Dreamer

If I bring you my dreams...

would you swathe me in stars?

Beneath your gentle weight 

our bodies breathe as one...

that only my hands...

Sorrow's Wrinkles

The sun gifts hope's light 

to all that is possible 

bleaches out the grey

irons out sorrow's wrinkles

from trials of yesterday

Marionette

My ruffled thoughts 

unravel before you 

threadbare...

I stand 

Delicately dishevelled

a mere Marionette

...I am

You mend my 

broken heartstrings 

beautifully bewitched

by your 

...commands

I dance to the tune

of true-love's promise

upon my soul

I bear...

your brand

Conjuring

memories

Painting

your body's 

work... of art

Evoking 

the taste 

of you 

Oh, such

You and I

I collect words and memories, thread as coloured-glass beads upon chain

I drink moonlight and the sunset's elixir until I'm merry and mildly insane

I devour, with empathy, others' sorrow until my positive-hued thoughts imbrue

I see windows of broken rainbows in your eyes,

with no pots of gold... just blue 

You only see the darkling encroach, a daemonic dragon disturbed from its lair

You abuse a vast spectrum of potent poisons, seeking out self-loathing and despair

You rip repeatedly with your toxic-tinged tongue, at the fragility of my being

You are the epitome of incompatibility but love's astral-balance depends not, upon seeing 

We'll smelt our doubts and differences in the fireless forge of our bodies entwined 

We'll taste, from the wounds of each other, until our star-traversed souls are aligned

We'll walk upon dreams, with caution, knowing duplicity's jeopardy may await 

We'll carry each other's fears and frivolities until divine interfusion becomes fate

Sea at slumber

Eurovision

It's time to gather

around the set

To watch our act

We cross our fingers

#PayItForward

So let's pay it forward so that others can eat 

So let's pay it forward just by moving our feet 

Let's take part in a marathon, a sponsored hike

Let us climb Ben Nevis or wherever you'd like 

When you buy coffee, pay for another in lieu 

That way someone less-fortunate will have one too 

Just by letting a mother and toddler jump queue

You may gift her an hour's sleep, when there's been too few

So let's pay it forward so that children can learn 

So let's pay it forward so they're able to earn 

Let's bake a cake for a coffee morning or fair 

Let's get a new summer look and donate our hair

As it can be that simple to help change a life

Of someone who's struggling amidst life's taxing strife

Easy to be apathetic when wealth is rife 

But imagine suffering... your children, your wife

So let's pay it forward and show others we care 

So let's pay it forward with our blessings let's share 

Let's hold open the door, for those whom are in pain 

Let's deem capabilities... we're not all the same

When we have some loose change, let's give it a good cause

Donate toys, clothes; become an all year Santa Claus 

When we sieve our perceptions through judgemental gauze 

We isolate the vulnerable, pass fascist laws

So let's pay it forward, enhance the human race

So let's pay it forward, let's light up someone's  face

So let's pay it forward, let's acknowledge the need 

So let's pay it forward let's not wallow in greed!

Lindisfarne

Oh, Lindisfarne with your coast so fair

I crave your breeze to flow through my hair 

As you absolve all my worries and cares

Oh, Lindisfarne with your coast so fair 

Oh, old Holy Isle a solace for so many

I offload my woes when they're feeling heavy 

Gives me hope and peace when there isn't any 

Oh, old Holy Isle a solace for so many

Oh, Lindisfarne with your brushstroke skies

Through your beauty I'm bequeathed new eyes

From my inauthentic life you cut all ties 

Oh, Lindisfarne with your brushstroke skies

Oh, old Holy Isle you echo history

From your castle, cliffs and monastery

Through your whispered wisdom I am set free

Oh, old Holy Isle you echo history

Oh, dear Lindisfarne of sacred grace 

No one's left bereft, feeling displaced

You envelope with love; I feel embraced

Oh, dear Lindisfarne of sacred grace

Beltane

Beltane, "Bright Fire" is here again

We've been set free from winter's chains

Now spring has conquered, light will reign

The darkness slain, the darkness slain

Sun radiates her healing heat

Decked homes with gay, May flowers sweet

We all give thanks, make merry, eat 

On dancing feet, on dancing feet 

In times of old, a "feast" of fun 

Bright bonfires lit, mimicked the sun 

Where man and woman became one   

Conceiving sons, conceiving sons 

Now, the Sun of Righteousness shines

I reclaim what's lost, what is mine 

Reawakened... soul realigned 

My heart consigned, my heart consigned
