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.

Natures Music & No Time No Place

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 shame

But I can hear her rhythm

as through my ears she plays

Absorbing me in wonder

with her melody so bright

Such everlasting music

to me that seems just right.

Thought To Ponder – “If one way be better than other, that , you may be sure, is nature’s way – that – Aristotle

NO TIME NO PLACE

IT’S ALL A STATE OF BALANCE

BETWEEN THE THEN AND NOW

FOR TIME IT HAS NO CONCEPTS

OF HOWS OR WHERES OR WHEN

IT’S JUST A SILLY MEASURE

THAT WE’VE PUT INTO PLACE

SO WE CAN TRACE OUR MOMENTS

BEFORE THEY ARE ERASED

WE SPEAK AS IF WE’RE CLEVER

AT ALL THAT WE PERCEIVE

BUT ITS MORE ABOUT THE NOTHING

INBETWEEN THE THINGS WE LEAVE

WE SIMPLY CALL IT BLACKNESS

AS IF IT WHERE NOT THERE

FOR THERE IS ONLY LIGHT

AS FAR AS WE’RE AWARE,

THE MATHS IS QUITE BEYOND US

BUT ONE DAY WE WILL SEE

THE PAST,TODAY,TOMORROW

ALL RESIDE IN THEE

    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
