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

Old Father Time, A Box Of Treasures & Silent Suicide

 

Here are three very different poems to peruse

Ask me a question for I will not lie
I know everything he said with a sigh
Why’s water wet and continually flows
That’s an easy question if your in the know
Why winds move around and never stand still
I’ll tell you reason if you’ve time to kill
And what of the day that turns into night
For I can tell you just where went all the light
But alas you’ve no moments to take this repast
But my offer still stand for the answers are cast
So ask me a question and I will not lie
For I know all things and that’s why I sigh
As I watch the same mistakes….

A Box of Treasures

I have a box of treasures
To which I hold the key
And when I lift the lid
I don’t know what I’ll see
Sometimes there will be sparkle
With jewels so clear and bright
And other times just laughter
To make my world feel right
My treasures sometimes teach me
To do the best I can
To help the world around me
And play to natures plan
But if I delve more deeply
It’s then I know I’ll see
All that’s gone before me
Just waiting there for me
But that is in my future
And not the here and now
As I pull out another treasure
For the day I know is now

Silent Suicide

He drifts along as if he does not care
But whose to say what goes on in there
He smiles and jokes for all the day
While all the time his minds astray
How would we know how could we tell
Within his soul all’s not to well
Until the joy of him is gone away
To rest in Angels arms

    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
