The moon and I,
we are like that –
She said…
crossing her fingers,
behind her back.
The sun and I,
I cannot lie…
We crossed our paths
behind a cloud,
his face does hide.
The world and I,
we are as one,
soul mates and lovers,
a trilogy –
with the moon and sun.

I read my old love poems,
the other day,
they made me look desperate,
in a cloying kind of way.
What was I thinking,
when I wrote those?
Possessive and needy,
I cringe to my toes.
I really did love you,
of that there’s no doubt,
but it seems quite absurd,
now, the way it came out.
Although I look back,
I was only a child,
I think that I thought,
I was dangerous and wild!

Vision of purity
Adamantine Noble Lord
Jewel in the lotus
Revered for your calm
Assuredly present beyond
Space or time
A cleanser of Death – Oh
Tantric delight
Turning my heart to
Visualise you, always so present
A sacred shared vow

Sitting in the gardens,
admiring flower beds,
will you still remember me,
when I am long dead?
Reflections on my past life,
no longer hurt my heart,
for they are now just stories,
from which I am apart.
Mental chatter ceases,
calm imbues my soul,
wisdom and compassion,
start to make me whole.
Although I’m reminiscing,
of all that never was,
I still miss you dearly,
no reason just – because…

Do me a favour,
when you die –
leave me a kiss,
up, in the sky.

I look in the mirror,
and what do I see?
A face staring back,
that’s simply not me.
I open my heart,
and what do I find?
A limitless space,
compassionate and kind.
I open my mouth,
and what tumbles out?
Harmonious words,
with truth and no doubt.
I search in my head,
what goes on in there?
A radiant mind,
pure, like clear mountain air.

Sunrise 2 (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
When the day is over,
the work has all been done,
the twilight is upon us,
moon outstrips setting sun.
I take my rest with comfort,
to reflect on days well spent,
pay homage, offer gratitude,
lessons learned in the event.
With stillness and with clarity,
with wisdom and with heart,
I think of all my good friends,
who show me where to start.
The lessons, I have newly learned
from them, they show the way,
inspiring birth of sunrise
springs forth valiant new day.

Sapphire seas,
tourmaline trees,
the sun shining sweetest nectar.
I soar in the skies,
whilst skimming the seas,
protected by Isis and Hector.
The stars line the way,
whilst the trees bow to me,
and the gulls cry out jubilations!
Old Father Time and Mother Earth smiles,
as the world spins in sweet salvation.

We are together you and I,
destined to be conjoined.
We cannot part,
though I have tried –
two sides of the same coin.
You have your demons,
I have mine,
our paths not meant to cross,
parted from our distant poles,
without you I am lost.
Your heart refrains my harmony,
our breath is intertwined,
your dreams haunt mine,
I shadow yours,
you dwell within my mind.
Our souls can’t be dissevered,
but neither can they join;
we are from different planets,
defying space and time.
