Clouds

Looking down from the plane
Islands if clouds drift 9ver islands of land
Ripples in clouds above ripples st sea
And you realise how vast and repeated all things are
So we live as oghers have before us
Genghis khan Alexander the great cleoptra caeser and all the tiny insignificant people around them

Islands if clouds peopled with tiny beings
Friends only for as long as the winds let them.  Flying over in wisps of clouds  fickle by the minute some days

Hoya poya and the sea dragon

So aishu ashwin and I created this story together.  Very devised theater style. 
Here it is:

One day the brave captain hoya was sailing the great deep ocean.  She had just finished her daring adventures in the southern oceans and was now sailing further south
. Her brother poya wanted to go along with her but she said "no brother. I must venture alone" so the brother donned his invisibility cloak and his in the boat with hoya.

Super Moon

As we lie snug in our beds in highrise flats ...awash in moonlight
Waters lap the shores
Waters rise and fall upon the shores
Waters tower and crash onto shores pulling out trees cows houses TV sets babies driftwood clothes mothers fathers children dogs
And we awake wondering at the craters in the moon

Farewell

Though everyone we leave a place
We feel want to come back
It's best to know
That we may not

And so
Let me say farewell now
River Avon and your swans and fees and feisty ducks
I will think of you
Like wordsworth his daffodils
With my hand on my heart.. adieu adieu

This world

This world is made
For peace,  love and beauty

Let's live it so
Let's live it so

Nature is full of diversity
Colours abound and flourish beside one another .the old and knarled stand strong beside the fresh and new
And the world smiles

Poetry

Poetry
For all the beauty in this world
For all the sorrow
All of thought and being .there is poetry

I sit here

I sit here
In the garden
Under an umbrella
At peace

Raindrops on my head
Poetry in my heart
Nature in my eyes
God in my being

Beauty

This trip is a meditation on beauty

Moments ... gone that moment so precious for never ever being exactly the same again

The greens under a thin sheet of cloud

A swan running on water ... running from fast paddling swam or running to the promise of food?

A feather floating on water
Shed carelessly by you .so downy white
You don't miss that single feather
That I gaze on so wistfully
You spare it not another glance

What you have in abundance you don't miss
You don't know what beauty you lend this river
Just swimming by
That feather proof you floated by once

And what do you seek
As you paddle by so quickly
Staring purposefully into the water as you shovel water behind you
Leaving a triangular shape in your wake
That water quickly folds over

Lights

Little lights twinkling in the distance
And suddenly they are bearing down upon you

Hades

No one believe me when I say
She wanted me
She wanted out of all that endless sunshine and butterflies and flowers
There's a limit she cried .she saw me my dark cape my dark hair and
She looked at me
Those eyes smouldering in her sunny face
I warned her ..to come with mem

she seduced me

Persephone

I was not kidnapped
I walked up to hades  and seduced him
Who can resist spring when she visits
When she tempts you to take a bite of that first apple
He was coming there every day
And I saw him his rippling muscles

Baby butterfly

Once upon a time there was a little baby butterfly living in a yellow flower.

Mummy butterfly was in a pink flower collecting nectar

Baby butterfly wanted to join mummy  butterfly  but Could not fly to her because her wings were too small

She started to cry weh weh weh

Along flew a big green butterfly
"Why you crying baby butterfly?"

"I want to go to my mummy! But I'm too little"

" oh don't cry about that! Jump on my back I'll fly you to your mummy!"

So the baby butterfly hopped onto the broad back of the green butterfly.
And the butterfly flapped it's wings and started to fly towards the pink flowers

As they were nearing though a strong guys if wind blew
And baby butterfly fell off.
She was falling and falling and falling ....
When gasp! Someone caught her and baby felt something soft holding her
It was the mother butterfly!

"I saw you flying towards me and then I saw you fall and I flew to catch you!

Baby butterfly and mummy butterfly hugged each other closely and lived happily ever after among the yellow nectar filled flowers

Things to write about
