Love for another mile

I came here alone
Walked twice across this earth
Saw sights and peoples
All after my humble birth

I tried to learn all I could
Kept my eyes wide
Saw good and bad
From challenge I did not hide

I met another traveller
Hands held, minds meld
Saw life and love
Heart thawed, emotions melt

I was happy to my core
Years passed no need for any more
Saw no end
Then it ended. Pain endure

I was all alone
Delivered to my true state
Saw no hope, no other
No love, no partner, no mate

I feel need now
Some time later see a smile
See joy, happiness
A hand to hold for a while
A love to endure for another mile

Ordeal

Rolling waves crash over my love
Taking us off our feet and to our knees
Our path doused and no longer clear
Unable to be guided by what we see

Our hearts in cycle, waltzing through life
Heading for embrace, pirouette, and kiss
Now pulled into the sea, disrupted,
Drowning for lack of horizon, no near miss

Hand slips from hand, bonds break
Ties pull taut, are strained then snap
What is this ordeal? why allow this pain?
Doing the right thing? Whatever, no going back

Love your life

Blank page, clean slate
It’s up to you what you make
Curves or a straight line
Paint fast or take your time
Draw an expansive landscape
Sketch a fantasy portrait
Use colours bright or grey
It’s your decision every day
Make of this new start
A desire from the heart
Of this new page
A happier new stage
No matter what you do
Make sure the work, works for you

Simple Loves

Walking down your street in the early morn
Waking then falling back to sleep before the dawn
A break in the rain when the day is full of showers
A first sip of coffee when you had none for hours
The hope in the summer before you go away
A bite to eat when you’ve been hungry all day
Simple joys available to all
Be grateful for what’s in front of you
Smile at your good fortune
Be positive, that’s all you have to do

Three Words

In three words do lives entwine
A tapestry of climbing shoots and vines
Growing toward loves great light
Together strong against any plight
A man might wait for forty years
Until these crashing sounds he hears
So whenever spoken, quiet or loud
These three words should make you proud
Should make you meek and strive to be
Of this commitment, most worthy
What’s more, if this incantation comes
From the girl whose spirit you becomes
Then you’ve made it, found your goal
Your sun, your star, mate for your soul
In just three words said fleetingly
You can give of yourself completely
And so in return to you I say
I promise in word, in deed and every way
To be better than the day before
And love you for now and evermore

Quiet before the Storm

Quiet before the storm
No sign of what’s to come
Silence, hours after dawn
Still warmth of the sun
No one seems to know
Though I’m feeling sick
Stomach shaking so
The news approaches quick
A last look into eyes
Innocent until they hear
Parents groans and sighs
The maelstrom very near
A last laugh out loud
A smile of loving care
Then into a veil of cloud
Strong winds you cannot bare
Words stick in the throat
Sound carries meanings raw
No attempt to sugar coat
The fact we are no more
What was one is now
Split and separate
No point in why or how
The break is definite
So convey the message
Say that you do feel
Keep the young ones safe
But tell them this is real
They will adapt to change
The fix here is for the best
Future happiness arranged
In two divided nests
Their eyes forever wiser
You hope their hearts will trust
You’ve been honest, fair
And your reasoning is just

Tonight

This is your last day alone
Today is the end of your wander
Forlorn hope living on your own
Until now every chance squandered

Tonight, you meet your partner
All you have learned works out
Your self knowledge, insights garnered
Are shared, no disguise, little doubt

Electric sparks when holding hands
Attraction, chemistry ensured
Relaxed talking through life plans
Open, honest, self assured

He recognises you as potential kin
Wants to build a house, a home
Wants to help you, the situation you are in
Sounds like a match in calm warm tone

Be happy.
Believe in tonight
You might be well suited
You might.

Quest for Love

A year passes
A year begins
A few losses
Many wins
Games change
Life moves on
Home rearranged
Old world gone
New loves flourish
Old foes forgotten
New hope nourished
New dream begotten
Smile grows
Burdens lighter
Brow unfurrows
Poised fighter
Ready for now
Well set
Knows how
Will go get
Have all I need
Happy zone
Fear recedes
Never alone
Birthday wish
Is for more
The same dish
As just before
Awoken alive
Heart I’m made of
About to thrive
Quest for love

On Course for Destiny

With love, you want for nought
You’re happy, content, at peace
You don’t worry about the house you bought
You can work hard or have a life of ease
With love, you need not fret
The rest will all come good
You have everything you need to get
You’ve gathered all you should
With love, you are never alone
Your heart and arms are full
With love you always feel at home
Inspired, each day is never dull
With love, your path is clear
Be all that you can hope to be
You know who you have to hold near
On course for your destiny

Lucky Man

I’m a lucky man
Thanks to ancestors
Who made me strong
I’m a lucky man
Grateful for all I have
A life full and long

I’m a lucky man
With family and friends
Who rarely stands alone
I’m a lucky man
With loving growing kids
And a happy warm home

I’m a lucky man
Who has his health
And mind at ease
I’m a lucky man
With access to wealth
Can do as I please

I’m a lucky man
Met an amazing girl
When I least suspected
I’m a lucky man
Our love is divine
Though never expected

I’m a lucky man
I’ll be the best I can
Head high, walking tall
I’m a lucky man
Good and happy
Who gives thanks for all
