A commitment
a simple word
that hushes
through the air
between us
means everything and nothing
at the same time
The words we speak
are invisible
they just float
and disappear
into the night
unless they find
an open soul
that catches them
warms them
and keeps them alive
Who knew
words have hearts too

Talking out loud.
Talking out loud.
Ducks say quack quack quack.
Dogs say woof woof woof.
We go yack yack yack.
Is there a difference?
Ducks and Dogs can relate
with each and every mate.
We study books and the law
and still can't communicate.
When ducks and dogs get cross,
they duke it out to be boss.
Yet there is a difference
between ducks dogs and us.
We think, talk and write about
this and ...

Chat But Not Like That
When he can't talk face to face
Sensing the tension
In his sentences
Watching his mouth
What words would
Come out
She'd sent him off
Into a tangent of
Tedium
Fragments of
Nonsensical speech
He'd been forced
To speak
In truth
He had nothing
To say
So he treads back
To his cave
Where he texts her

ConVERSEation
Cryptical clues
On the tip of the tongue
Performed in a verse
Or a line of a song
Meaningful messages
Massaging your soul
Lost in a rhythm
You just can't control
Regular chat won't
Give you this thrill
But tuning in
to a poem
Certainly will

Seeing Things
What is the scale of reality?
We all have our own truths
Our own views
How do you quantify actuality?
“A fantasy is a vision
It is solely in your vision
It is envisioned by you
A vision is a fantasy”
But saints had visions!
Politicians have visions!
Some people have double vision
Anyone that has sight has vision
Whether they have a sixth sense
Or no...

Two way conversation
A two way conversation is something very nice,
Because you both can talk in a way that is very concise,
One way talking could be something so unkind,
But the art of conversation can help you with your mind,
To fuse two minds together can become one,
If you do your pain will be gone,
To share and care is a special thing indeed,
It takes the nucleus to plant the seed,
What yo...

Conversation in a Harbour Cafe
It was all in her eyes
When he said
I
He saw the tear
When he breathed
L
O
V
E
He knew her mind
When he stopped
Outside the mist rolled in
As ropes slipped off bollards
When he left
He heard her say
M
Y
When the door slammed
He hoped she said
L
O
V
E
When he heard
It was all in his mind
Outside the engine sta...

Late Night Thoughts
Late Night Thoughts
1: „You know the feeling you get
When you just lay in your bed
Stare at your ceiling
Thinking bout life and its meaning
Realizing that nothing will last
Future, Present and Past
None of them matters
Cause nothings forever”
2: “So if life doesn’t matter
Then death doesn´t matter”
1: “yeah but guess what´s better?”
2:”Mhh… ...

Interlude
When the wind blows
And the snow starts to fall
And the sun is nowhere to be seen
When the skies are all grey
And the temperature plummets
And the morning frost lays like a blanket
The best place to be is a pub by the fire
With family and friends and our lovers
With great conversation and music
Much laughter to lighten the mood
We can shut out the cold uninviting
And enjoy this brief i...

Water
MAN: In so short a time
I saw a future
Flow
Created
From the formless waters
Born
From the darkness
The way begins
All words are water
Flowing
GAIA: From my innermost being
I gave abundance!
My words flow from the mountain top
My words give succour to the land
My words are the waters of the sea
PRIEST: The ...

The mute speaker
We talk.
A lot about her,
yet I know nothing about her.
She shapes words
but I hear emptiness
and all that exists her mouth is air.
She gives me carbon dioxide
but little care,
little advice or help,
little information.
Just ambiguous comments,
large words meaning nothing
and letters sounding silence.
