Follow the voice
Follow the voice of the darkness until
it leads you to the brilliance
let heart felt inspiration guide the footsteps
all is joy
joy holds all sorrow
in its arms
speaks stillness
saying I love you
sadness falls away
kindles a music of…

Beauty holds me
Beauty holds me in its hand
and hugs me more
than I thought possible
I am not alone
The spirit graces me and touches me every day
with gratitude
underneath the yearning is a peace with no name
that surpasses the senses
the source of…

Angels
I know there are Angels
You can feel them in your heart
They are the answer to your problems
when you feel torn apart
Listen very closely, hear them stirring deep inside
they turn the sadness into love
give it nowhere to hide.

A Miracle
Right where you are
there is a miracle
awaiting you
within your own heart
and consciousness

The moments that are no more still live
Eternally
the moments that are no more
still live

life can be glorious
and we have lived the glory
in the experiences
we have shared already
walking the Downs
where blackberries ,
cows…

Ghost of Wordsworth
I thought I saw
the ghost of Wordsworth
last night
Dancing across the Lakes
I heard his voice
in the wind
sweeping over me
A cold chill
went up my spine
bringing me
to my knees
and my reality
for he is not just a poet
but a translator
of…

Illuminated
industrious
imperceptible
snatches
of reality
flash by the screen
of my consciousness
and glimpses are revealed
of a truth so vast
it is impossible to grasp
in one gigantic gulp
or overview
This life is a dimly lit
barely open crack

Grassmere
Written at the cottage of Wordsworth Trudi and Sting
In the presence of Keith Altham and Adelaide in 2008
Also at the Waverly

into the rhythm of the stones
be lulled into inactivity
that crushes bones.
But one…

Tumble
I tumbled out of the sky
and still
i was inside of you
i exploded
in the galaxies
and you were there
always larger
than my problem
you wrote the melody
within my being
you grafted yourself
to every vein
you transformed
every joint and…

Sometimes a butterfly
Sometimes a butterfly will fall
Sadness descends and rises
in us
whenever we let our guard down
it comes creeping in
Original thinking is a myth
a deception
at best we can rearrange what is
and we call it creativity
it is just a reshuffling
