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
A Lifetime Journey P.O.M. November
A Lifetime Journey
I’ll sail upon an ocean
An ocean filled with dreams
And as I slowly drift
I’ll fish for all my schemes
The one’s that feed a Lifetime
On the journey I will take
From here until tomorrow
Without a single break
No memory of this time
Will clouds the days to come
And only when I’m finished
Will I see just what I’ve done
Some dreams will seem just perfect
While others they might fail
But that cannot be a reason
Why I just do not sail.
Bon Voyage……

A Not Forgotten Birthday & Unkind Words
A Not Forgotten Birthday
I remember your birthday
Because it sticks in my mind
But the date does not count now
I think you will find
For you dwell in the past now
In days that’s gone by
And they’ll never return
I’ll accept with a sigh
But it’s good I remembered
It’s good I recall
The pleasures we live through
No matter how small
That road that we travelled
Had many a stop
And somewhere back there
Is where you got off
So I’ll toast to your birthday
Not forgotten at all
As I think of our friendship
Which is sadly no more.

Thought To Ponder – The most beautiful thing in the world is freedom of Speech. – Diogenes (4127-323BC)
Unkind Words
I’m sure I never said that
Was that really me
Because when I think about it
I’m not filled with glee
Of course I was mistaken
To judge you in that way
I hope you will forgive me
And things are still OK
I jumped to the wrong conclusion
Without hearing all the facts
And now I think about it
It seems I’ve been so lax
Emotions led my thinking
And clouded up my mind
I hope you will forgive me
For being so unkind.

Forgetful & A Shamed Of My Past29.10.2026.
Forgetful... You seem so very forgetful But think that it’s ok And you only need remember What you are going to do today But that reply it holds no water It leaks just like a sieve And I know that sooner or later Things will have to give You are standing there before...
A Memory Of Love & Accepting Change 23.10.2026.
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...
Natures Music & No Time No Place 17.10.2026.
Natures Music Listen to the music that weaves between the leaves The constant sound of nature that sings each time she breathes Her lyrics are so playful full of rhythmic charm Encouraging a calmness that shreds away alarm Some are deaf to the music and that’s a real...

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
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
Thank you Phil for bringing memories forward and knowledge that everything and everyone is just a thought away !
Hi Phil,

Hi Tracy Sorry I didn’t reply sooner. I hope you and your lovely family are well. I only go into my website on a Wednesday as a rule to update it. The website has a good following and it’s nice that you enjoy my simple poems. x
