Physical Experience

Physical Experience

He laid me down in a sunset
And every candle nearby was lit
It was like looking down on a city at night
Perfect and bright

He laid me down on a four poster bed
Slowly,tenderly,his hands all over,he said
We are two halves of a butterfly,
Without each other we will die

He took me to the ocean to wash our feet
He took me under the pier to kiss,
There was a heat
He used his tongue and I closed my eyes
I smiled and took a look of the stars in the sky

He opened a book of poetry and
Started a campfire
We shared 'the same fire'
A magic was created
Like doves in a picture painted

He took me to a restaurant
And ordered me some good wine
Listened to my stories,my fantasies
His face was so kind

He smelled my perfume,paid for a room
Opened the curtains,revealing the moon
And the flowers in full bloom
He took me for ice cream
There were 100 flavors,it was a dream

We sat up in bed and talked all night
Till the birds were singing and the stars were not in sight
We took a bath together and the bubbles lived forever

I think if he ever left me
The stars would be out of light
If I left him,he would be without love
And without a wife!

I feel like the flower of the town
Whenever he holds me,and twirls me around

Let's make heaven

Meet me under the fairy lights
Find a unicorn and be my knight
Meet me by the waterfall
Make me feel pretty like a porcelain doll

Play me a song on the piano
Seduce me with words in my earlobe
Take me dancing,glancing
Draw me a picture and be my angel strawberry picker

A slow touch
Obsessive look
His eyes brows looked like dolphins
Jumping out of the sea

His hands played all of my keys
I wonder if the stars can see our
Hearts beating and
Reaching for arcs

Lord

Clouds cannot cover up your love
Clouds can form into hundreds of doves
The rain pours as if from a jug
But there is always a rainbow when you look up

Idea for children's book

'All of a sudden
All of the stars turned into cars'

Ship of Magic

Ship of Magic

The crowd watching the waving
Didn't know the passengers would need saving

A magic dolphin jumped into her hair
All the boy could do was sit and stare

The Diary of a Nobody

Are you nobody if you have a heart?
Are you a nobody if your child draws you in art?
Are you nobody if you haven't written a word?
Are you nobody if you chose truth and make it heard?

I am Nobody

I woke up early with so many things to do
I washed the pots and hung out the clothes
But there were birds too

I made breakfast and popped to the shops for milk
but when I got back I made tea
And got back under the quilt

I woke up to a rose on my pillow
And I began to cry
I looked up to the window and
Saw a heart in the sky

I tided the house and wondered about that mouse
I hovered,mopped,polished the TV
And found a fiver under the couch

I took my children to school
And held their hands all the way
I told them to be brave and smile
God listens everyday

I went shopping,it was raining really hard
But I was looking for a get well card

I worked at a charity shop and watched
People looking for,sieving for gold
Children came in looking for teddies to hold

I went to the park and bought the kids an ice cream
They were so happy the day was a dream

We went to the cinema and watched a Disney film
We felt like little working ants carrying a popcorn meal
Eyes bright and excited

I bought a lottery ticket and watched the TV
I didn't win the jackpot but
Those three numbers bought a treat tea

Tomorrow I will go to the market and buy some fresh fish
Life is not champagne and caviar
Life is a kiss

I love you too

I've been waiting and fainting for you
I need you to say I love you too

I've been crying and sighing for you
I need you to say I love you too

I've been dreaming and gleaming for you
I need you to say I love you too

I've been breaking and aching for you
I need you to say I love you too

I've been flying and pearl diving for you
I need you to say I love you too

I've been mountain hiking and fighting for you
I need you you to say I love you too

I've been singing and dancing and piano playing for you
I need you to say I love you too

I've dreamed of kissing and risking it all for you
I need you to say I love you too

I need you to say I love you too

I love baking and making heaven with you
Can't you say I love you too?

I've been sailing and emailing you
I need you to say I love you too

It's Valentines day and I'm worshiping you
Just say I love you

Bless the frozen

Bless the frozen

Bless them in the cold

Bless them young

The kind rain helping the water pumps flow

The kind rain helping a flower show

The kind sun shining on her wedding day

The kind sun coming out on holiday

Beautiful poem

Waking up like a daisy

The warm sun coming through

Its great to have the energy

When the sky turns blue

Walking on the cool grass

Feeling the evening breeze

Watching butterflies flying over

Paddling in the sea

Away

A chocolate on my pillow

A message in the mirror

A single red rose lying on the doorstep

Eternal Mountains

We look up like flowers

End of the dream?

You must keep dreaming

I hear the post box

Is it a heartening letter?

Is it a parcel you ordered?

Or a postcard from sunny weather?

In the Zone Poem

Extended metaphor

The Wind a pouncing snake

Biting you in the cold

Pushing you back

A fight of the world

Heavily twining and untwining in the grass

Having everything in its clasp

Ripping silky flowers apart

Petals that once covered your heart

Treetops ready to fly

Dripping with venom

Crawling up high

The Wind has a snake song

Waking you up with its lizard tongue

Pouncing and pouncing

Like you are its prey

Thank god we are inside staying out of its way!

The snake that makes you go downhill

You wear hats and scarves for the chill

It’s muscles can compress your neck

So before you go outside,you need to check

I can hear it outside lying in bed

It’s my safe place

If the wind came through my front door

It would not get a taste

Lightly connected

Be a prayer

Personifys Love

Personify’s Love

My mum personify’s love

Every meal she makes is perfect grub

Every pot she wash’s in fairy liquid suds

Every time she cleans and hovers the house

It looks sooo good!

I really should help me mum

Tidy my room and hover the crumbs

I really should give her flowers

For sitting with me and making towers

For every home made birthday cake

For being my best mate

I truly thank you mum

When I am sick you make me feel better like magic

When I am cold and tired, you turn on the fire

You personify love

Like the water and sunshine above

The mix of New Yorkers

Running down the escalators

Computers and dreams

Modal streams

Up the charm

At the window sunset

‘I’m riding up a mountain

On my horse called Fountain’-Nia Perks

Idea

Function on till that let’s you save a sale

Are pen friends in the past?

Writing love letters stamped with wax?

Are we reading kindles instead of books?

Are we more concerned about our looks?

Photographs and selfies on face book?

Why have a conversation in the pub

When you can text,email or live

Message your best bud?

Don’t worry,I have relatives in Australia,

I love seeing their photographs and stories but,

You can get bullied on the web,stalked on the web,

Lead on by pseudo,gangs  or evil cults

We trust the internet with our bank details,personal details

Music,writing,art,fashion blogs.Businesses are growing

And we have friends all over the world

We can actually dream like we did as boys and girls

I think ‘the written word’ and ‘the machine’ can co exist,

But please don’t take our libraries

Knowledge is beautiful

Where ever we find it

Drinking and drowning tomorrow

I really think I could be put in

One of those isolated rooms

I eat and I eat but there’s no taste in food

I try to remember something, anything I should

I feel like I’m holding on to a piece of wood

Please God ,my whole body hurts

My whole body throbs,

Did my heart stop?

Day to day I can’t remember,no details,no flickers

Just blank paper

I need ‘me’ back

I need the binging to stop

I need to dazzle in those interviews

And get a fucking job

I pray for strength,

Please make me strong

I pray for truth and love and songs

The smell of books

The excitement

Like music,not a metronome

The Lake Scene

Flight paths like rainbows reflecting

Courage to lose weight

Weight feels like a tragedy

A date with losing weight

Saved baby teeth in a little bag

Candy coloured sky

The flirting game

In the picture

Idea Joke

Children beeping everything with handheld at Tesco!

Gadgets still unused

My mind is still blank

Sitting at the piano

Whisper to me keys

Curve and charm

I am sat at a piano

Looking up at a rainbow

Laughing at a chat show

Being lead to the dance floor

Hearts and singing larks

I have woken up to Valentines

I imagine a strawberry rose

Put it to my nose

Breakfast in bed

The petals are luscious and red

Fairy lights on the wall

Filling up my heart and soul

He gives me choc’ s and he

Can always find my spot

My heart is a floating balloon

Rainbow flowers fill the room

The tide and its tears

For thousands of years

I have loved the tide

And its tears

I have loved the stars

By which the boat steers

I have loved the sunset

And when the sky clears

Secretly

Secretly

Secretly we kissed in rainbow mist

Our love was mountain strong

Secretly we missed and made a wish

As the birds flew over and sung

Touching with water

My own rainbow

Beauty sleeping

I am weeping

It’s a nightmare world

Sing it loud

Sing it long

It’s our song

Mountain strong

Rivers

We are rivers leading out to sea

Men of the coal mine

Dirty

Sexy

Brave

I love a hero

But no-one comes

I look at my photo

And remember my wounds

I open my eyes,still the same size

To find love

I know I should be dressing-up

Doing my hair and my make-up

I know I should be eating right

I think I have forgotten how to put up a fight

A Dear Job

You wake up in the morning with nothing to love

You go on the computer and direct gov

You go to the library and give your CV to the pub

16 hours would be enough

Or maybe in retail, a shop of rosebuds

It’s really hard to keep the hope

There’s 100 people tugging on the other side of the rope

It doesn’t matter how much TV

Or how many people you see

Unemployed is not enjoyed

I would rather be a busy bee

Words,music,everything arty

Where do you go?

Counting raindrops

Counting forget-me-nots

Counting tablets and pamphlets

Counting how many times you

Have not travelled the planet

I’ve been looking for velvets and satin

Dreaming that romance will happen

Let’s

Let’s hold hands and search for rocks

Let’s look at the sea and watch the yachts

Let’s draw our names in the sand

Hide in a beach hut

Get freckles in the sun and go barefoot

Let’s hold hands on the park

Run on the grass and share our hearts

Let’s go on the swings and

Catch each other on the bottom of the slide

Let’s fly like we have wings

And go on a train ride

Let’s hold hands under the table at school

Let’s have kisses in the gym changing room

Let’s get caught talking and laughing in class

You are my first love and my last

Personify’s Love

My mum personify’s love

Every meal she makes is perfect grub

Every pot she washes is in fairy liquid suds

Every time she cleans and the hovers the house,

It look’s so good!!!

I really should help my mum

Tidy my room and hover the crumbs

I really should give her flowers

For sitting with me and making towers

For every homemade birthday cake

For being my best mate

I truly thank you mum

When I am sick you make me feel

Better like magic

When I am cold and tired

You turn on the fire

You personify love

Like the water and sunshine above

Mysterious inland lake

There is flooding everywhere,

Which road should we take?
