Twinkling crystals up,
As far as the eye can see,
See starlight splendour.

I look out over the water,
As far as the eye can see,
I feel a peace in my soul,
There's tranquility....

when the sun prepares to set
on a sunflower field that stretches
as far as the eye can see
magic's surely about to happen

Beach balls, umbrellas, shells from the sea
Envision castles in the sand
Able to see as far as the eye can see
Catch a wave, a ray for the perfect tan
Hawaii is the destination for all of these

Its all you see everywhere,
Pavement hugging,
And beer blankets,
Puke as far as the eye can see,
A sea of puke for a world,
Where the latin name for life,
Is jokus sickus,
Oh and the bubble gum,
Is from the 80's ego bubble....

Growing from a sugar vein
in fields as far as the eye can see
are sticky stalks of pithy cane
bending the breeze a symphony
Born upon machete mouths
Held in sun soaked hands
Exhale moisture from the clouds
to inhale sugar from the sand....

fields of corn
as far as the eye can see
from horizon to horizon
golden tassels wave
at a never-ending blue sky
allowing only occasional
gossamer wisps of clouds
to break the monotony

I'd play your strings so gently
It would be just like the kiss
Of a breeze across the prairie
Or the falling of a mist
On a field of brilliant orchids 
As far as the eye can see
I'd play your strings and they would sing
Sweet nothings back to me...

The clouds are soft and white,
as far as the eye can see.
The sky is the background.
The artist is no where to be found.
I wonder who the artist is.
Suddenly, I hear a voice.
Not the kind that is spoken.
The artist has spoken to my heart.
The artist is God!...

I love you, your simple being and presence completes me
I love you, to the ends of the Earth as far as the eye can see
I love you, more than anything I’ve ever owned
I love you, more than anyone I’ve ever known
I love you, so much so that you’ll never be able to see
I love you, like you love me...

Imagine a world without colour

How bleak it would be

Our universe grey and lifeless

As far as the eye can see


We take colour for granted

Yet it puts the life into our world….enriching our souls

Today, l truly appreciate colour

For colouring our earth…..beautiful and bold

Far off the beaten path,
There is an endless sky,
Filled with glittering diamonds,
The swollen moon,
Casts its yellow glow,
Over the rolling hills,
That stretch,
As far as the eye can see.
Insects hum in harmony.
The wind,
Swinging from a willow branch,
Whispers it's praise
To the nights peaceful melody....

I walk these streets all bourbon eyed.
Where I wish I left a legacy.
Nothing but burned bridges
as far as the eye can see.

Counting down, 
its always come down to you.

You refuse to share your history.
But together were bound
by inherited symmetry.

Sweet is the journey,
so hold tight
ever so tenderly....

One day on the trampoline, my nephew, aiming for the tree,
overshot his leap and jumped as far as the eye can see.
If you squint hard enough
you'll see it in the buff;
a minuscule dot orbiting the galaxy!



NOTE: My nephew Ethan is one of those kids where it's not enough to say he's skinny (if he inhaled enough helium I wonder the possibilities of him floating away)....

Dawn’s sunrise
with the ocean tide low
reveals new shells, like jewels aglow

Mollusk’s homes
recently vacated
just waiting to be excavated

Shapes and size
of wide variety
laid out as far as the eye can see

Rolling waves
will soon come to reclaim
these low-tide jewels of ocean fame

like a chocolate crust pie
is the flat-topped ridge
of a nearby large mountain

Topping mountain pie
as far as the eye can see . . .
luscious raspberry pink sky

high white coalescing clouds
trim the twilight’s slice of sky . . .
dollops of whipped cream

I close my eyes and see
Flower tipped waves.
Purple coloured tram lines
As far as the eye can see.
I’m transported to Provence
Or I’m with the monks on Caldey Island.
A scented calm washes over me
My mind as come to rest
the power of a flowers fragrance
this day does not now feel so daunting
the trials can come and go.
This poem is brought to you by Frebreze
and my creative imagination....

Drenched in a torrent of unequalled censure
I vow to never again undertake this venture
Alas my woes are never over I fear
So feebly untimely my arrival of tears
Adieu I bid to this mollycoddled life
Although humour it seems so full of strife
To get and beget are choices I made
Now to lie in this grave for myself I have laid 
Stretching for as far as the eye can see
I transgress yet again to this person I call me...

I behold the seagulls
In their graceful flight,
With outstretched wings
What  magnificent sight.

I glance over the water
As far as the eye can see,
I feel a peace in my soul;
Complete tranquility. 

Some love the mountains,
Others the hot desert sand,
But I'm closest to my God
Where the ocean meets the land.

Surrounded by sea mist,
Seaweed, seagulls and shells,
I commune with my Lord,
His mysteries foretell....

An archway of oaks lead you upwards
As you rise above the crowds.
The sounds of everyday life fades away.
A castle ruins silhouetted against a fading sun.
And a patchwork view of fields as far as the eye can see.
I lay near the summit breathing heavy
And looking for my home on the horizon.
The sun warming my face and the view my soul.
Only a moat to breach now and victory will be mine.
Beeston castle vanquished , once again....

Thunder clouds roll back, rain does succomb
shepheards emerge their flock
sunrays, brightens the horizon
mountain range, as far as the eye can see

The far distance , a sand block castle
the fore ground a humble village
goats lapping  the bulging lake
sparrows emerging with song thrush

As children run playfully from their home
pointing to the sky, rainbow a picture
two lovers take to the lake,she seated
he stood, poll rowing....

The waves are crashing,
Under them I am drowning,
Fighting them I am thrashing
As this wave is crowning,

Fear engulfs me
As the sea surrounds.
When I open my eyes I can’t see
All I can hear is deafening sounds.

Crystal caves,
Translucent sea,
The home of many graves,
As far as the eye can see.

Trapped underneath,
Unable to get free,
I’m crushed beneath
All the fear that resides within me.

I am drowning,
Can’t you see?...

Waves of blue extend as far as the eye can see
raising high above the leafless treetops I dwell
a turquoise statue rests in the parkway
broken kneecaps and fingers but I don't know who
is attributed this honor dressed in flags of red
I close my eyes and imagine the battle scar
at Fort Sheridan where settlers dreams came true
A black bird glides down upon this glory
the sun starts shining through the clouds
and my thoughts wander to visions of you...

A drawbridge,a yellow carriage ground a glaring orange,grass so very green,sky and water blue in a frame of gold.Peach,plum and apricot the orchard passion cannot last.As if in a dream  the a starry night,the cypresses over a field of corn,great sunflowers in a symphony of yellow,blue fields as far as the eye can see in exaggerated proportions to the  eyes whether to advantage ,or not, and those intangible thrills to the core in this search for conception....
