Bliss

Bliss in deep green
Eucalyptus minted
Hint of honey
Fall in circles
Down to bed
With earths delight.

Helicopter
flower
Flies
The tender
Loops
Rotate
And trundle
Twirl and twist
And catch a breath
Of aching wind

Bliss in deep green
In the octave higher
Than description
In the layer
Deepest of heart
Whirling wanting
Whisper, roar and
Ready.


Bliss…

"The Ocean - It's Balloons"

"The Ocean- it's balloons"
Trillions of them
Silky, salty, smile a while
Tiny reminders, a mass collection
"The Oceans - it's balloons"
It's balloons made of bubbles
No elastic plastic
chokey jokey
caught in the game strictures.
It's a ball, a banquet
a carousal, carousing
celebration.
It's a cocktail of endless
bubbles on a soiree
of splurging life.
It's a spree for free
It's a party
It's a moveable feast
It's mendable
It's beautiful
It's everything you really are.

Diamond

Do you remember?
It wasn’t a perfect cut
Glimmer glamour shop fronted
Dazzler on the top shelf.
It wasn’t igneous rock
Sliced into the edges
Of Escalators
Or polished envy.
But it was a diamond.
It was all parallel
And perpendicular
And tangent to
A whole circle
That you can’t see
Put feels
Free.
Do you remember
opening one single
gift?
Do you remember four
Coloured triangles
Bright like day
In Summer
Bold like
That time on a boat
Where the ocean
Is everywhere for miles
And miles
And the water was navy blue with royal blue peaks and the clouds seemed to have almost found their way to the surface of the water?
Humble
Like that time
Tiny strands of the ocean gently sliced rays of salt across our cheeks.
The kite was hard to fly
At first…
Do you remember?
It didn’t really work
But it found us again
Like the sails of a tall ship
Shipping breath into colour
Into holding life
Into outstretched
Open
Flight.
