Another Day

Another day, another month
They come and go so swiftly
I blink and then turn the page
And the seconds race right by

Another tear falls over my skin
To join the river cried before
Moving on seems so easy
Just one step then one more

Today is just another day
It begins and ends in night
The sun rises then falls away
The moon will come again

Strength comes from lifes adventures
It lifts us from the grief of this world

Imprint

Upon my heart there is a scar
It's the imprint of your love
Indelible by time or space
This wonderful touch of you
Eternal bliss your legacy
Given to me so sweetly

Upon my memory there lies
The imprint of your face
Smiling as we danced
Eyes sparkling with joy
You whirled me round
Our feet in perfect time

Upon my soul there is
The tiniest piece of you
It's the imprint of your love
Forever remembered here
All I have to do is close my eyes
And I feel it once again

Guardian Angel - for ANN

The guardian angels comfort you
Bring you peace and relief
From all the pain that visits
They lullaby you off to sleep
With their potions and spells
Easing your soul to the gateways
Your spirit lies with these angels
Throughout your final flight
Take strength from their serenity
As they choose to walk your path
Holding your hand as you weaken
Carrying you when energy leaves
Float you with the water lilies
When your mind needs to wander
Their courage is amazing as they move
Through your pain and anger
To see beyond the fear inside
And still remain to help you leave

Ripple of Silver

Smile spread across features
As love traces a pathway
Finding itself inside my heart
Facades shatter as reality
Defrosts hopes left behind
Replacing with the heat
Of future grasped tightly
Eyes wide open in surprise
At the strength of this emotion
Uninvited but still welcomed
With abandoned pleasure
Whats gone cant be retrieved
But my eyes look to the horizon
Seeing that ripple of silver flowing
Forward to seek my soul out

Arrogance

Sometimes it pours like hot
drips of melted wax from a candlestick;
your migraine.

I wanted armistice.
Untangle the lies,
I am not in your firing line.

The tulips in the barrel of your gun
cannot forgive the bullets.
There will be no ceremony after the funeral.

Give a slice of blue departure
of moon to light the beach,
there was a brutal murder on the lake

among the muffled waves of protest
in the home of insanes, who were
praying for the sun to return.

World Undiscovered-For Jay

To reach out and touch skin
To caress and feel the rythmn
As it moves with each breath
The smoothness of its surface
Glistening with a gloss of tan
Honey colouring fading to white
As the season draws to its close
Tracing delicate patterns across
A face relaxed in sweetest sleep
Eyelid genty flutters as dreams
Slip over your visage and away
I watch the parade of thoughts
A transition from sleep to waking
Crystal clarity of mind is mine
Lying wide awake remembering
The scenes that float before you
Of ships that sailed and vanished
Carrying our love on its voyage
Through a world undiscovered

Mirror...For Mother's Day

True love

Will remain always

In the heart of a mother

Unasked for

It lives on inside the spirit

That remembers the mirror

Of love
