Side step, one face, then another, Connections differ, grow, change. Stay, hold, let go. Experience, contain, Flip, switch, turn over. Walk through the shadows. Step in and out. Touch the mirror, Pull back. Let the energy flow. Sit and contain within, Pause, then push play. So together we combine and separate, Dancing in rhythm with … Continue reading Poem: A Spirit’s Tune and Dance

Poem: Stepping into Nostalgia
Stepping into nostalgia, Swept away in memory, Connection to emotion. Small touches of contentedness, Give fruit to future thought, Of happy desires of yesteryear. Take the hand of previous you, And pass it on to the you to come. Dream of the small pleasures. Dance with them, And let the emotions wash over you.

Poem: A Travelers Advice
Walk free, walk sure, Foot to the ground, Steady pace kept. Be alert and aware, As you march forth, Into the world. Confident you may be, But wisdom you hold, Reminds you of the folly, Of those who ignore the signs, That surround them and warn, Of what is ahead. Listen well ye traveler, Ensure … Continue reading Poem: A Travelers Advice

Take a holiday aboard this flying vessel. Come stand by the edge, Reach out and touch the clouds, Hear the whisper of … Continue reading Poem: Calling All Aboard the Airship

Poem: Stand Tall, Guard, and Defend
Stand your ground, Impassioned and righteous. The kingdom still stands at your back. Tradition and history, Urge you on to maintain the line, And push back that which threatens to destroy. Forces outside endanger that within. Stand tall, guard, and defend. You know the path, the way to go. Falter not, brave warrior, Time and … Continue reading Poem: Stand Tall, Guard, and Defend

Poem: Enjoying the Beauty of Centuries Past
Relaxing with paintings, Half a world away, Enjoying the beauty of centuries past. From the masters of the ages, Step into each image, Dance and swim in the picture, Leap out and start again. Different styles and colors, Still scenes just the same. People, landscapes, and other things, Lives held within a moment, In a … Continue reading Poem: Enjoying the Beauty of Centuries Past
