Reflections of Yesterday 



Reflecting on my yesterday’s, I look deep into the depths 

Of what was clear and simple, to the troubled murkiness 

Pondering on happenings and wondering if I was right.

I don’t stay to long, just long enough to understand my plight 

The past is best left where it is but I take the lessons on

So I can understand myself when I might take another step wrong 

The shadows and reflection can distort what was the truth 

I dive deep to find the feeling that are buried from my youth

Luxury 


Driving through Normandy, France

Fields of green and birds that dance 

A peaceful day, gentle wind and warm    

Butterflies and sparrows that swarm

The graves of soldiers, row upon row

Fought for freedom and chance to grow

Luxury  each day for you and me to see

Tomorrows they gave, for us to be free

Praise to the Bee

Praise the bee that flowers pollinate
A thimble full’s honey a year to make
Nectar so sweet I spread on my bread
Without you bee, I’ve only jam instead
Questioning would there be fruit at all bee
 For making jam in season ready for me
Fly off now safely bee to come back again
Work as you do daily is never in vain
You bee keep us ticking nicely on and on
Because without you bee we’d soon be gone

Craving Sun

I’m craving some more sunshine and I want it to last all day

Certainly at least week or more, before it goes and hides away

I’m sick of British summers, soaked again and again by rain

I want to dine al fresco daily, that I can’t is a blooming pain

What’s the point in England’s beauty, I really cannot see

Flowing fields with flowers, seen sheltering under a tree

If I can’t go out and see it, experience and catch some sun

I’d rather move to somewhere else, without my wellies on

England bloody England, what’d you do with flaming June

Picnics, fairgrounds, lovers smelling flowers in full bloom

 

Penetrating the Melt

I had a profound experience, well another one anyway

Deep and meaningful pretty much, and yet again today

I now allow myself to be, just me, without facade or lies

Waking up to the universe, I throw my cares in the sky

Committing time to live as me, without any masquerade

Say what I think and feel how I feel, my very own crusade

I dance and sing to music of love, twirling expressions felt 

Wholeheartedly I dive in deep,  I’m penetrating the melt
