CAMELOT FANTASIES

graceful tumble
soul dying
spiralling thru clouds
words u spoke
arrows strike deep
promises u made
my world turned
upside down

=======

A circle of silence
In a tomb of ice
We stood and faced our fate
Calm descended
'Twas only us
But the storm raged without

=======

Creeping
Blinking
From Winter's icy grip
Bashful Spring steps forth
Vigour refreshed
Daring shoots stretching
Towards the sun

=======

As a fleece warm about my shoulders
Your words enfold
They settle
They comfort from afar
Who needs chicken soup
For there you are

=======

gates of iron
sentinel guards
treasure unknown within
what do they hide?
what do they protect?
to stand the test of time

=======

A skylight lifting
Sweet warmth enfolding
Renewed vigour
Restored to life
Ghostly footprints
Along the sand

=======

Fleeting glimpse
Yet so profound
My heart you captured
Without a word
Loving well
Neverending
Ever growing
With me through the years

=======

A cup
angled jauntily
anointing lips
and tongue
with precious liquor
sweet and dark
words like bubbles
rising

=======

Aged soul
Weary of searching
A refreshed heart
Tear washed of sin
Land of your fathers
An eternal home
Anchor to the man

======

When did I become
The person I see in the mirror?
Was it when you took my hand?
Or when you let it fall?

======

Such words are music
zephyr's lilt
stirring the refrain of peace
into earth's sweet smell
with salty tang
from distant sea

The fountain of hope
Which lives within
Returns to life
Renewed
Refreshed
Layers of pain
Flayed
Stripped
Falling to dust

=======
