A note to my dad....

Here's to the music dad.
To the music and the joy and the love you gave me.
I dedicate this journey to you.

Nature’s Enchanted Garden

Blow dandelions seeds
Up to the sky
And watch with awe
As time floats by

Pick wild daisies,
Make a chain
Smell the sweet grass
After rain

Shine buttercups
Upon your skin
A yellow haze
Glows on your chin

In deep forests
Bluebells rise
A blaze of colour
Fills your eyes

Through wild meadows
Poppies dance
Their striking scarlet
Will entrance

Enchantment here
For all to find
Let Natures garden
Heal your mind

FADING DREAMS

I slip through darkness
Bare my soul
Scattered dreams
Growing old

Grasp at life
With flowing word
Every movement
Can be heard

Kill a song
With bitter tongue
My dream has died
My song is sung.

ANGELS AND DEMONS

Scattered lies,
Bloodshot eyes,
Demons that we fight inside.

Nightmare dreams
Bitter scenes
Only they can hear my screams

Leave me be,
Don’t torture me
I cannot help what I foresee

Michael fight,
With sword of light
Cast those demons out tonight

LITTLE ROBIN REDBREAST

Oh little robin redbreast
Dancing on the ground
Sing to me of springtime
When new life will be found

Oh little robin redbreast
Sit upon my palm
And sing to me of summer days
When all is still and calm

Oh little robin redbreast
Sitting on the wire
Sing to me of Autumn time
When colours are on fire

Oh little robin redbreast
Sitting in the tree
Sing to me of Winter time
Survivors you and me

Oh little robin redbreast
Sitting here together
We’ve faced our own mortality
And here we sit forever.

Destiny

Searing heat and sweaty palms
I’m melting into nature’s arms
The blazing sun, the dusty earth,
The constant cycle of rebirth

The Godhead watches over all
But will life catch me if I fall?

The darkest night, a star shines bright
The moon she throws a beam of light
An owl she cries across the skies..
“A warrior’s about to rise”

As nightfall turns to morning
A brand new day is dawning

Morning dew and misty light
Removes the darkness from our sight
And clarity this brand new day
A fresh beginning on its way

I believe in destiny
Does destiny believe in me?

NATURE’S SOUL

With panther eyes I focus in
On what’s in front of me
One pure goal,
One pure aim
To set my spirit free

Entranced and wholly mystified
At how it came to be
That Nature’s soul
Has walked right in
And taken over me

For six years now I’ve toiled the earth
With mud all over me
But nature’s soul
Has seen to it
That my soul will be free

Through bitter cold of winter time
A robin’s been with me
He sings his song
With haunting tones
A touching melody

The springtime bursts with all new growth
And my heart sings to me
The driving force
Of all new life
A rebirth there will be

The summer days bring scorching sun
And proud the earth will be
Of all her work
A patchwork quilt
Laid out in front of me

The autumn time sees slowing down
With beauty she will be
Blowing leaves
Of coloured light
And mesmerising me

A part of mother nature’s soul
Is what I’ve come to be
Standing here
On her sweet earth
She lives inside of me

And now I’ve come to realise
To set my spirit free
All I need
To spread my wings
Is here for you to see.
