Viking Tranmere

In a long boat down the Mersey with his hand on his sword. Ingimund saw crane birds on the sandbanks. He’s blessed by the Lord. On this holy peninsula where faith breeds light and strength, We’ve a Viking spirit we keep the rest at arms length. With sword, axe, and spear Wirral Norsemen, will assembleContinue reading “Viking Tranmere”

The Fire

I have a peace now in my mind, though the fire still rages. A fire that burns his residue still. I’m commited to the aim, and the beast that rampages within. Life requires effort, let’s strive. I want what’s best for us. I’ve tasted the worst. The fire is ablaze, leaving nothing to the mercyContinue reading “The Fire”

At Times

I see that I’m lucky, to have a job. I know it is my honour, to call her my wife. I understand I’m blessed, they call me Daddy. It’s just at times I need to remind myself.

Hand In Hand

We negotiate the destination. Hand in hand on our journey. I see past the bounds of my knowledge as the blind man taps the curb. In this war of words, I’m engaged! Contend with me, let’s risk our trust. I may at times make you cry, but I will always love you.

Stand By Me

Times are hard when things have got no meaning I’ve found the key upon the floor, Maybe you an I will not believe in the things we find behind the door. – Noel Gallagher

She

She was dressed to impress. Unknowing I was watching she flicked her hair, as if to psych herself up. She entered the building tall. I wish her much luck.

Shadow Me

Shadow me please, my almighty Lord. Let me walk protected, like forever by my side a sword. No more watching over my shoulder. The Mother! I will behold her. Have only peaceful dreams in my sleep. Give up the hate, your love to keep.

Aye Ready

I found a pen in the darkness, where you left me. Words they found me beaming, when the soul cried out for meaning. It was not the violence, but the constant undermining. Through the cocooned gas and dust, a hand swept. I saw the stars. The same hand that broke the boom and saved theContinue reading “Aye Ready”

Black Hole

I awoke you with a kiss. You revealed to me myself and handed me my sword. I burnt through like the raging sun. You lit up the night like the harvest moon. Life began again with you. So take my hand and lets dance on the shoreline, in appreciation to the heavens. I love youContinue reading “Black Hole”

The Tree

So it begins and we start, though not one word to be uttered. Thoughts they pass by, leaving the heart fluttered. Soothing is the countryside, I’m locked on the tracer. A power to lift, the wee charm of nature. New beginnings blossom, daffodils soak up the sun. Her youth, her beauty, now a memory, ofContinue reading “The Tree”
