"February"

Cold and still
Light it begins
Flow through
Snowdrops lead
Daffodils come through
Starts to feel brand new

February's taste
A breeze that will chill
Sun fighting rain
Believe in a new world
Feel good again

In hindsight
What seemed mountainous
Now seems minuscule
Time changes perspective
And some other things
But the essence of it is faith
That everything will be well in the end

Winter's winds have blown their last
Still summer seems so far off
Flowers start to bloom in a gentle glow
Feel a sensation full of hope

trapped dreams
live inside
menagerie
eyes, bronzed
by sleeping
sun ambering
into wishes
lingering in
reverie as
tokened lights
that guide
the dimming
world out of
the night
into the
forsaken
dawns where
prayer formed
from the stars
of the lanterns
of their joined
hands

The gravitational strength of the moon means that things that are not usually bouncy are bouncy, and things that are usually bouncy are now suborbital.

Turbulence in the relationship
Hits in all the wrong places
Felt a little disagreeable after our last argument
Being #bouncy in reflection is a craft I have learnt
Pulls through a vortex of misery
To a land of hope and glory
If you see me over smiling
A lot more goes on behind the scenes

A little something on dreaming, daydreaming, and whether you should leave some of them behind....

False Awakenings or a Simple Daydream?
When is a daydream not a daydream and is it okay to let it be?

A first kiss with you
Would be so wonderful
Awaken up the lights in me

The feel of your touch
Upon these delicate lips
Shine a light on my soul

If you let it linger a little
Watch me come alive
We are but fire tonight

You said to come find you
Show will power to get through
Give a little the path will be clear
I never realised the route would be so dangerous
I found a #mountainous terrain
Took all my effort just to get half way
My heart sounded loud for more than love
I travelled on I knew nothing else

Dark shadows, dim light
Snow mercilessly keeps falling
While I yearn for spring

Approaching his #mountainous childhood home, the soldier reined in. Seven years ago he'd left with his four best friends, aiming for glory in the southern wars. Now he rode alone.
In the distance, a woman called to her child. He turned back south.

Enchanted I was
Droplets of light on my skin
Is it tears or rain?

Sometimes
This world shines
With rainbows high in the sky
Clouds part and the sun comes alive
I am enchanted by the nature around
Snowdrops bloom in the undergrowth
Daffodils find beauty by the road
So wonderful how the hills meet the sky
Because
Sometimes
This world does shine
