oh ye excellent
oh ye excellent
song for lovers
in full respect
a night of togetherness
puluc regress
sung in saltation
warm this night
gowns and tuxedos
the wine is alright
Lovers of evening
dine and dance
music so gracful
thank the mastro
when you get a chance
Lovers of evening
d
mingle with lovers
of night
oh ye excelllent everythings alright
In the soil of trust
Once a seed was sown
Water of sweat
Sunshine of love
Warmth of care
Openness of air
A sapling was born
The beginning of a bond
But fate played along
A saltation was brought
Gloomy clouds took hold
Heavy tears to behold
The once calm air
Carried whispers of betrayal
Now a vicious seed was sown
Trust sucking parasite was born
It left the soil barren
The end of a beautiful bond
The end of a beautiful bond
After The Funeral
Tim had found his place after the party. Faring well in his urn he waited to be scattered. Compartmentalised, fragmented and united into two batches of memories.
Indian Ocean
Passionate love on beaches
Drift wood adventures
His friends and family celebrated his life. Lit a fire, gathered smoke and cherished what pastures had given them. Salutation, saltation and salt on sad skin. They rejoiced in ambivalent moments of loss and beginning. That was the easy bit. But Tim had always been eccentric and maybe the waves were too smooth on their own. Easy had not been his domain. Always up to challenges and arduous paths, het set a task even in death. ‘Go tell it on the mountain’.
Climb Mount Everest
Fresh air healthy exercise
Dust sprinkled on snow
Would his children rise up to the dare and defiance? Could they respect final wishes? Was it one step too far? Had it been jest and on whom was the joke? Strides upon strides they stumbled to the top of the world. Caressed their blisters and bridged ascent in meaning and closure.
Serene harmony
Stunning demise flying high
Carbon clouds condensed
Ripped Ripples
When she dived off the bridge ripples broke free from the surface
Her throbbing heart had thumped a pounding shiver into darkness
Concentric circles brought a mirror image to the bottom of the river
Tampered with undulations and quivers’ hesitation now absolved
Strafed yet scarfed she placed layer upon layer into a slumbering swirl
One never jumps into the same river twice she pondered as she
Cherished the everlasting moment of lonely saltation with no return
