you rock my world
you are with me
when I weep
you hold me tight
in my sleep
when I tremble
you are the closest
to my skin
at moments of sorrow
your strength I borrow
you go into the depth
of the self talk…
proud of you

MIDNIGHT POETRY – ‘The Process’
wordpad
the best
friend
finger tips
kiss the keys
ever so gently
pause
awaiting
sense of calm
expectation
brings
fidgeting
questions
arising
inside
time to
write
continuously
letters pouring
seemingly
unrelated
on the screen
silently
suddenly
poem
birthed
alive
the dna
of chaos
unwound
words
leap forward
into space
transformation
happens
unexpectedly
mind
of a poet
unleashed

MIDDAY POETRY – ‘Still’
crushing down waves
pouring skies
cut the ties
with the world around
time to reflect
to be with oneself
nowhere else
but inside
busyness stopped
all is calm
silence around
apart from the rain
what do we need
what do we really
crave to do and be
other than that
an opportunity
to go within
to slow down
to be in joy
still…
alive

MIDDAY POETRY – ‘Indigestible News’
staring at the news
bleak prospect
ongoing installing
of fear
how much anxiety
can one tolerate
before crushing
down
time to break
the cycle
of trusting
the narrative
our anniversary
deserved better
celebration than
injecting bad news
weather outside
still quite placid
so we took off
for a swim
alone on the road
quiet atmosphere
the dam was silent
only us submerged
dinner in an open
vegan restaurant
supporting the
brave hearts
food to live for
so we ordered
more then we
should
on the way home
sky with fluffy clouds
sun setting fast
on the horizon
home again
time to digest
beware of swallowing
more of the
same news
