The very word itself is inspiring; it conjures up in my mind a world of infinite wonders that I can only marvel at.  Wonders that my head remind me that nature does not revolve around me, but around a vast universe of possibility.  For whether I acknowledge it or not, Mother Nature and all her diverse energies will continue to exist long after I have evaporated into the sand of earthly time.  She will continue to vibrate at her own frequency ever evolving and enhancing her beauty until she metamorphosis into the star she is meant to be.

The poems and writings on this site and within my books are purposely simple and are meant as building blocks to deeper thoughts (yours not mine).  They are reminders of things that in time have been overlooked or forgotten.

Please accept these little ramblings as signposts to the world you might have left behind in the innocence of yesterday

Speak Louder Sweet Angel P.O.M. April

Speak Louder Sweet Angel

For I cannot hear

The things that you‘re saying

Please make them more clear

Your voice is so quiet

The world drowns it out

And it’s not your way

To stand there and shout

But I am still listening

Though sometimes it seems

I’m lost in my thoughts

Instead of my dreams

On the road that I follow

You’re there at each turn

From all that you tell me

I know I can learn

If only the noises

Of life would subside

My path would be golden

With you by my side

Leading me onward

To a world full of light

Just speak a bit louder

And all will be right.

Simple Rhymes & Who Am I

SIMPLE RHYMES

THESE SIMPLE RHYMES

HAVE MUCH TO SAY

I WISH I COULD WRITE THEM

ANOTHER WAY

WITH FLOWING PROSE’S

AND ABJECT NOUNS

ECLIPTIC VISIONS

OF THINGS PROFOUND

BUT ALAS I’M ONLY, LITTLE ME

WITH ALL OF MY VOCABULARY

I’VE TRIED TO LEARN

A BRAND NEW PHRASE

MY INTELLECT

I’D HOPE TO RAISE

BUT HERE IT SITS

WITHOUT EXCUSE

AND WON’T RESPOND

TO MY ABUSE

WHY SHOULD IT LEARN

ANOTHER WORD

TO WRITE SUCH DALLIANCE

WOULD BE ABSURD

WHEN YEAH AND NAY IS SURFICE

Who Am I

A question from your Guardian Angel

Who am I, what do you see

A whisper of a promise

That maybe I could be

Its likely I’m a memory

Of a day that’s passed you by

Or that quiet little moment

Upon the edge of time

I rest right here before you

For nowhere can I go

Just a whisper of a promise

That once you used to know

Before the world of wonder

It lost it’s magic spell

In a age so full of promise

You used to know so well

The cause of life is costly

And brings it share of scars

But God and all his Angels

Will make forever ours

For forever is a garden

With flowers full of care

And an everlasting promise

You’ll find me standing there

    I always find your poems so refreshing and indeed relaxing. When life becomes a whirl and gets too fast to cope with I just ‘fix’ myself by reading what you bring forward. Indeed a great tonic for me. Thank you Phil x

I have a firm belief in angels and feel them around me all of the time, especially when I need an extra bit of help in making decisions

Also, as I get older, I have a much better appreciation of the beauty of Mother Nature and enjoy nothing more than to sit in my garden and let her overwhelm me with her many gifts

The poems and writings on this website are reflections of my thoughts on various subjects, as they wander through my mind
