PoemsWhere words, music and worlds collide

I wrote this poem after realising that we could view life as a set of frames, a complete collector set of "Each Day" slices. Imagine a different scene every day but getting better and better each day. [...]

I wrote this poem after early morning thoughts about what makes us do things in life I had the idea that it is life itself that bullies us into doing things. Also, if we were not here, we would be like the rocks and sea bullied by physics and forcefields. [...]

I wrote this poem on a cold futile winter's day. A theme that often crops up in my poems. I had the thought of waiting for something, usually a lost love or other need, and not being whole until that after the event. [...]

I wrote this poem during autumn about the sadness and beauty of my favourite season. After a sweltering mad summer, Autumn is giving us space to prepare for the next part of the year. [...]

I wrote this poem thinking about our lifelong friend - water. I thought about a river having emotions and feelings about the time of day. Silly I know, but what if it loved the cool, dark nights. [...]

I wrote this poem wondering about what was the earth doing below our feet. I thought about the earth as watching us as we came and went throughout the centuries. It is specifically centred around two lovers going for a picnic in a shady forest. [...]

Does anyone want to know what makes them as they are? Anyone curious about how they got this far? Do you need you to think about. [...]

Does anyone want to know what to think about our next stage of evolution? Anyone curious about how to get further than the mater. [...]

Does anyone want to know why I would want to ask if I could die here? Anyone curious about how to get to this state of being? Do. [...]

Does anyone want to know what a "hard" holiday is? Anyone curious about how to get one or what it could even be? Do you need you. [...]

Anyone want to know what bliss is? Anyone curious about how to get it or when it happens? Finding perfect happiness or bliss sometimes seems impossible. In reality though, so as not to be disappointed,  it can come from the smallest things. [...]

Anyone wanting to follow the continual ritual of wanting more? Anyone also wanting to find out when it will be enough to satisfy us?. Want a tale of us all waiting for the final moment when we will be happy, content and fulfilled?. [...]

Anyone wanting verse to show how we can be tricked by time and are given a slice of it per day?. Or a poem for documenting the slipping away of the future? Or if you need to know that now is forever?. [...]

Anyone want to watch the land through the rain on a cold hill?. Or read a poem for the isolation and viewing of distant landscape?. Do you need to understand our valleys and rains will be here for as long as we may be?. [...]

Anyone want to see the viewpoint of a slow-moving, extremely time based evolutionary creature who's life is long enough to witness aeons of history?. Or read a poem for the realisation, that some things take forever to happen, but they will?. [...]

Anyone want verse to assure them that unrequited love is common and real?. Or a poem for the love of love and its uncertainty?. Do you need to tell yourself that love could be inches away?. [...]

Anyone want verse to keep them going step by step, knowing its all happened before?. Or a poem for the love of companionship and comforting knowledge of certainty?. Do you need to crave certainty and love?. [...]

Anyone want verse to teach them how free we are today being able to keep our lives where we want?. Or a poem for love and the dragging away of you for some mandatory service? Do you need to realise how relatively free we are?. [...]

Anyone wanting verse to let them gently know that they are not so free in the world? Or that so many creatures and events have claims on their being and time?. Or a poem for the realisation, and therefore conquest, of what is and what is not ours to take?. [...]

Anyone want verse to teach them that a boring, dull day can be the normal?. Or a poem for waiting in hope and waiting for something to happen?. Do you need to know that waiting can be both tantalizing and excruciating?. [...]

Anyone want verse to give them the end to end message?. Or a poem for the missing times as we journey though life?. Do you need to slow down and realise that this is it, not the past or future?. [...]
