Uncrossed Poems

True Voice

...Times when I've run out of rope,
out of second chances, out of hope,
and I don't know what to do - 
I'm all alone and lost.
I've been too harshly tossed.
I'm drowning in a river, uncrossed.

The Road Back

...There is a silence before the fall—
not the absence of sound, but the heaviness of it,
thick as fog, as thick as the space between heartbeats,
when every thought crowds the same narrow room.

Buddy Breathing

"Buddy Breathing" 

Ten leagues below
the bed of the ocean in my heart,
strange creatures exist,
they guard the gate 
of all things that 
have past 

the sound of the...

Backspace

...I already understand that children  
grow inside two blinks,
as quickly as the novel Mayfly
comes to the surface to die. 

I'm pining for those first days again, 
of edentate smiles, milestones...

Solicitude

...The trees save our secrets in their leaves,
And the stars offer guidance to the lost.
Wear your heart on your lips, not your sleeves,
And walk with me, fingers uncrossed....

Inside the Moonlit Greenhouse: Part II

...Now all that remains is a silver framed photograph
A reminder of when there was a splitting of paths
Between one realm and the other, a bridge uncrossed
One day to be readjourned, but for now is j...

Unfinished

...Another sunset slipped away.
Another full moon missed.
Another fair maid perished young,
before she was held and kissed.

Another book, unfinished.
Another poem, lost.
A lonely "I", undotted.

Stars Crossways

...They came together, love entwined,
When stars in heaven were aligned.
But their love hit a hurdle,
When their vinaigrette failed to curdle,
Their blitz emulsification ill-fated,
leaving oil and ...

The White Horse of Cherhill

...I am all over Wiltshire
High up on the hills
I am immune from fire
To tourists I give thrills

You can see me from afar
By plane, on foot or in a car
I am as old as time can be
Many people ha...

The Little Bridges

...Stubbs Park is decorously rampant,
its paths scamper here and there
                            like unruly children.

The original landscapers ran riot,
for they planted arching spans

Borderless Mobs

...We have evolved over the years
As a people with a way of life
We have learnt of a new way
To express our anger at every passing day.

They say you only die once,
But today you have an option

I Wish

...I have wished on the morning star
to help us find the way we've lost,
the kindness we gave without cost.
The love...it now seems very far--
a ship that's lost is what we are.
Beliefs have become...

Big Blue Ball

...This ball is mainly water as are we;
touch Mother Earth and hear her soulful cries
and climate is ruled most by air and sea.
Stare into space beyond where science lies.

a phrase that can’t be spun
inhaling your exhaust
