Maldivian dream
We dig our hands into soft warm sand,floating on our backs in the sea,kissing your salty skin,our journey we begin,you feed me energy,I long to live,a long, relaxing, pleasant day,thank-you, I hope you enjoyed your stay,remember this place,and how you feel,have the strength to swim upstream,and live together your Maldivian dream, -
Perspective
History,
the future,
shifting elements,
spirits changing form,
perspective is born,
the old work to repair,
the garden trampled by youth,
both need each other to recover, -
Delicate moments
A shadow, a reflection,
instant selection,
sun warming, a gentle glow,
walking along the sea front,
waves greet us,
swept away by scents and kisses,
hands interlocked,
her hair blows across my face,
holding each other in a firm embrace,
delicate moments, -
English season
English season,
warm spring breeze,
trees filling with shades of green,
the air is fresh and clean,
cattle are chewing their cud,
the swallows are here,
diving through the sky,
the only ones who sense the urgency of this moment,
everyone else relaxing and enjoying the wonder,
sadness is on hold, gratitude and thanks to the old,
the young listen to every story told,
each with their favourite,
messages shaped by both tellers and receivers,
hope for every believer,
if I had not known the dark, wet Winter mornings,
I may never of grasped beauty shaped by the past, -
A cure for the immature
Waves crash,wind trusts,spirits blown away like dust,broken, defeated, no one to trust,gentle touch,solid hold,bitter cold,ocean swell,never dwell,why did I put you through such hell,under a spell,chemical charm,for the immature there is no cure,time will watch you grow,watching your colours slowly show, -
Immortality
Immortality,
blessed soul,
you cannot go,
in memories you cannot be gone,
you must live,
you must hold on,
your presence in my heart is strong,
don’t separate us,
don’t let us part,
I was praying this was just the start,
we need your spirit,
we need your soul,
to keep us all complete and whole, -
Soft shore
As the waves roll on the shore,
I gently remember, gently forget,
salt in the air, salt in my hair,
sand between my toes,
a gentle breeze blows,
the sun gently warming,
a peace of mind reforming,
the freshness of the sea,
the tide creeps in to meet me,
a welcome arrival,
work and survival,
fun by the sea,
in your loving company,
you teach care in every decision,
my heart beat,
my precision,
your vision,
the lapping of waves,
the souls you save,
the moments you give,
a life to live,
the ebb and flow,
as you come and go,
sanctity, the one for me, -
Generation
Her ancestors they knew,the currencies of mankind,the value of space, freedom,liquidity, movement and choice,love and safety,it couldn’t be taught,trying and failing,the cost alienating,overcompensating, misplacing,feel what you see,shape with your arms a future,finish a little before last,computer generation,throws of information,sensation and elation,little known complication,surprising dedication, -
Fruit
Roots pushed firmly in by your boot,
painful history sunk in black earth,
rescued from regret,
planted in fertile ground,
nourished and nurtured,
with love as a surround,
everything thanks to your commute,
apologies and despair,
water, love and care,
never put to bed,
the path once made,
a debt is never paid,
only the soul each day weighed,
the tree gives fruit,
painful roots, -
Creation
A terrible turn,an awful fright,penniless and powerless,in the face of great might,like the changing of the weather,she got herself together,taking stock,of memories briefly forgot,a new found momentum,steady hand on the rudder,mistakes still causing a shudder,thunder crashes,lightening strikes,new direction,a declaration,beloved nation,powerful creation,fight or flight,the owl glides quietly through the night,
