Where Did It Go?

Posted on December 12, 2019 by a foolhardy florilegium

I still can glimpse the heady days when we lived by sweet Gaia’s ways; we danced and sang and knew the truth that comes before the loss of youth. We saw the path, defined it clear; that future that we … Continue reading →

Peace

Posted on December 7, 2019 by a foolhardy florilegium

Lest I find the peace within or mayhaps the peace without, I’ll never know just why I’m here or what it’s all about. Deep within my resonance and deep within my heart I need to feel the rhythm before I … Continue reading →

The Mountaintop

Posted on December 7, 2019 by a foolhardy florilegium

When watching from that other place, do I even know my name? I watch on in silence as my mind plays yet another game. For I rarely find it silent and I rarely find it free; I rarely find this … Continue reading →

Awaken

Posted on December 4, 2019 by a foolhardy florilegium

“Awaken from your slumber!” she screamed into my mind; awaken from your slumber and see what you will find.” It seemed like an eternity since I had seen this land and the future that I now saw was not what … Continue reading →

Waltz with Matilda

Posted on November 28, 2019 by a foolhardy florilegium

As I waltz with Matilda through lanes never known I look past the seeds that I know my life’s sown. I look to the future somewhere deep in my past; a place where I know long shadows were cast. I … Continue reading →

Words

Posted on November 18, 2019 by a foolhardy florilegium

There’s words unspoken, songs unsung, laughter silenced, bells unrung. There’s lives unlived, laughter unpeeled, stories untold and untruths unsealed and through it all where is the gain in this world long gone insane? Perhaps if we were to speak the … Continue reading →

The Light

Posted on November 17, 2019 by a foolhardy florilegium

I watch it burning sometimes; that bright candle in the room. I watch the way she walks about; bright sunlight in life’s gloom. I know I don’t deserve her and I often wonder why she chose a grumpy man like … Continue reading →

Stay To The Path

Posted on November 12, 2019 by a foolhardy florilegium

The battle lines drawn will never be clear; the enemy afar will ever be near. To win will be loss, to lose will be more; there is no surrender in life’s final war. Can we stand fast when our hearts … Continue reading →

Words echoing in my mind

Posted on November 10, 2019 by a foolhardy florilegium

There’s words that come from who knows where, that fill my heart with love and care. I hear them echoed in my mind, their beauty is not clear defined but resonating deep within I cannot help but let them in … Continue reading →

Words from another place

Posted on November 10, 2019 by a foolhardy florilegium

There is a way, a winding way from deepest fear to light of day. There is no way, there is no path; it leads away from comfort’s hearth. It is so clear we cannot see the way that takes us … Continue reading →

My Gods

Posted on October 18, 2019 by a foolhardy florilegium

The Gods I face are mine alone; it’s from my acts that they have grown. I stand before them morn and night for Judgement in their precious sight. But though they may be Gods so real ‘tis with my own … Continue reading →

Surrender is victory

Posted on October 14, 2019 by a foolhardy florilegium

“Surrender is victory” I heard a voice say; “There can be no winner at the end of day”. I’d battled so long, I’d fought all the way, how could I resist the pull of the fray? I stood on the … Continue reading →

Specks of gold

Posted on October 14, 2019 by a foolhardy florilegium

So much was found but never learnt; delusions that I now know weren’t the reasons I saw vistas new where sights unseen so often grew. The wisdom passed by on my way; I wandered, blind throughout the day. Today, with … Continue reading →

Walking Wild

Posted on October 14, 2019 by a foolhardy florilegium

Walking wild beneath The Green so many worlds I now have seen. I’ve flown with Dragon run with trees; I’ve seen their peril, felt their ease. Within those worlds where I have walked and in the talking I have talked … Continue reading →
