Clouds
Scattered over
Seas
Washed over
Beds
Laid over
Stars
Reflected over
Skies
Covered over
Love falls over sands
Love sparkles over
Over moons
Engagements of love
Most days I would try to write a poem; it is a practice, as I suppose is meditation, or smiling, or watching the world go by
Clouds
Scattered over
Seas
Washed over
Beds
Laid over
Stars
Reflected over
Skies
Covered over
Love falls over sands
Love sparkles over
Over moons
Engagements of love
Sanguine synchronicity
Ramble on
Towards a far off indefinite infinity
Split in some search
For definition or divinity
Languid lucidity
Lope on; reverse the trend
For supplementary beneficiary
Tricked, in some dearth of doubt
Even anger, certain of duplicity
Where there’s hope there’s doubt
Where there’s doubt there’s hope
Walk with me to tomorrow
Talk with me today
Dulcet tones
On dewdrop morns
Sanguine synchronicity
Shattered sleep
In darkness deep
Languid lucidity
Sanguine synchronicity
Implicitly perceive some warmth
A winter morning glistens, glows
Languid lucidity
You leave me ever cold
A never rising dawn
Where there’s hope there’s doubt
Where there’s doubt there’s hope
Walk with me to tomorrow
Talk with me today
Whisper with excitement
Belief that it’s not incitement
But hold my hand so slow
Shout, scream
Rant and rave
Emptiness I am your slave
Hold hands
Pass the dream
Sanguine
Languid
Lucid synchronicity
Ramble, lope
No doubt, I hope
That broken branch
That second chance
The bilberry bush
That sudden rush
Walk on waves of expectation
Talk brave of imitation
Smokes are slave to infiltration
Choke and crave for intonation
The furrowed brow
That wonders how
The here and now
That sudden bow
Weave dreams of duplicity
Heave cream on complicity
Leave means leaf omnisciently
Grief reads quite implicitly
The weathered corn
That wakeful morn
The tortured scorn
That fated first, early born
Buy books for memories
Cry with rooks in cemeteries
Sigh looks for lots of sympathy
Liar’s hooks brought empathy
The snowbound hill
That evening thrill
The glass of wine
That love was mine
I leave myself hung so far out
I could be placed there to dry
But instead, if my feelings
I don’t let you astride
If my thoughts and hopes
Schemes and dreams
I do not open up for show
Then what will we bestow
What could we have become
How would we be the same
If nothing to do with being up above
If nothing to do with being in love
First thought would be nothing at all
And if that’s what it is, that is the call
But this is no ultimatum
Although a reply would be nice
This is no whinging sojourn
Into some soliloquy
I could bring you flowers
But that’s not what I meant
I’m trying to be wide open
Though not full-on letting go
I’m trying to find new found freedom
Yet also have the best of both
A female poet said to me
That when a woman says goodbye
Then usually it’s for forever
Because
It’s taken so long for her to say go
I don’t know if that’s true
I don’t know if it’s true for you
Or if it’s true at all
It seems quite unforgiving
A funny way of living
I hope we can
Occasionally be together
Yes that’s what I hope
And how far out goes the tether
Well I can but only hope
But I do agree
That constantly in one space
The place that for neither then is home
And it’s right that it’s your place
And that it’s up to me to roam
But I will have vacations
And weekends away
You know I’d like to visit
You know I like to write
I hope that
This is no intrusion
Let there be
No confusion
I do still love you
I love a you
That you don’t even know
That I know
I’ve swapped my touch of love
For one that’s unrequited
I’ve swapped my near you love
For now I’m uninvited
Though unrequited is quite handy
You’re with me now I’m sure
Yes uninvited is quite handy
Sitting on the southern shore
I’ll steal from Mister Arnold
I’ll steal from Master Keats
Yes unrequited is quite handy
When stealing from the Beats
It is a new found freedom
Writing what and when I like
The spite and haste are put aside
On this new found magic carpet ride
It is a somewhat different Journey
Not known in the several stages of grief
It is a distinct overtly stranger journey
My past mind kind of that I leave
Rattle on the rail track
Verges merge behind
Chattel’s up the smoke stack
Uninvited; do you mind, thank you kind
I’ve read all the papers
Cheap at half the price
Reading rooms are quite a caper
Unrequited; don’t ask twice, that’s nice
The tone is turned and twisted
Freedom once again to roam
The tome is weighted, but I’m not listed
I wonder, but only in a philosophic way
