If My Love…

love

This poem is for my beautiful wife, Anita-Clare, the love of my life. How fortunate we were to find each other.

If my love were like an ocean,
It would come in but never retreat.
I would show you my constant devotion,
By laying it here, at your feet.

If my love were like a mountain,
It would be a peak I longed to climb,
It would bathe you like a fountain,
And stand the test of time.

If my love were like a river, long,
It would flow joyfully from its source,
It would be, like a melody or song,
Full of vigour, life and force.

If my love were like a giant oak,
It would spread its branches wide,
To shelter you and to invoke
A safe haven in which to reside.

If my love were like a garden,
You’d know it’s where you belong,
It would be your own sweet Arden,
Filled with music, laughter, song.

winter

We are battened down against the snow,
But we keep our lights burning,
Against the glare,
To welcome all those who come to our door.

butterfly, nature

A flower
And a butterfly
Startling colour
Still life
Yet poetry in motion
Nature
In perfect counterbalance

The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2014 annual report for this blog.

Here’s an excerpt:

The concert hall at the Sydney Opera House holds 2,700 people. This blog was viewed about 14,000 times in 2014. If it were a concert at Sydney Opera House, it would take about 5 sold-out performances for that many people to see it.

winter

It has snowed overnight
All through the night
The world this morning
Is white
With a touch of colour
And the trees
The branches
Are heavy with the weight of it
Fat with its depth

An Eye

It is just an eye
But it fascinates me
How the gentle mushroom
Is striated with gold
And how so much
Emotion
Can be conveyed
In just one look
But what enthrals me
Even more
Is that this eye
Was drawn with crayon
By one skilful hand

Crayon drawing by Jose Vergara, aged 19

The world outside
Is full of storm
The wind chases
Clouds across the sky
I have no desire
To be outside
On a day such as this
So I am sitting
Just observing
And I am cosy and warm

Last Leaves

The last leaves
Cling tenaciously
To their tree
And if I tilt my head back
And look up to
A dense, foggy sky
I see a few random branches
Where the leaves
Cling for dear life too

Mexican Greeting

25 Thursday Dec 2014

Synonymous with Christmas,
A big hug of a greeting
From the Aztecs and Mexico,
In the colours of the season,
Red and green,
A poinsettia,
Or Christmas Eve Star.

Sunrise

Sunrise
The leaves are almost
Translucent
With the sun burning
Bursting, through them
The air is full of promise
For a brand new
New Hampshire day
