In my dream last night, you offered you to me
You put your arms around me, I returned the embrace
We walked inside a garden abloom with grace
Adjectives, there are many, but none capable to tell
Of how connection to your skin made me feel
I fell
Straight down a well of smooth silk and clouds
Where romanticism flew with nights shooting stars
And flowers smiled at suns morning dance

Interpretation is unique

We are all explorers, so to speak

All students learning proceedings

Failing at mind reading

Complex beings with animalistic instincts

Our perception is our reality

On our own journey

Misinformed or underperformed

Communication is lost in all forms

Righteousness doesn’t seek praise

Recognition is desired in this instantaneous age

Self-indulgent pitiful complaints

Beats acknowledging responsibilities restraints

As self entitlement and blame culture implodes  

Society’s stuck at a dangerous crossroads

I listen to your words and absorb them Beyond Skin
Right through my Human bones to my soul deep within
I float on the lyrics, on the music and the tone
Through your Fragile Wind without wings I’m blown
Away to the gentlest, sweetest zone
Consumed and transported away but home
Little nod to musical genius Nitin Sawhney. Beyond Skin and Human are fabulous albums that take music to another level. Fragile Wind is a track on the Human album that has become my calming lullaby.

I needed to rest my kaleidoscope mind
Stop still, realign thoughts entwined
The sun is well set, the sky a lovely blue hue
Daylight has gently retired, generously awaiting night time to turn up for his shift
Street lamps distort the natural flow of time
Birds are singing a beautiful high pitched rhyme
Looking out of the window it could be dusk or dawn
Are the birds confused and singing for a new day
Or singing sweet lullabies
Enticing the silver moon out to play

Profound jazz tones on the rocks
Dragged down gravel pathways
In crystal cut glasses
Harmonised sweet pain-felt blues in orange light
Smoke undulating, seductively dancing on top of piano notes of passion
With his words he brought down two stars
They found contentment in your eyes
And while the rest of the stars and the moon light up the night sky
Your starry eyes light my desire
And there’s nothing I can do about that

White, wispy, cappuccino-foam clouds
I imagine them disintegrating in my mouth,
like marshmallows
The log burner crackles and spits raging orange fireballs, that explode in to nothingness with intense metaphorical desire
Story-telling songs play, predicting predicaments, provoking thoughts of the simplicity of taking this moment
Singing tunes of promises and reading minds, in a forest of thoughts on pine scented pathways
In my log cabin dream, you are here
A sanctuary of wilderness combusts in to freedom
Telling me your secrets, you trace intense, poetic sketches on my skin
And like the snaking smoke of incense, they evaporate in to the air
As if they were never there
