Paper Boat Of Dreams

Down rain filled gutters

into little streams

I skipped beside

my paper boat

following my dreams

I freed it by the river

under the willow tree

my little boat a quiver

swirled off to the sea

A sea of emotion

was soon to ebb and flow

if it ever made the ocean

I would never know

Twirling through rainwater

rushing down streams

I'm trying hard to stay afloat

on my paper boat

of dreams

Dancing With The Rain

You tiptoe softly through my dreams

like a cloud on a summer breeze

Although I try and embrace you

you slip through my fingers like rain

Arms open wide I reach for you

Rain is falling all around me

pitter-patter like a heart beat

I'm dancing with the falling rain

When I wake up in the morning

I pray that I may fall asleep

I want to dance with you again

rain is falling all round me

Yellow Is The colour

Yellow flowers

greet 
the rising sun

and 
become
 one

with the waxing moon.
 Long 
are the hours
of 
the torrid afternoon.

 A little 
torment
a little 
pain

of passion 
unspent.
Drenched 
in rain
 a potent soul
makes me whole
again

Drawing Circles

reflections of you

float upon the still water

lightning dances in the clouds

distant thunder rolls over the hills

soon the rain will fall

stealing across the valley

to draw circles on the lake

distorting the illusion

Rain On Me

Standing in the

falling rain

I tremble

like the rose

drenched in the dawn

that lifts her face

and spreads

her leaves

to hide her thorns

I stand in the

falling rain

just to feel

your touch again
