You are my bright star
11 June 2020
The descent
In love’s psalmody
Binding heart
Rule of thumb
Thoughts about when we were numb
Hearts bitter and tight
Reckoning
Of imprint of soul
Unknown call
Of the tribe
The flutters of heart describe
Effect of the fall
Wave of dreams
You are my bright star
Suspended
In the skies
You are reason my heart flies
To polar extremes
Reading of the poem:
Miles Davis – Smoke gets in your eyes
A heron looked on
8 June 2020
The pond was icy
Surface a thin pane of glass
Like mirror it cracked
The gap extended
Glistening scales gleamed within
Their presence promise
A heron looked on
Slowly the surface did break
The fish would come through

Stive Morgan – Magic Travel
When bosom is spent
7 June 2020
Wild flowers
Slender fingertips
Atonement
Peering through
The face like a daisy’s gait
Nimble and humble
Meadows strewn
Pathways scintillate
Meanings sink
Into heart
The soul a wolf singing low
Songs of never more
Breathe me in
I am canticles
Chiming through
Desert rain
I am remainder of pain
When bosom is spent

Stive Morgan – Ice And Fire
When the light dies out
7 June 2020
Light is love
Darkness breeds the hate
We translate
Emotions
Anger is a reckoning
Of the love waning
Northern star
Life is within you
Embracing
Nothingness
I feel it your soft caress
Piercing through the veil
Hold me close
Within your bosom
Love to flout
All about
The darkness tends to blossom
When the light dies out

The Devil’s Wife 5 : The way of the Flesh
6 June 2020
Her laughter suddenly stopped as he made his way towards her. She felt a rise in the intensity of his gaze towards her. She could see his body shimmering in the sun although it was no longer visible when he was elsewhere in the room. It was a beautiful sight indeed, like a river of diamonds sparkling under the sun. He slowly picked her up from the chair where she was seated and lifted her, making his way towards the bed. She wondered what it would be like to have a physical relationship with him as until now they had only kissed.
He lay her on the bed and left her there her heart fluttering wondering where he was as he was out of the sun again and she no longer saw his shape. She felt him again as the bed was weighed down by his form as he stretched himself on it next to her. She felt him lean towards her and then felt his lips on hers as he kissed her slowly and deliberately. She was glad she was stretched on the bed as she felt herself going weak as he kissed her. He undressed her very slowly and she felt him study her body as he did so. It was as if her whole body was on flames as he kissed and touched her everywhere and as they made love she felt as if her whole being was consumed by him.
Later on as she lay beside him with her arms around him she felt that it was the happiest moment of her life with this contentment filling her up and warming her from the inside. She had never even in her wildest dreams imagined that she would be making love with an invisible being let alone the Devil himself. It was an exhilarating experience beyond her wildest dreams. She hoped that he too had experienced the same elation and she was eager to speak to him and get his impressions.
She wondered how it could possibly take place this way between them while he was not made of flesh. Yet the lovemaking was something that went beyond any pleasure she had ever had with men in a human form. He seemed to sense her mood and embraced her again making the flames soar higher within her. She thought to herself that this was not just the way of the Flesh. This was something more, the melding of two souls and two diverse forms of life. This was pure rapture.

It is always you
3 June 2020
I unwrapped
The gift you gave me
It contained
The endless
The skies reverberating
Love reigniting
We are one
Under shining sun
Glory’s wake
No mistake
In every leaf I find you
Nature’s rendering
I roam Earth
No longer in pain
Even rain’s
Still waters
Mind reminds when all falters
It is always you

Alternate Realities – Chapter Eight : Training the dragons
1 June 2020
She was awoken from her daydreaming about the dragons with a start when Horus touched her arm and pointed to a large clearing in the woods above which they were flying. Horus uttered a few words in the language of the light and the dragons swooped towards the clearing. She just had the time to cling on for dear life to the bony protrusion at the base of the dragon’s neck before they swooped as she had understood the command Horus gave just in time. The dragons had grown again in stature as she had been imagining them growing while they flew. They stood now in a circle around the large clearing.
Horus gave an order and the dragons took to the skies again before swooping down with their mouths open but without fires coming out of them. She realized that they were mimicking a flame attack but were just not using the full breath of the dragon as they did not want to set fire to the woods. Some of the dragon crossed each other’s paths and Horus asked them to stay at a safe distance from each other. He again gave the order for the attack and this time they came down swooping without crossing each other’s paths. After he had made them repeat the attack around 15 times, Horus told them that they could now play for the rest of the time.
The dragons scurried along the clearing and some wrestled playfully while the others flew about in the skies pursuing one another. A couple of dragons started getting overexcited and this resulted in them breathing out flames. Horus yelled out an order but it was too late. The flames had caught on to the adjacent trees that were very dry and immediately shot into a high flaming torch. The fire spread quickly to the nearby trees and it was soon a bushfire. The dragon she had rode on at the beginning swooped down from the skies and lowered his head so that she may climb up. She mounted and it immediately took off to the skies with the other dragons following closely. Horus was not very pleased with the incident but told her that the rains would take care of the bushfire in due course. He was still pleased with the rigour shown by the dragons in the training despite the incident as they were relatively young and inexperienced dragons. They are almost ready, he said with a smile.

Like doll on a shelf
30 May 2020
Icicles
Playing with my tears
Uprooted
From the trees
Falling they put soul at ease
On weather’s arrears
The water
The heart deranges
Fraying path
Through the veins
Its wake the mind estranges
Seasons of our pains
In their light
I renewed myself
No longer
Prone to flee
Circumstances that shook me
Like doll on a shelf

Eurythmics – Here Comes The Rain Again (Freemasons Remix)
When the stakes are high
29 May 2020
Mind travelled
Through the rising tides
Pregnant waves
Spilling forth
Seaweeds and plankton gushing
Like cry from a heart
To depart
From object of love
Like arrow
Piercing side
Forgotten the unwed bride
Widow of morrow
The sorrow
It wells in the soul
No control
Over tears
They spell out our random fears
When the stakes are high

Bark oozing shed tears
27 May 2020
Grasshoppers’ clamour
Enchanting tunes in the wind
Green grass their stronghold
I knelt to the grass level
Mind connected with the Earth
Fallen leaves crunching
Pathways strewn bloody green trace
End of the leaves’ life
Thoughts roaming to other ends
Life and death in pendulum
Trees whisper in wind
Language of mother to child
Bark oozing shed tears
Motherless, childless I roamed
My balance above all odds
