Tonight, I have chosen to retire rather early. I now sit in my little box—this hole-in-the-wall I shall call my home for two nights—and reflect on this long day. A long journey of much waiting, but also of many gifts and unplanned stops. I didn’t realise the bus would make stops along the way forContinue reading “Early Night”

Equinox
The rain comes and goes in droves of cats and dogs, ushering in longer days as the seasons change. Today is the day when perfect balance between light and dark is achieved. And each hemisphere sees the sun equally. On this day, what is it that you hope to achieve? Still, the internal battle continuesContinue reading “Equinox”
Buck Full Moon
As I’m sat here in my flimsy foldable chair, Modestly under-dressed for a mildly chilly night, The moon clearly gleams and beams in the sky. Half of July has gone by, and yet, I am still thinking about last December; I witnessed the Geminids under a different full moon, And in a bout of personalContinue reading “Buck Full Moon”
It’s Just a Flightless Bird
On some wintry morning, I saw a bird on my front lawn. It was a very still bird with greyish feathers and a strange demeanour. A flightless bird. One who had scattered feathers everywhere around it on the green grass. An upside-down bird. Curiously and soundly asleep among the everyday happenings of a Wednesday. ButContinue reading “It’s Just a Flightless Bird”

There have been geese with scary teeth, And leaves that turn red at the touch of autumn, Yet, we’re so quick to forget the one who made it. In grand miracles and nature’sContinue reading “Never Alone”

As a new beginning dawned On a beach where we once stood, During the dark hues of a dusk, Where the stars were shy And the waters, mysterious. We smiled at each other And greeted the cloudy sky. Like a young heartbeat, the window to the sky slowly flickered a pale yellow. To know yourContinue reading “The Window to the Sky”
Look Up At The Stars
Look up at the stars They’re like pieces of art Floating above the ground The air was cool and the night was dark, at least, away from where we found ourselves; away from the blinding lights of the gazebo decorated with warm fairy lights. Waiting for the last of us to arrive, we mused atContinue reading “Look Up At The Stars”
Yesterday I missed my bus stop
Yesterday I missed my bus stop Because I daydreamed about the future. I smiled as I thought about taking Those daily one second snippets I would love and cherish. I was imagining a whole year in review Before it had already started, Because I am excited For the days to come. The bus drove byContinue reading “Yesterday I missed my bus stop”
Sunny Days, Cloudy Judgement
In days gone by, she may have given Her thoughts not a second glance, But entertaining them leaves her So uncertain. For better or for worse, Her head has been up in the clouds, Stuck on spiraling thoughts about – Herself. On sunny days she looks up to the sky, The birds fly and bicker,Continue reading “Sunny Days, Cloudy Judgement”
