Rises and falls
Expands and deflates
Silently softly
Beautiful breath
What makes the breath breathe
Its not conscious me
Amazing this engine that
Breathes itself easily
Beautiful Breath
The Roses In My Garden
The roses in my garden
Came to visit for a while
Each day another blossomed
Each day they made me smile
In the morning hour their fragrance
Soothed and warmed my waking heart
Simple beauty just unfolding
Living strokes of nature’s art

Conversation With My Heart
I love you my heart
I am so sorry
I’ve been taking you for granted
I am sorry I had a lot of stress in my life
And this hurt you
It made you contract and feel tense
And not your normal strong self
I am sorry that I only see that now
Please forgive me
I really do love you
And I am so grateful for what you do for me
And to have you so I can live my life
Awww shucks, thanks buddy, it’s ok
I appreciate you recognising me at last
That’s all I needed Continue reading

Now I Go Gently and Quietly
Now I go gently and quietly

Bitter Sweet As Turkish Coffee
Bitter sweet as Turkish Coffee
Is this my star crossed love affair
Sweet and dark and tastes exotic
Rich aroma fills the air
Delicious sip can’t live without it
Deep dark mystery captivates
It lifts me up awakes my senses
Stimulates and fascinates
But oh that bitter twist beguiling
Enraptured captured I’m enthralled
Intoxicating moment’s over
A deeper mystery now calls Continue reading

I Feel You
When you talk
I feel you
When you breathe
I feel you
And its like…..
A morning sunrise
Gentle in the sky

I Imagine Heaven
I Imagine Heaven
I lie awake at night
I toss and I turn, can’t sleep at all
Though we’re far apart
My heart wants to know when will you call
Don’t know when I will see
The other part of me, its been a long time
How can my heart survive
I’m only half alive, when I’m without you
So I imagine heaven
The touch of your lips
The look in your eyes that hypnotise me Continue reading
He Sleeps Alone
Tonight he sleeps alone
His chest rises and falls
In his quiet room
Lying still, so still
Tired, so deeply tired
Too tired even to dream Continue reading
Glorious Sun
A miracle of light
Warm power emerges from behind the cloud
Sun streams down to my thirsty body and soul
Bathing quenching generously strongly powerfully
Recharging my inner batteries
And then in a moment its gone Continue reading
Heavenly Rose
Heavenly heart soothing scent of the rose
Even as it harbours the fly and the tiny spider
Not sure who today has become who’s prey
Still the rose releases without condition
Its love fragrance to the world
Blind to its beauty until today when I stop to look Continue reading
Love Has Set Me Free
When life just gets me down
On the days when I can hardly carry on
Where is the answer to this yearning heart of mine?
I rest and think of you
.
Soft as the breeze is to the trees
Light as the jasmine in the coolness of the morn
Warm as the sunshine in the air
Your love is always there Continue reading
