On the Ebbs and Flows of the tide

There will be ebbs and flows of the tide
But Still Waters running here
Not the Tempest of yesterday
Rather a gurgling stream that’s running clear
We’ve come through stormy oceans
We’ve been tossed around by waves
We’ve sailed the seas of heartbreak
With Lost souls not being saved
We’ve been on crests of waves so high
that they seemed to climb forever
Only [...]

In a Poets Mind

Take a walk in a poets mind
and leave the world you know behind
Walk in places that you’ve never been
and see the things that you’ve never seen
Feel emotion, real and raw
but be protected from it all
feel a love that’s encompassing
the beauty of the finest things
Nature in her best of clothes
Mountains, Seas, how the fair winds blow
seal [...]

It aint what we say. Its what we don’t say

It aint what we say
It’s what we don’t say!
Its reading the gaps in between
It aint what we say
Its what we don’t say!
that tells me what you mean
If you ever listen to people
and their words come spouting out
listen to the text by all means
but listen to whats missing out
So often we as people
rarely mean what we [...]

Heart Breaks Mend

When you love someone
But no longer they love you
When you love someone
But they tell you that your through
When your hearts been left in tatters
Smashed in pieces like broken glass
Like a mirror fallen off a wall
You just can’t stick it back
When you love someone
But they have gone away
you see them with someone else
your heart breaks another [...]

The Old Fishermans Waltz

Shall we dance little one
Shall we dance?
Take a turn around the floor
Shall we dance?
We’ve both been here before
Dancing Quick step cross the floor
So shall we dance little one
Shall we dance?
The Band strikes up a tune
Which has been encompassing the moon
Since life on earth
and the age of man was young
It’s been whistled down the years
In [...]

Better every day

I’m getting better every day
I’m stronger than before
I’ve learned to look away
And I’m not coming back for more
I’ve been down there on the ground
floored by a boxers punch
seen the stars circling around my head
and then been counted out
As I lay there upon the ground
the tears I wept were sore
I wallowed in self pity
swore I couldn’t [...]

When tempests rage at night

When all around,your world comes down
When tempests rage at night
When disaster threatens your every touch
and you can’t tell wrong from right
When no one hears a word you say
And no one really cares
When fear strikes home
When you’re home alone
and oppression fills the air
When your strength is gone
and you’re too tired to move
But you can’t lay down [...]

Her Moses Heart

She could not hold on to her heart
No matter how she tried
She could not hold on to her heart
For it would not be pacified
So she gave her heart away
On the river of her tears
to the ocean of the stars
for a thousand years
She could not hold on to her heart
When she went to sleep [...]

Surveying the Life

I survey this place,but i leave no trace
that I was ever really here
I look back through the mists of time
to when youth was mine
and all seemed oh so clear
I have burned my bridges
I have cleared my decks
I have crashed and I have burned
Yet phoenix like,from the ashes
I have risen for another turn
Death I have seen
Followed [...]

Sunshine in rainclouds

Thank you for the sunshine
which you brought my way today
Your ready smile,your cheerful laugh
Helped me on my way
When first we met,
the clouds were forming round about
But you brought the sunshine in
I have been smiling ever since
flashing a cheeky grin
I looked out at the sky tonight
The forecast was for rain
But the bleak dark clouds around my [...]
