Echoes of Life

Category: Poetry

Poem 2

How do we define ourselves?

adrift from life’s shores,

isolated with our thoughts

waiting for a chance encounter.

Those that are Tyrants,

are condemned for their crimes,

the realization that their Kingdom

has now become a mausoleum.

Oceans of Time

Can you see beyond the horizon

Carried by one’s thoughts

Across the oceans of time

Westworld

what once was old

is new again

restored to it’s original purpose

an endless cycle

of fulfillment and wonder

a life of solitude

can bring about reflection

to the ever fluidity of change

whatever we perceive

shall be stored in memory

as is the will of heaven made

Thoughts that Remain

where there is light

darkness cannot prevail

when there is resolve

the mind can find peace

when one feels remorse

the healing process can begin

If one pursues wealth

their heart will become poor

reaching back to the past

makes us it’s prisoner

relying on technology

makes slaves of us all

Chaos Eldar 40K: The Dark Flame Of Terror

what was forgotten

has been consumed by chaos

weilding terror fuelled by flame

their battle cry galvanized

darkness shall prevail

the horror awaits

those who live in fear

of their foreshadowing

Poem 1

Sunlight shines down

brightening the day

casting shadows

across the way

And though these illusions

seem to say

what remains

is here to stay

Objects are placed

to occupy a space

in one case

they replace

Singing throughout the day

as the rain falls silently

blackbirds begin to nest

the spring brings love

with young to cater for

the birds sing throughout the day

A Girl In Amsterdam

there was a girl in Amsterdam

who was quite a fancy

and when she spoke to you

she said her name was Nancy

breaking down these stereotypes

and being a bit pricey

next door to her

they looked a little dicy

walking away I turned back

they had already retreated

the lights had gone out

and my wallet was depleted

call of the hoopoe

call of the hoopoe

singing away

through diverse weather

he shall stay

in the spring

she will have eggs to lay

in my garden blissfully

together peacefully

Nature’s dream

can we dream

of something unreal

and in that reality

make our dreams come true

from the deepest oceans

to the highest mountains

may we be one

with nature’s dream
