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

The Sands Of Time P.O.M. March

What can we learn from the sands of time

But a constant change and redesign

Of all we’ve come to know

From pyramids both large and small

One day will fade and be no more

Of all we’ve come to know

And seas so vast with restless flair

Will one day rise into the air

Of all we’ve come to know

And creatures that can swim and crawl

Will they be here in life at all

Of all we’ve come to know

So many questions we might ask

Especially if we’ve seen the last

Of all we’ve come to know

Then what of man I hear you say

Will he be lost along the way

With all we’ve come to know

Yes

Sprite & St Germaine

SPRITE

HE COMES FROM OUT OF NOWHERE

TO DANCE UPON A BUSH

HE BOUNCES THROUGH THE FOILAGE

AS IF HE’S IN A RUSH

HE’S CHECKING ALL THE COLOURS

TO KEEP THEM CRISP AND NEW

IT’S RARE THAT YOU WILL SEE HIM

WHEN HE COMES INTO VIEW

FOR HIS BODY SINGS SO QUICKLY

IT BLURS AMONGST THE LEAVES

AS HE LISTENS TO THE WHISPERS

THAT ROAM AROUND THE TREES

THE SONG THAT WE CALL NATURE

HE HUMS FROM MORN TIL NIGHT

AS HE GATHERS HER VIBRATIONS

TO MAKE THEM SOUND JUST RIGHT

HE PAINTS THE EARTH WITH DEWDROPS

TO KEEP HER NICE AND CLEAN

WHILE ENCOURAGING THE FLOWERS

WITH PETALS SO PRISTINE

HE HERALDS ALL THAT’S LOVELY

WITHIN THIS GARDEN SPACE

I JUST WISH HE’D STOP A MOMENT

SO I COULD SEE HIS FACE

THOUGHT TO PONDER – AM I NOT DESTROYING MY ENEMIES WHEN I MAKE FRIENDS OF THEM ? – ABRAHAM LINCOLN

ST GERMAINE

HE GIVES NO THOUGHT

TO THINGS LIKE TIME

OR ANYTHING THAT THE EARTH DESIGNS

HE WANDERS INTO ALL THAT SPACE

THAT GOES BETWEEN THE HUMAN RACE

FOR HE MAY SEEM TO BE RIGHT HERE

BUT TO NO MOMENT WILL HE ADHERE

HE TRAVELS ON BUT NOT THROUGH NEED

FOR NOT ONE MAN TO HIM WILL HEED

HIS SPIRITS FREE TO ROAM ALONE

BETWEEN THE GAPS IN NATURE THRONE

THE QUANTUM OF HIS BEING LIES

BEYOND THE SIGHT OF HUMAN EYES

SO THERE BEHIND THE ANGELS FAIR

UPON A STAND OF SWEET THIN AIR

HE STOPS TO GATHER ALL HIS THOUGHTS

OF MANY THE THINGS THAT HE’S BEEN TAUGHT

WHILE DANCING IN THE VOID

Sinkholes, Simple Things & Station Platform 04.03.2026.

The earth is making sinkholes To fill in all the gaps Then she flushes them with water So they will not collapse For her shell is now like acne Pocked and full of holes For beneath her hidden surface There’s tales that go untold For sand is ever shifting And ploughing...

    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
