From Giant To Giant
I love to bird watch...
These tiny little feathered friends, dependent on their creator for food, for shelter.
Singing every morning no matter the storms that come, praises they twirp from their branches as the sun rises yet again.
When I feed the cattle every day, little fat finches hop at my feet, they are no longer scared to be around me, waiting to catch remnants of molasses and corn bits.
It seems as of late there are hundreds around this place. It's so beautiful to me, how this helpless little creature could be fed by a human such as myself.
Trusting I won't...

Loving Kind .
Sometimes I stack beautiful memories in my mind for the days my heart falls behind, and my eyes fill with tears. If I feel like my life is being unkind.
In thoughts like your best days are over have been for a while.
I sit with tea cupped in my hands and I float to another land.Where I am laughing so much because of a joke and the love of having people around me.Or looking at a text that ends with a heart and a smiley face.
Or the time an unexpected kindness made the world feel less cold.These are all my treasure troves the trinkets I put on when life is being directed by...

Intense
They used to live in tents
Under the sky's expanse
With earth beneath their feet
In freedoms sacred dance
In harmony they thrived
With natures gentle hand
But shadows crept upon them
And darkness claimed their lands
The whispers of the wind
Once filled with ancient lore
Now carry cries of sorrow
For peace that is no more
The rivers song of life
Now tainted with regret
Their sacred grounds defiled
A loss they can't forget
The forests once their refuge
And shelter for their kin ...

Simple Pendulum
What in the name of a wee man is this?
I just want to feel this cool breeze as I freeze due to..
Me, sitting here with some very few who don't go by #Me too..
Even though I am a rebel, I won't lose my fate
I need a single or two schedules for each an every date
I have lived for years, decades counting my days
I will only survive those days calculating everything I can say
And since my deeds I must pay
While the Sunshines I guess I have to make my hay..
On a very cool surface at night,...

Because You Are Everything...
I don’t know when I stopped breathing for myself.
Somewhere along the years,
My lungs became an echo of you,
Filling with the air you leave behind,
Sustaining me in ways I never thought I’d need.
I see you—
Not the version you show the world,
But the one you hide.
The you who sits in silence when no one is watching,
Who carries the weight of words unspoken,
And pain unshared.
I see her, and I love her.
I love her more than I can explain,
And I’m begging you: let me love her too.
Let me in.
Not because I can...

This Ain't No Bull
I had a dream once, I was in this building full of rooms and people, then all of the sudden I hear folk screaming and running, and as I turn around, here is this red bull charging through everyone. I take off running for my life when I realized he had his sights set on me only. I ran into one of the rooms trying to hide behind crates and stuff the rooms were filled with, but the bull knew exactly where I was, as he horned the goods tossing them about until he was in range of me by two or three feet, and as we locked eyes, all the sudden he turned into a black bull, and I took the pause as an...

a day in Cascais
A day in Cascais
Storms and rain have blown away
Green grass grows on cracked pavement
This place was once a low-slung hill
With small farms and animals
The landscape disappeared under concrete
Apartment blocks and shops
A tree-lined avenue, the town’s pride
Up-rooted trees from somewhere else
Re-planted
The trees found rich soil, have big leaves
Looks great in spring
Is this progress, but the struggling grass
On the pavement’s cracks
Will one day make a landscape rich and green
Storms and rain have blown away
Green grass grows on cracked pavement
This place was once a low-slung hill
With small farms and animals
The landscape disappeared under concrete
Apartment blocks and shops
A tree-lined avenue, the town’s pride
Up-rooted trees from somewhere else
Re-planted
The trees found rich soil, have big leaves
Looks great in spring
Is this progress, but the struggling grass
On the pavement’s cracks
Will one day make a landscape rich and green

Sassenach
The green of spring a backdrop, as bare feet on dewy grass pound the earth, each stride sending lace and what was once white cotten, bouncing against legs that cannot keep up, if only I could fly.
Your ship, magnificent from bow to stern, floating through white, like a ghost from the past, as sails take rest, you linger in the heavens for a moment, I will always appreciate that moment. ❤️

The Teaching Task
Lockdown over, I had to head to school
my pupils waiting to learn the golden rule
I got ready and put on that mask
following the health protocols is a must
How would I each word articulate?
and those whole lessons explicate!
***
Principals in their towers have their say
and teachers, Skills For Life, have to convey
So eager to see my pupils and join the classroom
no time to spend with colleagues in the teachers room
Just virtual wishes.. Love and hugs
and the joy of all the social media tags.

Walls
Take your
Judgement
Let it rest
My heart
On sleeve
Represents
Drink my flaws
Here right now
I'll break
These walls
Someway
Somehow

Unforgettable
I wonder, myself whom I venerate
The voice of my heart if loud fair enough!
The hive of my life I strive to relate
Aspire to unleash my wonders, seems tough.
To craft a soul of light, creed of the core
The quest for mines of gems never shall end
The harsh thrusts I’ve learned not to deplore
For every stance there shall be a firm stand.
Pearly prints along your path, your voice carve
Sound sounds are seized and unforgettable
Medallions feeding souls to never starve
The bliss is a blessing increasable.
Sowing abiding...

Perpetual Derelict Peak
There it looms in front of me, steep, mocking and wreathed in hatred, my task to climb, I can’t decline, all else be damned the only way, so intrinsic
I have to climb and slip to my feet, scrambling up the scree until I see the bottom falling into the very top of itself, in repeating concussions of form
Foothold, with my pointy toes, handheld, it becomes brisk and torturous
Come climb, the mountain if you dare
Every ounce of care will be swiped from your soul, once you realise the sheerness of its height
All madness drives you onwards,...
