Then go forward as gold that is struck by the Sun

Awareness
Of
Things
-
Learning
To See
-
Language
Installed
-
Child Life
-
Carefree
-
Interaction
-
The Lie
-
Distortion
-
The Pain
-
Loss of Faith
Man's Delusion
Such is life's game
-
So hold
To that Moment
You first heard your Name
The lie not yet born
The mind still unstained
-
Then go forward
As gold that is struck by the Sun
-
Innocence
Blinded
--
A Life
New begun

TRUTH






Truth dwells in many places and It travels many
Roads

Truth hides behind our faces whether we be
Saints or Rogues

Truth built the world we live in as it built a
Thousand More

Truth gave us all a conscience, to lead us to their
Doors

WASP

Now
Would you help

The wasp
That flounders
-
Struggling
In the jar of rain
-
Or
Would you watch

His life expire
-
Never to fly
Once
Again

-
Could he rest upon your finger?
-
Would he sting you with His
Pain?

-
If he flew
Would he tell God
-
You saved
His life
-
Whisper
Your
Name

Bluebells (Or Memories for Heaven)


The bluebells stand silently
-
Witnessing
Their green nature
-
Delicate chains
Of
Crisp bells
-
Weeping
Soft scents
Of
An English spring
-
Draped carelessly
Around old oaks
-
Waves of blue heaven
-
Sweeping down
Beneath the coppiced hazels
-
To
The Valley of the wildwood

Right there each time there right within us







If you despair
-
That God is missing
-
When God is needed know God is
-
Right there each time
-
Right thereWithin us
-
For it is through us
-

God lives

What Colour is Behaviour



What Colour is Behaviour
-
Where intolerance is bred
-
Green, Violet or Indigo
-
Orange, Yellow, Blue or Red
-
Such colours live in Rainbows
-
As component parts of Life
-
Yet
-
In 
-
Tolerance 
-
Together
-
Turn their colours into Light

And they all call it Britain



Crisp green the stems of daffodils
That brave in spring cold sun
Soft tender green the hawthorn buds
Unfurled with winter done
Bright green the fresh leaves on the limes
That verdant branches lace
Dark green the lily’s slender shoot
The moist earth piercing breaks

But greenest of all that is green
An island Earth did make
And they all call it Britain
Natures green estate
