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

Change Always Happens P.O.M July

A quiet place to think

Change always happens

That’s how it’s meant to be

For the spirit of a person

Seeks always to be free

To follow every pathway

To dance across the sky

This happens when we’re sleeping

And here is the reason why

The body moves so slowly

Each moment were awake

It reduces all adventures

That we are allowed to take

Then when it take’s a rest break

And falls so fast asleep

The energy within it

Creeps out into the deep

To wander amongst the cosmos

And dance around the stars

In search of new tomorrows

It hopes one day are ours

Then at the time of waking

It drops back into place

And there upon our memory

It does not leave a trace.

Musical Dance & Is Motion Just Time

MUSICAL DANCE

CAUGHT IN THE RHYTHM

MOVED BY THE SPELL

MUSIC FROM HEAVEN

WE ALL KNOW SO WELL

LYRICS ADVANCING

ONTO THE FLOOR

EVERYONE PRANCING

BEGGING FOR MORE

CAUGHT IN THE MAGIC

HELD IN ITS SPELL

SWAYING TO TEMPOS

WE ALL KNOW WELL

LOST IN THE MOMENT

EMBRACED BY THE DANCE

GIVING TO OUR ONENESS

A MUSICAL CHANCE

AND LIVING OUT OUR DREAMS

Thought To Ponder – Until you try, you don’t know what you can’t do – Henry James 

Is motion just time

Without measure or rhythm

Or is it a fix thought in space

For who is to say

It was not always that way

For science is merely a guess

And to those in the know

What have you to show

That you’ve grasped the meaning of time

For if motion stood still

There would be no time to kill

And this world would be just a thought.

Music on You Tube – Ella Langley – Choosin Texas

Object In The Sky & Stillness

Object In The Sky As the clouds slowly burn Revealing the sky There is something that’s moving In the open blue dye It glistens and arch Moving left to right Oh what could it be This thing that’s in sight Too big for a bird Too quiet for a plane But it draws my eyes...

    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
