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

Take Me To The Waterfall P.O.M. October

The Guayabo Falls in Cuba 2014 which inspired this Poem (One of my favorites from my archive)

Take me to the waterfall

So I can see it cry

Weeping for each moment

That quickly passes by

Flowing over pebbles

And running through the glades

With oxygenating bubbles

And ripples that will fade

Majestic in its beauty

While singing out its praise

Dropping like a heartbeat

On rocks that natures laid

Blissful in its journey

Against an ebbing sun

But darkness makes no difference

As forever it will run

With tears that join together

To wash the days retreat

I will see you by the waterfall

The perfect place to meet.

A little resting place before you walk back up the trail.

A Memory Of Love & Accepting Change

A little later than inspected, I am back from my Autumn break in Crete.

A Memory of Love

We all just leave a memory

And perhaps a broken heart

So different from when we came here

At that time we called the start

We learnt so many lessons

And stepped on lots of toes

But we hope we’ve left a thought

That makes a love that grows

For what is life without it

We really could not say

So I leave to you a memory

Of the love I sent your way

Thought To Ponder – “The little reed, bending with the force of the wind, soon stood upright again when the storm had passed” – Aesop

Accepting Change

I will fly like the wind she said

I’ll chase after the stars

I’ll look for new moonbeams

And pretend they are ours

I’ll sail on the oceans

To lands far and wide

And find us an island

Where we can just hide

I’ll climb up a mountain

And take in the view

One that I hope

I can share with just you

You only need to leave here

And all of your past

For surely you see

All these things can’t last

For I am that moment

Of which you’ve prepared

So put each foot forward

Away from your cares

And start a new chapter in life

    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
