Moonbeams
Moonbeams
Float
Over the charcoal waters
Shimmering with the succulent waves
A siren rises
From the deep, dark, depths
Pirouetting
Under the glimmering moon
As tricklets of water
Slide off her glistening tail
Dropping to the ocean below
Her dreams drift
As the moonbeams
Fill her eyes
Two floating orbs
Her ivory vision
Lost in a dream

A Siren’s Calling
Where I lay my burdens
Hoping for redemption
To taste the fruits of the afterlife
For the hunger life refuses to gratify
My nakedness as I lay open
Contoured in agony to be awaken
In the rush of time, my borrowed soul walks upright in its own reliance
Only to accept faith unseen
Pleading tongues behind my willingness to stand
Yet, as I wobble to remain
Cries of submissive fleshly sins
Longing to be bathed and clothed in the arms of the Virgin Mary
Anoint my heaven on earth with drops of sacred oil ...
Hoping for redemption

Pleading tongues behind my willingness to stand
Yet, as I wobble to remain
Cries of submissive fleshly sins

A Sirens Silent Harp
Wassailing
Whilst sailing
The deep blue sea
Virgin foam
Frothing over shale
As broken shells
Make music
Swishing, and swashing
Constantly washing
Sea-cleansed fossilised pebbles
Dashed
Driftwood
Bleached
Then beached
As a choir of seagulls
Shriek in unison
With the tides
As sirens wassail, and drink
Serenade
The soft sea froth, and foam
With silt, and sand
But no clay to loam
No mould for the harp

The Return
The sea
Came gushing in
Like stampeding
Wild horses
Their manes
Caught in the chill wind
Like the surf
Then like ghosts
Vanished Into the mists
These were soon followed
By more horses
Rearing up
With the crashing tides
And these too
Would disappear
And so it continued
I remained, transfixed
By these apparitions
Until finally
There was one
That had a silvery horn
I expected that this too
Would go the same way
As all the others
Its mane
White as the surf
As it...
Came gushing in
Like stampeding
Wild horses
Their manes
Caught in the chill wind
Like the surf

Vanished Into the mists

And these too

And so it continued

That had a silvery horn

Would go the same way
As all the others
Its mane
White as the surf

love's tragedy
Love’s tragedy
Once I loved a dolphin and kept her in the swimming pool
I wore a frogman suit we spent hours splashing about
but noticed she was getting sad and missed her own kind
If you love someone, you have to set them free
I wrapped her in wet blankets and drove her to the beach
her family came close to shore, greeting her.
I visited the beach every day, and she glad to see me
as was her family, who accepted me as one of them.
One day when I came for a swim, she wasn’t there
the other dolphins came and made clicking sounds looking ...

The Mersirens
A giant goldfish bowl
Splashed into the ocean
The life inside
Swam around
As mercurial bubbles
Rose to the surface
As the fish mouths
Seemed to speak....
From my observations
They kept repeating
Just one word
Bub bub bub
Unknown to me
Every bub
Had possible multiple meanings
And it became to late
Before i realised
That they weren't fish
But an alien invasion force
From a distant water world
Within seconds
Or was it days?
A large bubble
Not disimilar

Inland swimming pool
Inland swimming pool.
Between two hills, a chasm, in winters rain fills up the gap
a lake is born, in May, June and the middle of July the water
is fine, if a bit greying.
The lake has no outlet and is used by farmers for their crops
if there is scant rain.
In August, the lake is silty, but it is the only swimming pool
we have, we sit by the bank drink beer watch children play
it is our day at the beach.
When the lake is dry, we find skeletons of animals and
that of a missing person who went swimming in the night.
Although we say...

a seraph (edited
A seraph
I knew as soon as she entered the room
she was unlike anyone I had met before.
She sat down, began some embroidery
a silk dress for a delightful nuptial.
We kissed at the entrance of the door
to hell, the ground was white as snow
her eyes, bottomless green, flickered
in a snake-like desire.
We had been caught in the glare of
unbecoming lust, we ran to the bus
shelter.
Silent rain, she wanted me to take
the late bus heavenward.
The lift was out of order, her face
a was a miasma of the unmembered. ...

astronaut
The astronaut
They said the moon was every surface full
of light, no deep shadows behind rocks
yet an astronaut insists the moon is jam-packed
of folks living in underground cities having hilarious
time hiding from invaders who explore trying
to find life on the moon, a world parallel to the earth.
Invaders in funny suits, stealing rock to take
back to earth to see if there is anything worthy
to exploit.
The cave dwellers shake their heads the sick rocks
that destroyed the moon landscape, they take back
to the earth, what...

The lessons
In life
Are as clear
As a bell;
Who we are,
What we say,
What we do,
Are the points
That we make
Whenever
We shake
What we mean
By what
For us
Rings true.

arrested freedom
Arrested freedom
Seagulls fill the air with joy
anchored sailboats tugs want to be free
sail around the world alone,
as a Japanese fishing vessel did
end up at the coast of Canada.
Alas, caught by the coast guard as it
prepared to sail for Chile and Peru.
Anchored in a lonely bay
waits for her captain to show up.
This slavey of navigation
had been a year of freedom.
Seagulls fly, sleek bodies white as snow.
A storm is brewing
the ocean is theirs alone.

small fry
Small fry
Fingerlings are playing among seagrass in shallow water
they stop when the big shadow of an adult passes overhead
sometimes they play is so exciting they forget
and end swallowed whole by a fish that knows no mercy.
Alas, the tiny fry has a short memory and soon leave
the seagrass attracted by shiny pebbles shines like nuggets
of gold on a summer day.
The play stops as it just like old school friends drift apart
to other seas and too smart to anyone bearing false bait.
There are no promises for elderly fish when finally...
