the Spartan child

November 29, 2015January 15, 2016 ~ sensualism ~ Leave a comment

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

November 29, 2015December 12, 2015 ~ sensualism ~ Leave a comment

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

Neville Chamberlain or Charlie Wilson?

November 26, 2015November 27, 2015 ~ sensualism ~ 1 Comment

Recently my very own Prime Minister declared the need for “restraint” in the wake of the terror attacks in Paris and Mali. According to some sources, there have been 291 terror attacks in the course of the 2015 calendar year thus far, (to the 26th November). Restraint may be seen by some to be a … Continue reading Neville Chamberlain or Charlie Wilson?

oxymoronically-speaking

November 23, 2015December 22, 2015 ~ sensualism ~ Leave a comment

Never before, once again Away, at home, forever Sincerely dishonest, as was before Always, maybe, never   An honest liar, stubborn tolerance To liberally legislate Hedonistic stoicism Accepting of difference and irate   Absence makes the heart grow fonder Out of sight means you’re out of mind Forgetful of those not in our sight What … Continue reading oxymoronically-speaking

at the crossroads

November 23, 2015January 15, 2016 ~ sensualism ~ Leave a comment

Australian newspapers this weekend had but one issue in their ‘Commentary’ section(s) – Paris. For once I read everyone’s opinions. By the time I post this, at least nineteen people have died in Mali. For once, media coverage was all over the hostage crisis, and our hearts go out to the families of those that died, … Continue reading at the crossroads

Lest we forget

November 16, 2015November 16, 2015 ~ sensualism ~ Leave a comment

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. Our sense of safety and security never occurred to us. We all waded our feet in the water and walked on … Continue reading Lest we forget

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
