swallow
fly away home
always reaching
new destinations
the call of spring rings true
as do the leaves of autumn
when summer has gone
and winter has come
parting of the ways
leave behind sweet memories
of bygone days
swallow
fly away home
always reaching
new destinations
the call of spring rings true
as do the leaves of autumn
when summer has gone
and winter has come
parting of the ways
leave behind sweet memories
of bygone days
to feel trapped
and abandoned
left with only ones thoughts
to be guided in darkness
the light shining through
a pathway to enlightenment
from the dawn comes humanity
the new way is forged
surrounded by friends and family
this pathway is ours to discover
the veg is spilling over
all sorts of growth
pumpkins are ready
couchettes looking good
peas climbing high
sunflowers peaking out
carrots popping up
potatoes growing down
wildflowers bloom
bees humming past
all colours as bright as the sun
across the clouds
the hills wait
as the road winds down
intently I feel the need
to be apart of it all
and without understanding
take nothing away from it
Rose petals strewn across my lawn
as if on a wedding day
Changing colours
the patterns of which
reflect the day
each moment is magical
The changing clouds
across the sky
bring back happy memories
by the ocean tales
I follow the moon
her pattern draws the day
and crosses the sky
from morning to night
each afternoon past
collect those jewels
while they last
They caught my gaze
down a lane I have not been.
curiously I went down
that lane
to admire;
the beautiful blue flowers.
I took a photo
to remind me
of what had transpired;
the joy of inspiration.
There, right there,
infront of me;
a sudden dart
and a worm.
the catch, the prize:
for me, as though it was…
he flew away
to return again.
a butterfly came to visit me
her colour a blur
of brown and black
but I could make out her eyes
as if to say hello
farewell and goodbye
