Our dreams to longer ponder

For those of us, who are boys no longer

Those boys and girls, who are only left to dream

Boy, she sure brings those dreams much more closer

Close and mean she brings along the longer dream


For days and daze in summer sun she wanders

Days to see, to dream our old forgotten dreams

A skin of silk, a bosom without blemish

Thongs embrace, place for dreams to longer ponder


Oh yellow frock, your smock don’t shock or mock me

My feelings peel, I steal away to in my dreams reveal

A cappuccino, a writer’s hand upon my shoulder

Boy, I’m growing older, pray fold away my dreams

Not lonely, moments

These only, not lonely

My own

Only

Not lonely, moments


Only my own

Once lonely

Now only

My own, not lonely, moments


Moments

My own

Only my

My moments


Only, only

My only

My own

Moments only

Leaving gaps to wander through

Your mind was searching

For your favourite song

But you needed peace and quiet

Or some divine intervention


Those days you tripped

Your memory slipped

Turned down a gear or two

Leaving gaps to wander through


Your mind was searching

It’s become a fashion thing to lose

You do it with a passion

Like a fever not to choose


Those days you dipped

Those drinks you sipped

Slowed down the inner you

Leaving gaps to wander through




For Mark

Bridge across the sky

Thousands of miles away

Across so so many seas

Where are your thoughts at this moment


Can you stop, just now

Think of this place

Across so so many seas


Take a moment

A small mobile meditation

Close your eyes

Bridge across the sky


Thousands of miles away

Your muse, your love, your tree

Across so so many seas


Did you feel the fleeting thought

Grasp that visualisation flash

Across so so many seas


Less than separate minds

In splitting seconds bind

Touching skins together fly, bridge across the sky


Thousands of miles away

Your friend, your love, your free

Across so so many seas


Caught that synapse strobing

Mind depths you were probing

Together, across so so many seas


Now there’s intermingling

Souls engaged, lattice leaves, layers lingering

Open your eyes; you’ve bridged across the skies

Forlorn four leaf clover

Daisy chain, one more refrain

Forlorn four leaf clover


Buttercup, something’s coming up

Sojourn, among the pampas


Herb garden, Cardigan bay

Mourn, a summer’s lover’s passing


Cabbage patch, locks off the latch

Storm brewing, crow clouds in the sky


Potato fields, his torch she wields

Warm autumn’s harvest festival
