My nose pressed flat against the pane
A yearning welled within,
A sigh,a shrug,I shuffle off
Childhood was rationed then....

We met and
Talked so easily,
A rapport upon first sight.
With lips caressed
in our empassioned embrace
Desire welled within,
A response to love's invite....

This evening
Sheathed by sky
I saw my dad
In the clouds
Watching over me
Tears welled
His eyes said
stop
Go on
Im here
Watching
Kia kaha
Be strong
You are enough
You always have been...

the time
you held
my face
in your hands,

tears welled up
in my eyes,
ready to fall,
ready to rain
down my skin.

but in my heart,
i always knew
that we were
meant to say

goodbye....

Desire
welled within-

oblivious before 
but now i know
the painful lie
that stirred below

behind the masks
you hid so well
the ghastly face
on which the curtain fell

the ache and pain
that welled within
the truth revealed
the tears begin....

My first thoughts
I no longer recall
Been billions of years
In the universal wall
Welled up in time and space
When we leave we leave no trace
Just humans behind
Our spirits slip through time
Taking us to where
Wherever love is there...

   He had something to say
     committed it to memory
   Savored it on the way
     home at the end of the day 

   Sat down to write it out
     tears welled up from his heart
   Whatever it was had flown away
     nothing left to do but pray

We had
met and conversed,
a rapport on first sight-
a chance meeting to a life's time
delight
that
Summer
evening silken,
long..an encounter of
initiations together
explored
as
Desire
welled within-
words became a promise
so sublime,to love now and for
all time....

Drip like drip
Like dripping wet weather.
Drip by drip
By dint of dripping wet wearied cheeks.
Drip from drip
Away from my tears welled up dripping wet eyes.
Drip like a drip.
Like a rain droplets
Dropdown my fury.
Dropdown my worry.
Dropdown my envy.
Dropdown my enmity....

DAVID+BATHSHEBA-AN ODE
Desire filled his face,
it lingered like perfumeof love,there was no trace

Passion welled within,
deceit fuelled by need-
this fire turned to sin

Lust failed to satisfy,
though power reigned supreme-
their child,stlll was to die

Damn it's hard
For me to love
To embrace
My inclination, to separate.

I apart of
Something.
And again
I rush to you.

Complete strangers
More than a month ago.
We've wept
I've welled
With simple human warmth.

This day of our departures
I fantasied
That we are one inside....

When you close your eyes and smile,
that's life.
When you see around and happily take a sigh,
that's life.
When you don't have to count hours but time just flies,
that's life.
When you eagerly wait to run and learn, 
that's life.
When you have the true realisation, eyes welled up,
Then you are alive!...

Do you ever get the feeling your all welled up inside? Tears start to pour and its something you can't hide.
The feeling of so much joy and love; 
like water over flowing from a big wash tub.
Your heart grows so big it feels like its coming out of your chest;
Its the moments like this that I love the BEST!...

Give me a bit of credit,
I was told that's how you fed it.
The hole in your sole,
filled with bright light,
shone from a lover with deep insight.
welled up with feelings all warm and driven,
completeness remains,
a love that is given.
a heart made aware,
a long to receive.
give give give

yo lover don't leave!...

Rendering "God of Miracles" hymn

my heart throbbed fast against nervousness angst

while tears welled for blessed blissful thanksgiving* praise

the Lord verily understands

knowing my frame.

*Psalm 69:30 I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnify him with thanksgiving.

I heard the call of the ocean
It spoke to me in my dreams
A young Indian woman met me there
She spoke of the old ways in me
She pointed out to a whale
She said can you hear him speak
I heard a whisper from his spirit
He said Live your dreams
Tears welled up in my eyes
A swift hand wiped them away
Dont be sad my sister
Tomorrow's a new day...

a wax tear formed
on redwood heart
in the dark
yet lit by many
a candle wick
my dry eyes wet

acapella soars
blood sweat tears
adorns
welled up
wall to wall
ascent

hearts rent
and bound
in grief
silent, deafening
defeating
lies

spurs on healing
stoked by
perspective
straight candlesticks
proud, on fire
a Holy Spirit spire
