Graveyard [1]

 

 

 

 

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…

A Thing of Beauty

You are as strange as a rainbow,
so rarely seen.
You seem real enough,
your bright colours gleam.
I cannot hold you,
touch you,
reach you,
I cannot find your source;
the calm after my storm,
nature with a force.
You are not solid
nor a fanciful flight,
with no use or purpose,
just a beautiful sight.
