Confined

Emotion confined
Invites a sundering flood
Passion jumps the banks

The world transforms
With just half a turn
Twice sun kisses
Sky and stone

In the dusk
With gentle love
Comes the dawn
With passion’s lust

Sometimes I prefer the grey

Shadows can be too dark
Highlights can be too bright

In the grey all is line and texture
I see the form of what is

Without interpreting darkness and light

On a day
Of unremitting grey
I find a moment
Of pure passion
And joy

A place in the world
Embattled and oppressed
Like so many other
Places in the world
Nonetheless
Vibrant, passionate, alive

In the last lingering moment of daylight
Beneath an everlasting beacon
I know my love for you

Bright as the nearest star
Steady as the lighthouse beam
Vast as the ocean
Persistent as the waves
Breaking on the enduring rock

Sometimes a caress
A lullaby sussurus
Sometimes a storm
A tempest of ecstacy

The sky
And Earth
On fire

Like your touch
Trailing a line
Along my flesh

I am this Island
In a shallow sea
Beneath the waning sun
Waves rolling by
Gently to the shore

The ebb tide comes
The Island transformed
Another rock
Beside the ocean
On a shoreline of nothing
But rock and sand

I love being in a place
Where creativity thrives
Where paint and passion
Offer more vibrance and colour
Than nature’s grandest sunsets

I am learning
The difference between
Fire and Light

One burns
The other illuminates

One is zealotry
The other is passion

One is hubris
The other is clarity

One is seduction
The other is insight
