Premium Member Hark

Hark,
Listen,
Summer has arrived,
you can hear it in the pulsing air.

Watch it 
as insects busily work.
Rushing to collect and pollinate
knowing time ticks on relentlessly.

See it
in the burst of colour. 
Drink in the heady scents
of blankets of rampant flowers.

Feel it 
as you gently touch blossoms
feeling grasses brush against your legs.
Hold and hug the gnarled old oak
with it's rough textured bark.

Taste it
in the Summer berries
that burst with flavour as you eat them.
In salads and tomato's  and plump peas.

Savour
Summer's bounties
soak up the hot rays and bask in them
whilst surrounded by sweet Summer scent.

Premium Member Dear Gracious and Loving Father

Dear gracious and loving father
you have been to me so kind
holding me close in your grip
pouring your truth into my mind

Your truth is my constant food
I love it's taste and flavour
it satisfies my once barren soul
gives me true character to savour

How can I thank you enough
for choosing me for redemption
sending your son in my place
to die for my salvation

Your faithfulness knows no bounds
promising to stick with me always forever
divine presence and peace my portion
with grace and mercy pouring like a river

Oh father your love is everlasting
I bow before you in humble gratitude
keep me believing in your eternal son
as in your truth I have stood

Yours in heavenly adoration
your son of divine adoption

Half-Light

Those early morning walks not long ago,
through quiet fields, bathing in citrine tones,
the sunrise in no hurry, pace is slow,
gift-wrapped dawn, a present for me alone.
But now, like river waters in a drought,
daylight contracts, I savour every sip,
the late month's arms of night are spreading out
on shorter days they now tighten their grip.
A sombre season, this, my mood is low,
a melancholy feeling fills my chest
sun sinks behind it's shroud, I watch it go,
wish I could sail off with it to the west.
Each night I feel it's loss but should not mourn,
for our sunset is someone else's dawn.

Premium Member Foggy Bottom


     The cold fog rises from the meadow like smoke from Poppy's pipe...
... ever upward with the sweet savour of meadow grass. 
My bare feet, like mortar and pestle, smash out the green scent as I walk through the wet dew, chilled and sprinkled with drops of water. 
     Goosebumps chase each other up my legs to tender, pebbled breasts. I cross my arms for warmth and blow out a quivering cloud of warm breath. 
     Revealed now,  the rugged brown trunks of the trees surrounding me in the distance.
     They wave the fog away, as I've seen Mamaw do with Poppy's pipe smoke...
... with twisting limbs that sway in the breeze.

Premium Member A Shroud

A Shroud

Eyes of Autumn green, permeate the serenity of my skies.
Our worlds, they seem to be stone cold – impervious to my silent cries.
With each encounter- every passing moment – something dies
within – for what is within may never take wing – nothing flies.
This day – in the air -  hangs heavy, vailed with oppressive sadness.
It is this hollowness, this emptiness, that i seem to want to caress
with my thoughts, my feelings, all causing such excruciating stress
upon this life, already blanketed by a deep  darkness, a bleak abyss.

Fate – she be a black hole – this exquisite lady that devours
my heart, my soul – yet seldom and only for a few hours –
during our brief moments, yet my spirit soars past the bowers
as I come to realize, believe that nothing  beyond, flowers.

This beautiful garden I see, seems to be made of stone,
preferring to leave me sterile, lost and alone.
Desire – what a mate she would be – such a cruel fate,
for she leaves us, shipwrecked upon the shore, with a full slate 

of all the years that have gone before, not a light to be shone
upon a possible future, no future to break at early dawn.
Our worlds, you have separated with this heavy curtain
leaving me wondering ?, guessing ?, so very uncertain.

Ravenous is the monster !!!, as she eats away at herself,
and us of age – time – we will never be putting on a shelf
for another day, so best be taking hold of every opportunity 
- smell it, taste it, feel it, savour it and be what we will be !
The moments that are given to us, let us not let them slip away,
let them live, give them a full life , do not wait another day,
for life passes, so quickly away, moments come but never stay. 
To know what you will not give, this is what I pray !

Since He nourishes us with His grace-flavour
While we worship Him along His mercy’s favour.

Premium Member Time Is On My Side

I’d catch you if I could 
But timing’s never good.


You gifted me joy, gave me grief, 
Inflicted wounds, granted relief. 

Broke me down then healed me anew - 
Challenged my courage through and through. 

When darkness shadow fell upon 
Your steady hands brought me to dawn.

You changed me from callous to kind, 
You opened up my shuttered mind. 

When my distress was in dispute, 
You proved forwards’ the only route. 

Tirelessly you taught me how 
To savour every bit of now. 

You formed me fine and aged me too, 
But I don’t hold it against you. 

You are my long term constant friend 
As I’m yours to the very end. 

Forever I’d hold you nearby, 
If only, Time, you didn’t fly.
