online today!EVENINGS PLEDGE....
As pink blush, shoots the sky
Creeping through, low to high
Turning the day, towards night
Coating brightness, dimming light
On distant horizon, change occurs
Aware of twilight, the eyes lured
From life below, to changing sky
Mesmerizing colour, a day dies
Sensing vacuum, spiritual peace
Expecting rapid, light decrease
Before street lights, smolder-glow
Dark corners hide, no secrets show
Life in hiding, now dark comes
Daytime is again, on the run
As pinky blush, to crimson red...
deepens, with evening pledge
Soon the moon and stars will fill
The sky with light, that spills
Over a sleeping hidden earth
Recycled strength, towards rebirth
Creeping through, low to high
Turning the day, towards night
Coating brightness, dimming light
On distant horizon, change occurs
Aware of twilight, the eyes lured
From life below, to changing sky
Mesmerizing colour, a day dies
Sensing vacuum, spiritual peace
Expecting rapid, light decrease
Before street lights, smolder-glow
Dark corners hide, no secrets show
Life in hiding, now dark comes
Daytime is again, on the run
As pinky blush, to crimson red...
deepens, with evening pledge
Soon the moon and stars will fill
The sky with light, that spills
Over a sleeping hidden earth
Recycled strength, towards rebirth

About this poem:
I sat watching the sky change from blue to pink until it reached a motled crimson.......
Springtime
As morning sun crept up in the sky
The world and everything in it sighed
The beauty of the glowing warm golden rays
Promised the beginning of different days
The anticipation of a change was in the air
Giving hope that spring at last was here
The grass was turning a different green
Birds sang new songs on the wing
Winter’s scarred landscape beginning to change
Smoothed away gently with a warm spring rain
Sprouts of green were popping up everywhere
Bringing promise of color and thankful tears
All the colors of the rainbow were seen
Across the landscape a most colorful scene
Reflecting the promise God made a long time ago
Of the covenant He would and did on us bestow
The world and everything in it sighed
The beauty of the glowing warm golden rays
Promised the beginning of different days
The anticipation of a change was in the air
Giving hope that spring at last was here
The grass was turning a different green
Birds sang new songs on the wing
Winter’s scarred landscape beginning to change
Smoothed away gently with a warm spring rain
Sprouts of green were popping up everywhere
Bringing promise of color and thankful tears
All the colors of the rainbow were seen
Across the landscape a most colorful scene
Reflecting the promise God made a long time ago
Of the covenant He would and did on us bestow

About this poem:
Anticipation of Springonline today!NATURE'S COST.
In cotton-wool, morning muffled
Living plants-trees, left tussled
After days of wind, erratic rain
Sunshine hope, for weather tame
Towns felt power, fast water
Healing time, nothing falter
Rain ceased, allows sun to dry
Dry-out, water crept high
Mottled sky, stormy grey-shiny blue
White fluffy cloud, pass on cue
Ground soggy, mud will squelch
Warning... nature needs help.
Time-sun heals, storm passed
Wind died, breeze to dance
Bring hope, for short time lost
Many suffered, nature's cost
It'll return, know not when
Blamed,the actions of men
Life goes on, humans learn
Earth needs help, or watch it burn
Living plants-trees, left tussled
After days of wind, erratic rain
Sunshine hope, for weather tame
Towns felt power, fast water
Healing time, nothing falter
Rain ceased, allows sun to dry
Dry-out, water crept high
Mottled sky, stormy grey-shiny blue
White fluffy cloud, pass on cue
Ground soggy, mud will squelch
Warning... nature needs help.
Time-sun heals, storm passed
Wind died, breeze to dance
Bring hope, for short time lost
Many suffered, nature's cost
It'll return, know not when
Blamed,the actions of men
Life goes on, humans learn
Earth needs help, or watch it burn

About this poem:
We have heard our recently NZ has experienced a succession of natural disasters......causing havoc for many....but it's not just NZ, as the world pays with rapid climate changes......online today!The Question.....WHY
Thrashing rain, beats a roof
deafening sound, giving proof
Of weather's, controlling ways
nature's strength, doesn't play
Sends a warning, to beware
rushing water, has no care
Engulfs -collects as it runs
sinister outcome, no friendly fun
Puddles may attract, in youth
swirling floods, come with proof
Of rapid changes, nature brings
until a rainbow, when birds sing
Moisture hangs, in heavy air
Soggy ground, flushed bare
Of colour except, dull mud
acting magnetic, as feet trudge
Through the squelching, wet soil
making work, with heavy toil
Until the sun can warm and dry
some ask the question, of course its 'WHY.'

About this poem:
as we experience the tail end of the bad weather that rattled Australia earlier, leaving serious damage, we may accept and cope...but sometimes wonder....WHY
DAFFODILS
I wandered lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils;
Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.
Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the milky way,
They stretched in never-ending line
Along the margin of a bay:
Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.
The waves beside them danced; but they
Out-did the sparkling waves in glee:
A poet could not but be gay,
In such a jocund company:
I gazed—and gazed—but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought:
For oft, when on my couch I lie
In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.
That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils;
Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.
Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the milky way,
They stretched in never-ending line
Along the margin of a bay:
Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.
The waves beside them danced; but they
Out-did the sparkling waves in glee:
A poet could not but be gay,
In such a jocund company:
I gazed—and gazed—but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought:
For oft, when on my couch I lie
In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.

About this poem:
This is one of the most famous of Lyric Poetry ever written...online today!SURREAL NATURE....
Memory of snow, coats the ground
Silence heighten, without sound
Walking feet, explosive crunch
Crystal mirrors, ice-cream-lunch
Crisp icy air, breath turns to steam
Once trodden snow, turning cream
Nature's lies hidden, a scene surreal
Of familiar landscape, till sun peels
Scene as expected, on mountain break, or
short time presentation, as Christmas Cake
Until exposed reality, returns daily norm
Defined by shapes-textures, normality reborn
Silence heighten, without sound
Walking feet, explosive crunch
Crystal mirrors, ice-cream-lunch
Crisp icy air, breath turns to steam
Once trodden snow, turning cream
Nature's lies hidden, a scene surreal
Of familiar landscape, till sun peels
Scene as expected, on mountain break, or
short time presentation, as Christmas Cake
Until exposed reality, returns daily norm
Defined by shapes-textures, normality reborn

About this poem:
For some....a christmas card scene of snow, will never be reality.....online today!SHUT DOWN....
Mottled grey, tinged with black
Heralds a night, when light lacked
Crystal gleam, that comes with day
Fading slowly, as sun gives way
To shut-down, that twilight brings
Muffled bird sounds, no longer wing
Across a sky, where peace now reigns
As active life, now slowly drains
Sleep snubs the sound of life
Though in shrubs, a time for mice
Venture unseen, by the human eye
Till a stalking cat, now hidden lies
In wait to pounce, catch its prey
So much easier, as ends the day
Rest will revive, until the dawn
Repeats the process, day reborn
Heralds a night, when light lacked
Crystal gleam, that comes with day
Fading slowly, as sun gives way
To shut-down, that twilight brings
Muffled bird sounds, no longer wing
Across a sky, where peace now reigns
As active life, now slowly drains
Sleep snubs the sound of life
Though in shrubs, a time for mice
Venture unseen, by the human eye
Till a stalking cat, now hidden lies
In wait to pounce, catch its prey
So much easier, as ends the day
Rest will revive, until the dawn
Repeats the process, day reborn

About this poem:
twilight...such a special time of day.....
no title
rivers through the sky the ocean weeps
silence for the moon,stars in a cradle keeps
and the waves go one by one
marched a thousand miles to break upon are soul
silence for the moon,stars in a cradle keeps
and the waves go one by one
marched a thousand miles to break upon are soul

Post Commentonline today!AT ONE WITH NATURE....
Half moon shape, edged gold
Aqua blue, a sky so bold
Returning tide, a picture makes
On ocean bay, fresh waves break
Peace engulfs, where seagulls fly
Blue the sea, reflects the sky
Summers morning, wait's there
Gift of nature, to compare
Wait footsteps, to break sand
Of coastal beauty, beach land
Stretching far, as eyes can see
One with nature, lifelong key
Wake slowly, to be adored
Solitude waits, following shore
Echo calls, from swooping birds
Nature's buzz, only heard....
Aqua blue, a sky so bold
Returning tide, a picture makes
On ocean bay, fresh waves break
Peace engulfs, where seagulls fly

Summers morning, wait's there
Gift of nature, to compare

Of coastal beauty, beach land
Stretching far, as eyes can see
One with nature, lifelong key
Wake slowly, to be adored
Solitude waits, following shore
Echo calls, from swooping birds
Nature's buzz, only heard....

About this poem:
an unspoilt bay in early morning.......rejuvenating and freshno title
Sycamore leafs
on sticks of Winters bones
shoals of seasons reefs
lighthouse and the stones
Spring is the song of butterfly's departing
while cloud dragons roost on the coals of the sun
on sticks of Winters bones
shoals of seasons reefs
lighthouse and the stones
Spring is the song of butterfly's departing
while cloud dragons roost on the coals of the sun
