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

Adoration P.O.M. for May

Adoration

I sit in adoration

Of all the things you are

Sometimes you’re just a thought in mind

Perhaps a falling star

Where once you were the coming dawn

That came from out of night

You change into the morning sun

With rays so clear and bright

Then onto early afternoon

To warm the coldest heart

The things that you can manage

I know not where to start

For you really are so special

A thing of pure delight

Then you disappear so quickly

Into the coming night

People Dream & Boxes

People Dream

People dream of weekends

And disregard the rest

Ignoring all the warnings

That say right now is best

They seem to think those two days

Hold some magic charm

Instead of placing more thought

In each moment that is ours

Every second is a blessing

As time it rolls on by

So to live just for the weekends

It makes me want to sigh

Life is made for living

No matter what the day

So make the best of your time

And whatever comes your way.

Thought To Ponder – The great essentials to happiness in this life are something to do, something to love and something to hope for. – Joseph Addison

Boxes

We all live in boxes

and that’s no surprise

But each time we move

their girth seems to rise

Our needs are no greater

but we thrive to take space

Bigger and bigger

as if in a race

Even though our contentment

refuses to glow

I think I should mention

something we all know

That no matter how lofty

our box grows in size

It still will not make us

in anyway wise

For its just our folly

to chase a false dream

A moment in madness

within life’s regime

As we rush toward our end

    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
