There are places
I’ll remember
All my life
I’ll remember
All my life
Ever changing
Never changing
Just like me

This world between skies
In this world between skies
I thrive
Where turns go on forever
Edge to edge
Soft, flowing, floating
Sailing through
The clouds of white
Billowing all around me
I thrive
Where turns go on forever
Edge to edge
Soft, flowing, floating
Sailing through
The clouds of white
Billowing all around me
The Stone in the Lake
Oh I
Who felt the contractions
Of a world in birth
I carry the experience of aeons
The history of Earth
Who felt the contractions
Of a world in birth
I carry the experience of aeons
The history of Earth
A solid from liquid
Carved and shattered
Cracks refilled by molten rock
Uplifted and fractured
Sundered and separated
Tumbled and rolled
Now here
Settled gently
On the shore
Of a still lake
On a quiet dawn
To marvel at the fleeting existence
Of the things that live
Even the tree
Black and White
From behind the clouds
The sun leaps out
Glares in my eyes
The world becomes
A contrast of
Simple black and white
The sun leaps out
Glares in my eyes
The world becomes
A contrast of
Simple black and white
The details lost
No greys or shadows
The colours lost
No textured nuance
And it occurs to me
The same thing happens
When I shine the light too hard
On the truths I’m seeking
Waves
Life comes at me in waves
Rolling in
Crashing down
Leaving me sputtering
Gasping
Rolling in
Crashing down
Leaving me sputtering
Gasping
Though…
Every now and again
I catch one
A long glorious ride
Exhilaration
Exultation
Delightful experience
All the way to shore
Greys and Greens
This misty shore
Calls to me
Greys and greens
The susurro
Of waves on sand
The whispered wind
In long stemmed grass
Relieve me from
Hard lines and steel
Harsh words and sound
My urban stress
Calls to me
Greys and greens
The susurro
Of waves on sand
The whispered wind
In long stemmed grass
Relieve me from
Hard lines and steel
Harsh words and sound
My urban stress
Was there life before life?
I love the places which transport me
Back to a time
When all there was
Was rock
And gas
And water
Back to a time
When all there was
Was rock
And gas
And water
A time before anything lived
And the closest thing to life
Were molecules
Which looked like
The kinda things
You built life with
Stratospheric Sunrise
Climb up into darkling sky
Long before the sun awakes
Ambush it there
In its rising shout
Neon rainbow
Across the world
Beyond the edge
Of Earth
Beyond the realm
Of life itself
Long before the sun awakes
Ambush it there
In its rising shout
Neon rainbow
Across the world
Beyond the edge
Of Earth
Beyond the realm
Of life itself
Shrouded in Fog
This rocky land
This forlorn place
This world in
Shrouded grey
This forlorn place
This world in
Shrouded grey
Beyond the straight
A farther shore
Receding
In the mist
