My Wave

It's a big ocean.
As my wave carries me out to sea,
Away from the shore,
Away into the biggest blue,
I can hear the world turn to water.
Nothing but the restless tide,
Flowing in, flowing out.
Here, I am alone.
Without doubt or fear,
Without false hope or
Broken dreams.
Waves crest and roll around me,
Yet the wave I ride is my own.
Ebb and flow, I roll on with the ocean,
No need to remember,
No fear to lose again,
For here, I am as the water;
Timeless.

For home is where the heart is.

I Need You

Close to me.
So close that I will know you.
Cover me.
I want to know a world inside of you.
Surround me.
That the infinite around me is of you.
Talk to me.
So the voice inside my mind is you.
Believe me.
I need you because I love all that is you.

I love thunderstorms.

I Promise....

Fear not, I am here beside you
Ever faithful, ever loyal,
I shall abide here by you,
And keep my heart for you.
Keep your freedom and its echoes,
As you delve into your sorrows,
For the day you find tomorrow,
You will find the limits you love.

Keep forever walking
On the roads that will not find you,
Let your loneliness remind you
What you yourself forsook.
Let the past become your leader
For it is all you ever trusted,
When you're broken, bent and rusted,
Look around you, I'll be there....

Right after I tour Europe...

Remorse for My Loss

Pain, enduring heartache,
For that which was loved, is still loved
Is lost.
Memories and burdens of the past
Mingle in tears shed
Raining down on fragments and shards
Of my beloved,
A passion-filled bond, a union without measure
And in a moment, all has been broken.
Guilt strikes me like a blow,
And all that I revered
Now lies shattered at my feet.
In a time of complacency,
I broke faith with my love.
Where once my lips were touched
With a blessing, a scent that inflamed me,
All is now derision and blame,
All is now pieces and shame,
All is now ended.



And it was my favourite colour lipstick too...

Beyond My Control

Lover, sit before me where I can see your soul
Challenge me with saddened eyes,
Bend beneath your burdened mind
And hold before you the heart of the world.
Trick me with your broken chords,
Tie my thoughts with care and woe
And bring to my gaze the agony,
The chaos loose that I cannot end.
Trouble me with your hurt and
Clench the fists of my rage
For I would seek to destroy
That which could hurt you.
I would seek to destroy
That which would punish you.


Can I get you another coffee?

Twilight At The Harbour

Violet covers the moon in an early sunset,
While grey begins to cover the sea,
And the white caps of the breakers
Are all that is left to show the waves.
Coarse sand shifts in the twilight
Where footprints led to the cliffs,
And a lone dog barks in the distance
As the ships slowly move into night....

Anyone know how to light this barbeque?

A Little Ditty

To be sung to Barry Manilow's CopaCabana....

'Her name was Lola
She was a show cow,
With yellow flowers in her hair,
And a tail right down to there,
She could meringue,
And do the cha cha
While she tried to be a star,
She didn't see the coming car,

The car was red and black,
And Lola stared right back
There was a scream behind the wheel
As it drove off-track

In Wodonga, oh yes Wodonga,
Home of the biggest sa-le ya-rds
In the southern hemisphere,
In Wodonga, oh yes Wo-dong-a,
Music and mooing
Are so time consuming
In Wo-dong-aaaa
Don't be a cow......

It Dawned On Me

Swirling light misting ground and turning trees to shade,
A mantle of sky that fell to the world and broke the night,
Colours awakening, yawning and stretching fingers,
Dark shadows retreating behind form and flower,
Chill moist air is battled by the advancing warmth
And tries to linger in the grass....
Sound wanders over the land, broken and vague,
To become solid and heartfelt, no longer hesitant,
Small bright eyes follow the patterns of light,
Seeking quick shadows, stealthy patrons of beneath,
And the earth sends forth her scent, the breath of the day....


oh man, it's morning already?
