Dawn should........
Dawn should awaken my sleepy soul
as night doesn`t always relax everything
dreams flash before my eyes so vividly
I feel so damaged, like a broken wing
Dawn should be a happy time of the day
for some this is true, for others not so
for me, a reminder of the hardships
that I struggle through, making me feel low
Dawn should energize my whole being
after the darkness of the night before
strengthen me for the whole day ahead
to enable me cope, this I implore
Dawn doesn`t always do that for me
I can feel drained, restless, downcast
my soul is damaged, I need to feel free
fly with the angels, be happy at last.

Rhythmic lapping
of incoming tide
under evening sun
as light tries to hide
shadows growing
over frothy waves
slowly rolling in
to deserted caves
flickering lights
yellow and gold
rolls with the ocean
gently turning cold
the end of the day
creates emotion
tender memories
locked in this ocean

Words and Blossoms
Sweet spring blossom
along with sweet scents
brings forth flowers
showing their presents
words flow from the soul
vivid descriptions
covering pages
written transcriptions
creating stories
colourful and bright
wonderful fiction
that`s so full of light
flowing sweet pale limbs
strewn across the words
bringing it to life
through descriptive verbs
sweet words and blossoms
telling their story
nature`s emotions
flowers in glory
so enjoy all of this
with it`s bright fashion
touching heart felt words
beautiful passion

The Quiet Pool

pale blue silk rippling gently
a mirror reflecting the clouds
hiding the depths down below
all drifting behind these shrouds
lapping against the land`s edge
an almost silent splash is heard
increasing circles across the water
this moving fluid that's stirred
as the sun brushes the surface
leaving patterns for me to see
with the shadows moving slowly
creating such tranquility

St John on the Wall
This place of sanctuary
build inside our city`s skin
tall and narrow solitude
a haven of peace within
filled with love and light
where God is to be found
from crypt to stone arches
with organ`s radiating sound
carved characters look down
upon the congregation
as they give their thanks
for all of God`s creation
with the cross to symbolize
the wonder of the Lord
for in this holy building
God is worshiped and adored
