Premium Member Infinite Ocean

Love is a ripple
In the ocean that is life:
Resembling vast waves,
Echoes of love flow stronger
As the ripple moves onwards.

Stars and Moon Await

Floating embers swivel golden flames go up 
towards marked enclaves a midnight sky 
skywards and onwards the stars and moon await

I

I

Laughing as to the reasons i forget

Onwards i

Searching for clouds on which to step

I 

I regress 

And wonder less

Glad That You Are Here

Maybe the days onwards
and nights to come
will not be wonderful
will not be beautiful
but at least I am so
glad that you are here.

Faith and hope calming things down:
Overcoming waits.
Navigating victories,
God’s guidance, leading us on;

Blossoming onwards
Know you’re worthy of success;
God…navigating…

Like flowers of spring,
Your destiny is assured;

Rowing towards your greatness;

Tinkering over the pebbles
flowing freely onwards
smoothly
leaving in its wake soft ripples
as it travels homewards
blithely.

Premium Member A Mountain Climbing

A Mountain climbing I will go
over the foot paths
Over the cobble stones
Up and up I go step by step
higher and higher I climb
Over the boulders and over the rocks 
Onwards and upwards
to the tip pity top I go.

That Smiley Exterior

That smiley exterior 
Onwards from morn
Once you had worn
Now drabbly overlayed with
Its own sort. Lorn.

I refer to this manor.
Old; ghostly blown
Tempts none; be known!
Droopy, empty windowed. Of
Ravens outflown.

we are
        moving
together
       side
         by
            side
onwards
upwards,
our future
         awaits,
one with the other

The Future Is Unwritten

The future is unwritten.


Stop-go motion; let all the clocks be smashed.
Forwards or backwards; how do you feel about that?
Onwards and upwards; no turning back.
The future is unwritten, so here is a pen and a notepad.

Onwards

When you reminisce on me
Don’t look on our memories in sadness
But be happy for everything we shared together
And be happy, for I’ve gone on

Life hurt
But life also made me happy
Life made me smile

So I hope you remember me
And smile
And I hope you go on with life
And keep smiling

Beyond the Yonder

What lies beyond?
Far over yonder,
What? You wonder,
And you ponder.

Is it lush like dreams?
A land esteemed?
Or arid and bleak,
Lacking even a creek?

Provisions you gather,
Prepare to wander,
Onwards you saunter,
Go forth and discover!

It

Glutinous IT oozes, seeping IT displays
Odious IT's intent, to trap and waylays
Onwards to IT's purpose, IT suffers no delays
As darkness descends, IT could be end of days
IT circuitously trapped us, in IT's complex ways
Grotesquely IT's inhuman, as our skin IT flays

If I Was a Lighthouse

If I was a lighthouse 
By Michelle Morris
24/06/2023

If I was a lighthouse
I'd shine like a beautiful star
My light would echo onwards
Shining brightly and oh, so far

All I'd ever have to do
Is think loving thoughts of you
It would shine from inside my soul
Deep and pure and true

Encounters

In the corner of my left eye
The full moon
In the corner of my right eye
Someone familiar

On front of me 
The pavement, a concrete conveyor belt
Confusion of the city obscures
Annoyingly 

In a blink the moon and the someone familiar
Disappear behind things

Other thoughts are conveyed to me
I wonder onwards

Omens and Wings

Random thots
Two hornbills
On a grevillea tree
I look at them eat seed
They soar noisily onwards
Towards the next seedy tree
Send pigeons I had asked Of
Hornbills problems am reminded
There is no washing your hands off
No pigeon just a couple of noisy hornbills
Resting on one neglected grevillea branch
