Lurking beneath
Hidden currents
Shadows falling
Unknown creatures
Darkest blue
Uncomprehending
Pressure inexplicable
Ferocious cold
A peaceful wonder
One world within another

Lying
Lying on your back the sky looks vast,
you feel so small.
The only way that perspective is gained,
don’t look away, accept.
Your place is here,
the time is now,
everything is before you.

Heat
Shining down,
reflecting up.
I am in the middle,
sizzling on the outside, cooked to the core.
Wishing to be submerged,
floating under the surface.
Breathe, breathe,
lungs on fire.
Just stop,
don't move,
it will pass.

Now : Poem
Looking forward,
focused,
driven.
Glancing back,
regretful,
hesitant.
Look in the mirror,
alive,
present.

Solitary Stroll : Poem
Fresh air to the lungs and the soul.
A stretch of the legs, an expansion of the mind.
A moment of solitude, surrounded by life.
A patch of nature, in a concrete jungle.
Then home to life, smiles and love.
