yourself.
Bridled passion.
