The Elders of the Human Race

Posted on June 25, 2019 by a foolhardy florilegium

At times I think it’s all in vain; I feel the chill – depressions rain. The soaking downpour of despair that says “There is no hope out there.” I see the world – a bloody shame; how could we do … Continue reading →

A revolution of our mind!

Posted on June 23, 2019 by a foolhardy florilegium

For 40 years I’ve heard the beat as people march along the street demanding freedom from the chains with little hope and fewer gains. We did our time, we stopped a war, the environment and so much more. But each … Continue reading →

On Plans

Posted on June 19, 2019 by a foolhardy florilegium

For many years I pondered just how life could have been if I’d been a bit smarter and the obstacles I’d seen. But through it all I blundered on not taking any trail; just wandering, no goal in sight – … Continue reading →

Wings

Posted on June 2, 2019 by a foolhardy florilegium

Where will we be, what will it bring? Tomorrow is an unknown thing. All a body can do is try to do their best and just get by. But also reach out to the stars, out past the moon and … Continue reading →

Stop and Feel

Posted on June 1, 2019 by a foolhardy florilegium

When hearts bind hard within our chest they never let our Spirits rest. They needs some peace so it can see that place where fear just cannot be; that place where Spirit’s fly on high and show us that we … Continue reading →

The Trail

Posted on May 30, 2019 by a foolhardy florilegium

If hearts are warm they face life’s storm and see the truth that is their youth for hearts don’t die if they can fly; they don’t get cold as we get old. They shine their light and know what’s right … Continue reading →

Inspiration

Posted on May 28, 2019 by a foolhardy florilegium

To find the wisdom that I seek I need someone both strong and meek; a person who can seek the whole while keeping sight of their own goal. A man or woman who can be an inspiration to you and … Continue reading →

My Soul

Posted on May 26, 2019 by a foolhardy florilegium

If I could look at my own Soul would it be nice and smooth and whole or would it be a tattered mess; a bruised and battered thing that’s less? Way back there when I was new did it get … Continue reading →

Where will you stand?

Posted on May 25, 2019 by a foolhardy florilegium

In defence of this planet our children do rise; in defence of the planet and against our lies. Will they stand strong, where we all did fall in this, their answer to Gaia’s last call. While we sing a dirge … Continue reading →

The Tear

Posted on May 25, 2019 by a foolhardy florilegium

At times I feel that I should cry to let my Spirit fly on high. But then, my inner ‘stifled man’ screams “That is not true manhoods plan!” and so, instead, I weep inside; my inner feelings then can hide. … Continue reading →

Set Me Free

Posted on May 22, 2019 by a foolhardy florilegium

Those things long past will never be; it is now time to set them free. To worry now ’bout what has been; like seeking pastures ever green is swimming against the flow of the way time does always go. The … Continue reading →

Fear

Posted on May 19, 2019 by a foolhardy florilegium

Yesterday was filled with fear; today the path’s is far more clear. The Wise are coming very soon; they will be our doom or boon. Three Owls circle at this time with wisdom we will find sublime. From a Crow … Continue reading →

Where I Would Rest

Posted on May 18, 2019 by a foolhardy florilegium

I’ve wandered down so many paths, some even into light; but mostly I’ve just staggered round in the darkest night. I know that there is sunshine and wisdom to be found and on the quest to find some this old … Continue reading →

Goodnight

Posted on May 16, 2019 by a foolhardy florilegium

And now, to you folk one and all, I think I hear my pillow call and so it’s time I’m off to bed; I feel I need to rest my head. It’s Winter time, the night is long and in … Continue reading →

Roles

Posted on May 16, 2019 by a foolhardy florilegium

It’s not the role of politics to say if we should live or die. It’s not the role of bureaucrats to pour pollution in the sky. It’s not the role of anyone to choose the future of my life; who … Continue reading →
