SailorWe journeyed then as whim behooved,
Our lives were eddies, wind and play;

As softly lapping...

Rather Should the Winter Never EndRather should the winter never end,
If I should meet the spring without thy hand.
The seasons our souls do summers send,
And all do fall upon our hearts’ command.

The SeasonsWind of creation and wind of the dawn,
All thou caress is soon withered and gone.
Born of the elements, battered and bare,
All that is common, so briefly, made rare!
Weaver of rhythms, sweet shimmering spring,
Ruled by a...

A day trip to Philip Island19.01.2025
An amazing day trip to Phillip Island.
Glad it turned out to be a beautiful day.
The weather was fine, so as the blue sky.
The low tides and the wind,
Together they made gentle waves.
Perfect for swimming...

Thinking Of A Divine SpringThroughout the coldest days of the mighty winter
Think of a sweet spring and dream of a mild summer
During the harshest hours of the wintry night
Think of flowers and dream of a pleasant sunlight.

purple noon12 pm, now after noon
the beach will overflow soon
glow of the sun spins around the world
boys enjoy watching bikini clad girls...
the sun
the sand
pretty girls
getting tan
the waves
music plays
almost naked bodies
sway
smiles and looks
hearts getting hooked
wear shades...

And I'm...

Summer RainListen to the raging summer rain
Mercilessly battering the ground -
Drops bouncing like crickets all around.
What heights its descent has drained
Into the pools when it came unbound!
My head is made silent by the sound
And a sense...

A Bit Cold Outside
I know winter is breathtaking to behold.
with all the divine frosted snow filigree:
meadows in a blanket pristine white and cold,
usually, I would be walking with glee;
to relish each winter scene that will unfold.
But, today...

Time PreferencesA Solar trims the Earth's waistline,
while Polars bare all the segments,
Springing up those northern steppes leans sublime,
the Vernal Equinox presents,
then, on March 20th, it will shine.
The southern Pole leans the same way,
as the September Equinox...

Indian SummerAll through December the days were warm
creeping into the high sixties
Grass was green and roses blooming
Nights gave warning with cold
below freezing soon after the sun sets
But the days made for walks
and lawn chair visiting with...
