I MISS YOU SO MUCH

I MISS YOU SO MUCH

(Though haven't met you yet)

Days seem so long,

And sunsets roll on by,

Waiting for you Love,

To steal my heart.

Here we are walking,

Strolling along the river,

Hearing only heartbeats,

In the ripple of its' waters.

How long have I felt,

Lonely without you so close ?

Walking alone in silence,

As the masses throng by.

Delivering hope we share,

The hours, days, even weeks,

Of friendship, and of love,

Calling upon the spirit.

In every way we recount,

Just what love is about.

Many strive yet fail,

To accomplish and believe,

What we can know ourselves,

Each moment as we live.

Fear is our enemy,

For sure it kills hope,

That we will know,

Each and every last sensation.

Willing as a lamb,

We offer ourselves open,

To the chance to know,

How dreams could become.

Long lasting and infinite,

In the adventures we know,

And the knowledge of life,

Which could be replete.

Very strong laughter I hear,

You are in my eyes,

And I am in your heart

Love me tenderly now.

As if we had been,

Forever kith and kin,

A flavour lets us know,

The taste is of freedom.

We have known and lived,

Joy beyond the stars,

Ever realising our futures,

Bequeathed from angels' wings.

Come unto me now, lover,

One who knows my heart,

Share with me a flower,

In its' heart we live anew.

And forgive the wayward tendencies,

To fear at all,

Go on, go forth, believe,

I miss you everyday.

Even though the strict reality is,

That never have we ever,

Even met,

In the realm of the Absolute !!

Our eyes will shine as the sun, when we first realise each other. x

STAMFORD IN THE RAIN.

All the busying ants,
Scuttle into doorways.
The pavements,
Heaving but a few moments ago,
Now fast becoming sluices,
For the opening heavens.

Here and there,
The daring and the prepared,
Venture out to sodden feet,
And the market traders,
Struggle to cover their wares,
From the rain laden skies.

Everywhere, pools shimmering,
Thunder crashing, rain lashing.
And the world pauses,
But for a brief moment,
Until the torrents rise,
Once more in earnest.

Something odd happens,
To our worlds, I see,
When we are plunged,
Deep into the, cacophony !

Fear lives whilst hope dies,
For our ruptured reality.
And in this moment,
We forget, it's only rain !!

To Seville and beyond

Oh yes believe me,
I am so keen to begin.
The days seem too long,
Leading to my departure,
Yet I wait with patience,
Knowing my time is coming.

The dusty, romantic city,
That waits for me,
Will soon be in my eyes,
And I, in her heart.

With classical guitars,
Strumming a rousing tune,
And girls with raven hair,
Dancing 'til the dawn,
How can I ever be,
Sorry to leave myself there.

Still more passionate reasons,
May lie up ahead,
And I will be open,
To know when they call,
As will my adventure,
Into the greater unknowns.

The sun has a way,
Of capturing our attentions,
From the soul of the city,
With its' welcome,
Softening my resolves,
To rush through her gates,
In search of escape,
Where her mystery is lost.

POSITIVELY BOUYANT

Somehow, today, I am floating upon the clouds,
I wonder just how the mood has become lifted high.
Enjoying the ambience of my little, safe retreat.
Sipping, richly roasted coffee, and waiting for you here.

Like a tiny craft, bobbing in the swells,
I imagine our life, its ups and downs.
Lifting us up in love, and letting us fall,
In love too, with all of its rewarding ways.

Ship shape and Bristol fashion, everything is complimentary,
You and me Love, dedicated to being together.
Searching for friendship and the caring we share,
All we need now, is to finally meet !

3RD TIME LUCKY

Sitting here drinking and sharing a moment,
I conclude my privilege, to bathe in your eyes.
Furtive, yet openly seeking, answers to your inquiries.
Watching me, studying you, and being wonderfully relaxed.

This will be the third occasion we have met,
But the first one, we have actively chosen.
Is there meant to be, reason or rhyme to conclude ?
My own intuition says follow where the river flows.

Providence or destiny, who really knows why ?
Let us not care so, to explain what is now.
Just live in this joy, where everything is possible,
And where no future can delay our rewards.

TWO BITES AT THE CHERRY

Here we are again, smiling,
Laughing and joking.
Strange mechanics are afoot,
Moving the wheels of love.
Seeing you here, no surprise,
I knew we would meet,
If not today, then soon,
Revealed, the plan from above.

Are you yet aware,
What joy that you give,
To each person you touch,
And also to me too ?
An ever present, spontaneous light,
Illuminating our world,
An affirmation of holiness,
Another angel, in my view.

So do not let fear,
Immobilize your great spirit,
Listen closely to your heart,
And intuition lead your way.
Be patient with your hopes,
And expansive with your dreams.
Live this present moment,
Carpe Diem--- Seize the day !!!

OWNING YOUR FEELINGS.

It is very brave that you have declared,
An openness to your truth, because it is time.
No-one would purposefully lay bare their secrets,
If they'd be chastised, criticized or left desolate.

But I admire the strength, which this action displays,
And I love you all the more for doing it.
I'm aware it is not easy, to be so frankly open,
So I am glad, hearing what you shared with me.

Even though I don't share, all the ways that you feel,
Doesn't mean I forget, just what virtues you have.
In fact I am sure, you have brightened my world,
By being just who you are, and letting me be,
Just me.....

WHY SHOULD I WANT ANYTHING ? ( from you)

I imagine, just for the cruel sport of it,

What you would feel, if I were to reject you.

How low could I get, upon hearing nothing at all,

Not knowing even, if you were still alive.

But I don't have to imagine too much, do I ?

The overwhelming truth is, that you cannot allow,

Me, to have answers to, the burning doubts I hold,

Nor the love I still hold, in my heart for you.

So, my first real love, that died with the fall,

That was crushed flat in the winter of my heart,

And was reborn sweetly, in an enduring dream,

Let me rest in peace, knowing that you, had it all !!

COINCIDENCE, YOU BET !!

So you were asking and here I am.
Did you realise at all, the workings of life ?
Delivering up solutions, if we could only see,
Just how timely arrived, are those answers now.

Before you had asked, I was on my way,
And likewise were you, waiting for the hour.
By chance, the universe does not work at all,
It disguises its help, adorned as synchronistic light.

In your heart, beating, do you not feel alive ?
Refreshed for the push, towards a new adventure ?
Honour your intuitive smile, and what it has beheld,
As will I dear friend, your hug so empowering.

Could it have been merely an odd timing ?
Or doesn't it appear more, like an angels touch ?
I for one have seen, the look of hope,
In eyes so clearly open, for change to come.

For being awake now, is the way to move on,
No councelling will mend, what you believe madness.
Within you ar.e truths, yet to be beheld,
And the key to open, is in front of your eyes.

Allow the love of kindness, to show you the way,
Do not fear to tread on lands of exploration.
Be open, be truly bright, and believe in yourself,
For in doing this now, unimaginable blessings will flow.

GIVING IN TO TEMPTATION !

GIVING IN TO TEMPTATION !

The accusations arrive,

As my mind wanders.

Should I, shouldn't I ?

Relentless questions about my choices.

My heart says Yes, go on,

My head holds me back.

Always fighting my guilt,

Not knowing actually, why ?

Was I induced from birth,

To carry this dilemma ?

These patterns of indecision,

That could lead to sin.

What is this odd device,

That ridicules our nature,

And replaces it wholly,

With fear of our being ?

And when I finally fall,

Into one way of endeavour,

I doubt constantly the sanity,

Of a choice made in earnest.

God damn these voices,

The evil jury's accusatory eyes,

And my doubting desperation,

I will feel her wrath.

But as sweet as honey,

Is the taste of you,

Satisfying upon my tongue,

And my pulse races now.

Throwing caution to the wind,

And my conscience to the pyre,

Dreading, yet invigorated,

That I can love at all.

Wouldst that I overcome,

Latent fear of my failures.

Hounded by my dreams,

Yet to be fulfilled.

And here I can rest,

No sin do I feel,

For laying down with you,

And giving my heart.

GOING AWAY (To Heaven on Earth)

Well, how do you feel now that your dreams,
Are to be realised, walking once more, "The way" ?
I can hardly believe, the luck to be blessed
With another great opportunity to see the way of Santiago.
Knowing the giving spirit by which I will bathe,
I can walk without fear, of ever being truly alone.

I remember so clearly, the polite and positive nature,
Of my fellow pilgrims, as we walked in unity.
Once we had found our rhythm, we walked in a flow,
Not to be discovered, in many other walks of life.
After having been shown, how purely amazing the truth,
Random acts of kindness, being shown to you and I.

My heart is born again, to be in this wondrous love,
Sharing my own pursuance, to be in the moment.
Bold and full of life, I can really empower,
All who's paths' cross mine, that we all reach Santiago.
And upon reaching home, where the angels are singing,
We'll come to know again, how love works its' magic.

With friends new, some older, Santiago will open its' gates,
To all who should enter, following the way of St. James.
And to receive, will be, our new earth family,
A brotherhood of pilgrims, passive, tolerant and so kind.
Will you try to believe, these words that I repeat?
And follow in love, the way of the Peaceful Warrior.

ON DIFFERENT PLANETS !!

I'm not entirely sure,
That we see as one,
The world we share,
In quite the same way.
But that need not matter,
If we can humbly say,
Our worlds can colide,
Without real interference.

Nature shares with us,
And myriads of other creatures,
This tiny planet in space,
Without depriving us at all.
More food than,
We can possibly ever eat,
And more beauty to behold,
Than is reasonable to expect.

Such a joy in truth,
To find the diversity,
You and I are testament to,
Coming from different worlds.
A glorious range of beliefs,
And hopes we can display,
As we are smiled upon,
By the same sun above.

BUT !! and here is the point.
What do we gain really.
From spending time together,
Unless we have joy ?
A way of sharing happily,
The excitement of knowing,
Each one has a life,
Separate and yet shareable.

I am sure of one thing,
And it is this, I say,
A realtionship is supposed,
To be a two way street.
For what I have sensed,
Is that from this compromise,
Happiness will flow freely,
And I will feel blessed.

In your attentions I,
Wish to be enveloped,
And yet you cannot,
Respond with an observation,
That you allow me to,
Do all of the giving,
Whilst you alone bathe,
In the bounty of it.

Do my eyes decieve me ?

I still see in my minds eye, your smile.
Wondrous and infectious, as it brightens my world.
I try to imagine how, I would cope without sight.
IT, being considered by me, the most valuable gift.

Your sandaled feet tread, so lightly upon my heart,
Exquisitely nimble and pretty, they follow where I go.
Wearing khaki shorts, your legs appear so long, so shapely,
And I thank god that, they drive me so crazy.

A womanly hip, shaped into a pert firm rear,
Allows my hands comfort, as I hold you so near.
Your narrowing waist, determines that all above,
Be proud to be a woman, a curvature of pleasure.

But your shoulders, elegant, graceful and square,
Define such attractiveness to me, far beyond mere flair.
As your neck leads me, attentively to gaze upon,
A face carved from love, prettiness and sophistication.

And of course your eyes, pure crystal, shining bright,
Make me want to kiss your seductive lips, throughout the night.
That I could taste again, your passion, anew,
The type of love displayed not by many, only with you.

So my gorgeous lover I, will guard throughout the night,
For I could spend forever, breathing in your wondrous sight.
And as my eyes close, I wonder, perchance to know,
Are you filled with love, does OUR love still grow ?
