(For My Sons) My boys, my three lions of England,let the lion of Judah roar in your hearts.As a lad I was lonely, No control, no power,too many false starts.I could only look to the stars when they camefor blood.The piece missing in my heart, brotherhood.Lads, this world is beautiful with its signs, symbols andContinue reading “Brotherhood”

I See The Blue Sky
Winter plotted hard against us, like it did many outdoorsmen before.But I now see the sun and the blue sky,coming in with the seagulls to shore.So again we risk our sanity, in hope we reap what we sow.Though it’s the love that keeps us going,and this is all I know!
The Angels Do Too
The depths of the ocean made many ship a slave. But I’ll rise to the surface, and die with you upon a wave Did the prophets see those bloody sheets? Do they know the meaning in our pains?They take you in one week.But you’ll burn forever threw my veins.Like when they tarmaced those cobbled stones.WhereContinue reading “The Angels Do Too”
At the Cybeles Fountain
I take in all we have assembled, as we stand here hand in hand, once again. I take heart, for the next sexenial, plenty of ink still in my pen. In the splash of fountain water the lions raw for you to now bloom. Grasp the pearl, you have been the bride I’m always yourContinue reading “At the Cybeles Fountain”
Thirteen Moons
I write of our dreams while I’m dreaming of writing. In the thirteen moons, there is a treasure. From the whispers of this city, the poets live forever. And for everyone who asks receives, now the lovers lie-a-teepee. To the sounds of harps, God’s gift ran free. And there our love came to be…
Is There Really Now No You and Me
The sun burst from the river flowing, not love that caught my eye. The days I cursed somehow inside did treasure, Our love that made me cry. I need you here, why are you there? How can you not care? Enable this void while I walk a highway of troubled souls. Bring the light ofContinue reading “Is There Really Now No You and Me”
Alone
Where we went he was never too far behind. Lurking in the shadows, attacking in the night. I cannot drink the blood of snakes and survive. Only you, can search your own soul. In his pain Cain was rejected, I could never reject you. Then he killed his own ideal, killing everything. I want moreContinue reading “Alone”
Seville
A miracle splashed from out the blue sea. Dabbed dry with grattitude, as a melody played, beautifully. Seville now 180 minutes away. Smudge, I now know we can fly. I didn’t have dreams when I was young. It makes me won’t to cry. Through all the suffering and pain. It’s hard not to think likeContinue reading “Seville”
We Felt The Rain
When darkness faced the deep, we felt the rain. Your heartache wiped my tears. Introduced through our pain. I put my faith in that smile, unsure of what was to come. But God watched on. I saw His throne inside the sun. Their vision blurred with lies. Though not our eyes. Our eyes will seeContinue reading “We Felt The Rain”
Ratta-tat-tat
I know you want this! I want this too. Lets do it together. Me and you. ‘Knock and the door will be opened’ Let’s ratta-tat-tat together. Like our minds remain unopened. He surley won’t keep this from us. He knows are inmost hearts are true. Let’s roll up our sleeves and do this together. MeContinue reading “Ratta-tat-tat”
