Song of AprilForget the night’s storm
when you get out of bed.
Forget lightning and thunder
the way the house trembled
Forget your deepest fears
that the world would end,
Open your eyes.
Embrace the kiss
of fresh air.
Revel in the sight
of the early sun.
Welcome the reflections
of drops on succulent grass—
o how a touch of rain
brings new life.

she will do as she pleases
concerning snow or gentle breezes
as for her mood no one can say
she's not as calm as her sister May...

PuddlesWhen it rains, I don't look for rainbows
Their endless curves have never appealed to me
Instead I look for the puddles
The puddles that remember every family that has danced there
Each person who has looked up and seen love for the first time as the droplets continue to make little rings on the surface
The colours across...

Clouds And Sun
One would not realize it by the scenery,
but indeed, at 7:39 the sun has risen.
The massive and dark rain clouds have
cast its shadows over the horizon.
There's a mobility about the clouds
that is awesome, and I never cease
to be drawn by the sight of them.
From my vanish point, a great light
shines below the mass of clouds...

Rainy DaysEveryone hates Rainy days
They’re so cold and grey
So why do they bring me peace?
How does it put my mind at ease?
The Storm matches my chaotic mind
Slowing things down so that I can unwind
The Rain washes out my pain
And the darkness neutralizes my brain
The weather aids my temper
It tames the raging fire
Cooling the blazing embers
Causing my...

Give It To The RainGive it to the rain,
all of your hurt and your pain.
Watch as it belittles under a clap of thunder,
all of your hurt, disdained.
Scream it to the sky,
make it heard.
Let him know how much it hurt when you went through his phone.
His promises, like fallen leaves, scattered by the wind.
Look to the sea, give it...

Warm WeatherWarm weather
welcomes wistful desires
into open arms
to shape and transform
into frangible reality…
Rise above noxious feedback,
naysayer noise is static.
Take constructive
criticism and create a buzz…
Warm weather
welcomes a hang- tough heart
into open arms
to stand up again
never become quiescent...
Rise above noxious feedback
naysayer noise is violet
change frequencies
turn to aquamarine ...
Rise above it...

Clouds Talking To Me"Pretty clouds filled with water, then it rains down." By Poet
I love to sit and watch the clouds,
as they dance across the big blue sky.
If I watch and wait what will I see,
animals like a zoo walking by.
One day I ask a big bright white cloud,
where are you going?
I was shocked when it answered back,
off...

On This Kind of DayThe weatherman says it will be 85
But it now feels like 72.
So what should I wear? Out the window I glance,
Thinking people will give me a clue.
Yet from what I can see, it’s a very mixed bag –
There are t-shirts and sandals and shorts,
Though I also see long-sleeves and jackets and jeans,
Which all go with...

Goodbye Winter Welcome Spring"We must say, goodbye to winter but do not be sad. It will come back again next year with a big smile and plenty of snow. Now we welcome Spring to enjoy." By Poet
Winter can be very cold,
the wind will sing and be very bold.
The ground is covered with fluffy snow,
to play in as the...

Royal National Lifeboat Institution“With courage nothing is impossible” Sir William Hillary, a retired soldier and founder of the RLNI
A trawler's in distress at sea
It’s sinking, the crew cannot flee
A mayday message reads “Rescue me”
Their lives are at risk, as you can see
Brave lifeboat men will never tire
From aiding ships, some on fire
To save those at sea they do...

The Whisper through the WindThe whisper through the Wind
The wind whispers a cry, a howl of sadness
the wind whispers a song, a howl of gladness
the wind whispers a message for you and me
the wind whispers and we here but can not see
At night and in the light the wind whispers
Over the mountain and in the canyon the wind whispers
The...

The Weather Of My Emotions
In the ebb and flow of feelings that is the cycle of my life
I seem to be caught in the spring of my emotions
while winter stalls refusing to take its leave.
Like a bad virus insisting to overstay its welcome
tenacious snow lingers under unrelenting skies of grey
while nippy winds bring rebel clouds and showers.
Entangled in...

Rainv2
Hiding, riding in clouds
You come down from Heaven
Kissing leaves and flowers, filling streams
Sometimes merciless…pouring
Other times gentle…misting
Sporadically invited, frequently intruding
Persistently presumptuous
You can be cool or warm
Soft or hard
You may clean our wrath
Soothe our soul
Quench our thirst
Whether you come in showers or seasons
Leaving puddles of sorrow or pools of joy
One thing is consistent, absolute…
You are always falling…...
