the Spartan child
Protect the Spartan child on the mount Bring him down the mount and back to health Defend the warrior, enveloped in battle Covertly, surreptitiously, by stealth Be Provedore to the unprotected Without they do not go nor suffer yet Support the weak, coerced, from shame, deflected Allow those outside, known, within to come … Continue reading the Spartan child
sweet sunshine
A moonlit shadow appeared that dark night, Bright as ever was the sunburnt day. Hail sweet sunshine, with a smile. Dark, grey cloud, suspend, delay. Serendipitous was the chance encounter, Surreptitiously he left. Hark at the raindrops, softly, sweetly. Awaken, she did, surprised, bereft. Raindrops developed into thunder, Lightning followed a partner's twist. Sweet sunshine, … Continue reading sweet sunshine

Lest we forget
I took my choc lab down the beach this morning. She loves to play with the other dogs and chase the ball while I talk to the ‘locals,’ a little community all their own.

She strove to be the best that she could be, Her foresight led as far as she could see. She never felt out of depth, too far out to sea, She never lost her sense of being with me. Release me to the world as the one I truly am, Deep in thought, in feeling, … Continue reading Unknown
