The Wake of Dawning

Tell to me of true love stirring
Heart cold upon a somewhere stone
Beside the river fast and flowing
Beside the rivers rushes bending
Comes there firefly and sunbeam
Owl and vixen homeward fleeting
Feather and fur that smell of night
Homeward
Into the early nearly light

In the misting hint of sunlight
Hidden beneath a somewhere stone
So close to true loves calling
Near the river fast...

So Far Away So Long Ago

It’s starting to rain again
Running down my face again
My smile stolen
Carried far out to sea
A ragged shingle edge
Stinging
A ringing loud and clear
Shells singing in my ear
Wild white horses prancing
Dancing all ways ever
So far away
So long ago

One Day Every Day

One day every day
Tinker tailor soldier sailor
Hours all special moments fleeting
Would kiss me as lightly
Dreams passing like clouds
A veil
Amor vincit omnis
Richman poor man
Soft falling snow
All is silent not a word spoken
Sweet stolen breath of time
Beggar man thief
Tempus fugit amor manet
There will be a time forever
One day every day
                                           ...

In The Time It Takes

In the time it takes to turn a corner
In the going of that moment
The rain
In the time it takes to close your eyes
In the waking dread of darkness
Spiral deepest down and down
Wherein long cold fingers claw
Wherein the night grows ever darker
In the time it takes to turn a corner
In the going of that moment
The rain
In the time it takes to root and tangle
Blood red fruits await the win...
