But a second
Absence of a tryst to love Does not abandon thee From amorous encounters In a world of make-believe Absence of a single thought Wants not a lesser being Yet, in time one cannot become What one cannot see For sight to some means knowledge Powered by the mind If one be blind, does it decry […]
The Hand
I stood beside the hand I held And saw it tell a story It spoke of years when time was young And the years in sun and glory It stroked my hair, and with a twist Touched my elbow then my shoulder Romance became companionship As the two of us grew older Sometimes I thought […]
The birds that chirp before flying
The sun and the moon And the stars and the sky The laughter that bursts In the birds that chirp before flying The water that brings A saviour to life After looking down At the flowers now blooming The essence, the ingress Seeps through the room’s open window The day sees the sun Shining brightly […]
