I Have Never Wanted MoreTo seek an end to time itself
That such a moment as this
Could be forever frozen
The leaf fall stilled
In midair freefall
Early frosts bade to spare
The bounty heavy laden
Fixed upon the apple trees
As seasons turn and turn again

Yet there is to be no cessation
Of the trickling stream of sand
Flowing forward endlessly
Taking all that I have ever known
Reshaping and unstitching
Every dream I ever had
Each fragment passing beyond my reach
A realisation that this too shall pass
But nothing could inspire me more

For until the earth stops
Whirling around our flaming sun
In an ever expanding universe
My passion and fervour for

Of Misspent AfternoonsBeyond the cornfields

A river runs
Inexorably to the sea
The willowed bank
Watches wistfully
The passing of an age
Lovers stolen afternoons
Are kept a secret
Between the birds and those
The mortal eye cannot see
A waning sun arcs and slowly slides
Etching the shadows
Of ecstasy entwined
Upon the windblown
Apple strewn ground
Bodies of heaven
Arise as the dark hour falls

Beyond the cornfields

AscensionFor the squall comes raging
When the stars arise
Your world meets mine
As fate entwines
So destiny shows its cards at last
Deep jade your gaze
Earnest and so full of need
Lock the blue before you
Lips meet sharp and sudden
Tentativeness giving way so soon
Hot and restless swelling tides
Lie down here with me
Beneath this sunless sky
Hip to hip
My life in yours
More than I ever thought you would be
All thought flies from consciousness
When desire rears to your touch again
Seek your answers
In the swell
Of the storm
Let lightning illuminate
All darkness vanquished
Every shroud disintegrates
No mystery here
In your obliv

L'Ame ImmortelleFlee

Far from me
If you wish to stay
As pure as you are now
No vestal white
Once I have spoilt
Stolen the glitter
From your eyes
Wrapped you up
Within my world
Did you think
I would let you go
No my sweet
My precious one
Evermore you will
Crave my touch
Do you not know fear

Then

Follow me down
There is no return
Do you still
Yearn to see
What lies beneath
The silk and knowing smiles
Under guttering candles
Forgo all you hold dear
In this place of fascination
Fade away from mortal view
Make your choice
Come lie with me
Take the hand
Now offered you
Your weakness is my triumph

I bind you

To my will.

The view from the back garden

*vitellan May 3, 2007

The view from your back garden must inspire you so much.

Beautiful contrast and composition, although I wish the photo was slightly less grainy.

Hmm, I thought it was a bit grainy too, but then I didn't like to fiddle with the image too much. Often all you need do to get inspired is take a look around, wherever you are, I always find something which startles and inspires.
