Last 24 hoursRemembrancer
truth is a shape-shifter some protean sea foam frothiness prima materia impossible co-existence of surface tension fictions and deep mythic elements flowing through the currents of time from the carcass release the bees to nurture life’s restorative trees the sweetness of honey rediscovered in the depth of our psyche the taste of logos; self revelation we are present once again emerging memory expressed through our minds, hearts and hands
Cold the day
Cold the day Looks so grey Dark the night Blind from sight Not so proud Black my shroud I fall and kneel I cannot heal Never calm Thoughts i darn I have no plan So life is damned
Words a solution
Words a solution When a mind is pollution A help in thought When a sentence is caught Depth and confusion Pollution with no conclusion Thoughts of offence Use deep words of defence Words they can sing Good news words can bring No one can steal Kind words that do heal

In God we see
In god we seek When thoughts are weak In prayers we cry The need to ask why In god we trust Till the last bread crust Hunger and thirst Till the clouds burst In god we love human one blood We fear the sickle With fallen tears which trickle In god we hope Never to slip on a slope We fear all harm But heaven is calm
To Reason
Church bells ring Choirs sing Candles and light Stars are bright Organs play Hands to pray Good the preacher God the teacher Bible story Hope and glory Miracles to heal Faith to feel Love and heart A brand new star Beginning and end Angels descend
Words that care
Words that care And those we share Those spoke in our fear Make us shed a tear A frozen heart Can thaw and start The coldest vein's Need warmth from pain Some thoughts have shadows So think of spring meadows Don't be cool in the dark You'll be prey for the shark
Money
Money spins A gravy train Pounds that grow With drought and thirst A thunderstorm Life it rains Covers me Then down the drain The price you pay cash for thought And everyday It's burnt away
Finding Me
I'm tossed about by the idea of change, A vessel on water in the rain. You're neither here nor there, But my mind ventures anyway. I've learned to find still in the shifting. Comfort in a distant self nearing. That though I can't reach you, I can find me in the process.
Butterfly Part 7
Pure white,The cabbage butterfly With white angel wings Floating the breeze As the faint wind hums and sings In glory and triumph On the breathe of the wind Feeling the soft tune With a rhythm and sway A heart fleeting melody Captures and holds the wind Pure white in grace With gods hymns we sing pure white is perched,feeling the warmth of the day So goodbye,To pure white,Please come back,Another day,
Butterfly Part 6
Pure white,I feel for you,In grace and wonder My thoughts begin to roam,pure white,Do you recognise my light My soul is warm,No shadow is cast Does pure think am just a stone mast Pure white,so still,for ten minutes or more Am rigid,my movement is stillness,Am holding my breath But i have to let go, it is So relaxed The day is full of warmth from the sun My eyes do watch,Now strain for a rest A second look at the cap of my shoe, Pure white has disappeared,vanished from sight I feel a slight sadness,but it's a gracious day So pure white had things to do,He had fluttered away,
