Day Dreaming

Lying in the edge of the rivers bank

Leaning up against it

Like in a large fish tank

She swirled her finger around

Nothing underneath

Not a single sound

As swirls of circles

Formed around her

She didn’t know where to go

Will I just stand here

And watch them go

Will I swim on a little more

Tiny dancing crystals

Of light hit it down

Pulling it away

Taking it from round

Exposing her heart pound

She gasped for air

As she popped up from under the water

Brushing back her hair with her hands

Moving against the current so hard

She let it hold her in place

She swam as if she was in a race

Pushing herself to go more

While going so much

She stopped to explore

As she stood on a huge rock

To dive back in

Eyes appeared from deep within

She was scared at first

What is it

She thought out loud

Suddenly it became clear

It was only a little green frog

He jumped up on the rock

That she had dived from

She was shocked

She was shaken overcome

Ah looking closely at him

She said aren’t you a cute little guy

He said do you think

Was his reply

What did you just talk

This can not be

Yes I did

Oh yes it was me

How listen I can talk

But you don’t listen

You do be too busy chatting

To understand

What I have to say

So I have found my frog

Will you turn into a prince

If I kiss you

No don’t be silly

First comes the talking

Magic may happen some day

Sure give it a go and we will see

As she puckered up

To kiss the frog

Opening her eyes

She finally realised

He was never there

She had just got carried away

On that warm sunny day

Fallen Star

The moon struck the lake

On which he was taking a day off

He was gone all day

He just needed to get away

He had been fishing but

Caught nothing but a chill

He did not mind

This was his escape

His happy pill

He sat and watched all the stars

When all of a sudden

A star fell across the sky

He quickly wished on it

Closing his eyes tight

He had wished for something to happen

He surely did not know

What was about to uncover his thoughts

Would make his emotions show

A sudden splash

He seen right in front of him

He did not know what to do

He thought it was a fish that had tugged his line

Nothing else happened for awhile

Then out of know where he seen a light

It filled the lake

Like a whirlpool of fire

He was frightened

And helpless

Not knowing

What to do

When suddenly he was dragged

Down below

His was twirling and twisting

Like a vortex of show

Then he was gone

No where in sight

He was aware of all he seen

Nature that lay down in between

She came up to meet him

This wonderful light

Come with me

As she guided him along the way

What was happening to him that day

He held her hand

As she took him along the sea bed sand

We are nearly there

She somehow told him

It was like she was inside his mind

Not been able to talk

He was entwined

He suddenly seen all that she wanted him to see

Another world

He could never see

She took him to an island

Where he would never age

He would not have to live

Like a trapped human in a fast working cage

He asked her to tell him

Who she was

I am the one

Sent from the stars above

Why did you bring me here

To see that there is more

Than what you imagined

That was always there

This is where you belong

Singing me that wonderful beautiful song

He sang to her and she sang along

He loved that he felt like he belonged

As he lay down beside her

On the broken sand

What an unusual land

He closed his eyes

He was drifting off to sleep

When he woke

He felt all weak

He had a journey

Like never before

He was almost knocking on heavens door

He was back on the boat

Shook by what he had seen

But glad it was only a dream  

Written on the Wall

As they looked

At the writing on the wall

What could it teach them

Could it teach them anything at all

Inscriptions of the past

How long would they last

As they have stood for thousands of years

Travellers from all over

Come to see their wares

Standing in a small lit room

Their diaries of the life back then

Told them all

Like life size words

In picture quality

Portrays of illustrated workings

Of the peoples way of then

What were these people living through

Was it a simpler lifestyle for men and women

With tunnels and rooms

Of clues all around

Some undiscovered

For the roof could fall in

Built up high for the eyes to see

Stepping stairs to the top

Hidden treasures

Only for their hearts once be

So as we go and see

All that is there

Remember to honour who these people were

Respect their journey and writings on the wall

Gravity of them

Lifting something so large

Took thousand of men

Working hard for all their worth

Not stopping until

They completed this work

It must have hurt

Waterfalls in the Sky

Rolling of the thunder filled skies

She threw her eyes up

Bolts of lightening flashed back

Reflecting the clouds that formed

As she walked on her way home

She felt something grasp her

Like a hand of might

This gave her a terrible fright

It took her off her feet

At first she thought

She was going to be

Taken by some strange heat

When out of no where

She was pulled up in to the dark filled air

As if she was flying

How can this be

Help me she shouted this is not fair

She thought her time had come

She thought she was going up

When suddenly she stopped

She was whisked in to the candy floss

Standing alone

No one in sight

All that she seen

Was an open water fall

This must be were we get our rain from

As she walked closer

She seen it pour down

As if through a sieve

The clouds had tiny holes

In them that made this happen

She could not believe

What she seen

I must be dreaming

Pinching herself to see

Could this be really happening

To little old me

She was feeling a real thirst

She wanted to taste it

To help her curse

As she thought this is what she had

As she went to taste it

She looked in and saw

The earth below

Wonderful scenery

It made a rainbow glow

It was like she was in another land

The water felt so good

As she looked over where the water flowed

It danced over rocks so bare

This must be the sound of thunder

I heard today

She thought to herself

And the rainbow colours must flash

To make the lightening that almost

Threw me to the ground

She lay down to sleep

And rest that day

When she woke up

She was back down below

A journey she had taken that day

What will happen tomorrow

It is always another day  

Illuminating Candles

Coloured trees standing around this field

Standing like illuminating candles

Of yesterday of many years

Pulled back behind

Some are hard to see

Hanging down

The red tiny buds

Catch your eyes

Like tiny miniature spies

As they fall to the ground below

Like droplets of snow

Dusting the green

Covering it in a beautiful scene

Some blow with the wind

As they patch the empty gaps

Like natures pattern traps

Closing in perhaps

As he walks to discover

What lies in the back

He is surprised by

What looks like a rather large crack

As he gets closer

He can see the bark

Has opened up

Its seeping sack

As life fills it down below

Like marching soldiers

Gathering tow in tow

Lined up in each row

Crisp is the air

That traps his vision

Taking images

Trying to take it all in

He now knows where to begin

Valley Between

Sheltered in a cave

They ran in from the rain

As butterflies flew down to do the same

As clouds filled dark skies grey

Tall grass stood tall below

Daisies barely popping their heads up

To say hello

Scorched nettles were of rustic red

Nestled together

Like a sea of red

Sun flowers far off in the distance

Waving as the wind passed by

Seeded black centre

Like a massive pupil of your eye

Her flowered dress captured all

That was happening around

She was blending in

To the background

Birds chased each other

To look for shelter too

Stopping along the way

To make sure

Everyone was accountable too

They found lady birds clinging

Close together

Nestled up away from

The cold damp weather

As they sat and waited for it to pass

The whispers of the wind

As it blew a song

Through the blades of dark green grass

When after some rest

As the clouds pulled back their curtains

They decided it was time to go

Before another shower

Would stop them

Off they went down the track

Remembering that day well

Printed in their diaries

When sitting on the porch with the family

They had a great story to tell them indeed

Spreading his Lust

He stood back

Letting all the ladies in

Sitting in a fountain

He was full of sin

Not really what you would call

A gentle man

He was more of a player

A man full of lust

Not one you could ever trust

You would go with him

Only for his rap pore and dangerous looks

If one man had power

Then he had the power of three

He knew how to get the attention

Of every lady

He had a smile

That would melt

The strongest of hearts

He was a true Casanova

He was no push over

With his dark big brown melting eyes

His tanned skin

Faintly covered with a close cut shave

He was tall and looked so well

As he passed each girl

Took on his wonderful smell

If he was one of the deadly sins

He was certainly lust

But remember ladies

Not a man you can trust

As he pasted each mirror

Catching a reflection of himself

He stopped hearts along the way

Like some paradise sky

Painting a picture of him

Words can not say

He just took your breath away

Leaving you helpless in his pathway

Just for one moment

He had it all

He wished he had her

He wished she would call

But she knew what he was like

She did not want to climb

She did not want to take on this hike

So his tension spread out in the room

As she walked away

His empty eyes

Wanted her more than

Clouds wanted to fill the skies

As his heart hung

In his lonely chest

He wasn’t happy

He wasn’t impressed

As ladies gathered around

He knew this time

He had gone too far

She turned and smiled

Waved good bye

Drove off in her car
