Invitation

 

Open your mind by staring into the words of another. Take inspiration, motivation or simple exploration for granted as often as you like. It's words, without commitment. Mull upon it, share or discard. Visit as often, or as little as you like.

Based in the seaside Bay of Plenty, mind refreshers as easy to come by, and never rushed by anyone, or anything. 

 

Take time to reflect in creativity, explore your thoughts, or browse to your heart's desire.

Poetry

Hot Tea

Hot Tea

Why are you so far away

A pause as long as death

Poignant steam malingering

Against the rush of mind

I shall not share your fragrance

Or my thoughts that doth accompany

Hot Tea

Ah the time is nigh for me

The Clouded Night

 

Oh, clouded night

Where art thou sails?

Oh, empty mooring

No promise for berth

Shrouded Stars

Guidance Veiled

Thou art only companion

To Salty Sound

 

 

W e t a 

Did I forget?

Your sticky feet

Upon my fingerprint?

Did I not stop?

To see you

Balanced on a twig?

Did I not admit?

My love

Your natural beauty

Did I listen

Only to the screams

Of those afraid of Creatures?

No. I was busy.

Absorbed by Human Nature.

Did you meet?

My daughter?

Chubby finger stretched

Waiting for your feet to tread

The pathways of her mind.

 

Mysterious Echo

How far is that sound?

Does it need that air?

Memories languish in the deep

To call to one another

Amassing mysteries

To remain unseen

Sailing

V1

We haven't got it all together

And we don't care if it's forever

Well I suppose, we've got our problems

But there's no pressure

To solve them

Ch 

When I'm Sailing with you

Today

No need to pretend

We know our way

If I had a fortune coming my way soon

I would give it up 

For this

Cos Money can't buy

This lack of a lie

Or the feeling of Your kiss

And I'm so high tonight

I'm so high

Alright?

V 2

And I'm just me

And you're just you

We've got no shame

In the Silly Things we'd

Just take a breath

Just take a day

No need to pretend

We know our way

A Woman

V1

I'm a woman

In your eyes

I'm a girl

In disguise

You're looking

My Way

Abusing

The quality of My Day

 

Ch

I have got something

And it is mine

I feel you watching

I feel it's unkind

I'm walking this path and it is my own

So for now

You leave me alone

V2

I know exactly that

this is a game

I'm not too sure

That I want to play

I am the mistress 

Of my own energy 

I'm not wasting it on you

No matter how

You direct yours at me

Sunshine

 

V1

Would you be my sunshine

Cos I've been lonely for days

Standing in the moonlight

Never knowing how to say

That girl I've been needing you

For the longest time

But something defeated you

Til you were no longer mine

Ch.

Nothing wrong with loving

Nothing wrong with truth

But all that don't mean nothing

If you don't know you

See I've been sleeping 

All the wrong hours

All these things been keeping 

Me from myself and my

Power

V2

Would you stay awhile now

Perhaps forever with me

Let me see you smile now

Or better yet just be

Cos I need something for the silence

And the rooms inside my heart

Cos I know Girl that we've seen violence

So let's make this our start

 

Sleepy Guitar

V1

I like a sleepy guitar, it reminds me of you

Slow to anger, quietly firm, resounding with truth

Does not insist it's presence upon me, but I can't help but give it

Will not flaunt, it's loveliness openly, but I can't help but see it

Ooo, ooo

V2

I like a farmer's back pond, it bears resemblance to you,

Dark with deepness, a source of life, a place that I can run to,

Does not move an inch in a lifetime, yet remains ahead of me

Will not reflect, until the right time

Yet knows the reasons immediately 

Ooo ooo

V3

I like the sun at dawn, it tells stories of you,

Half-revealed, with barely birthed power, it's actions no one can undo

Getting ready, to rule the earth with, it's unavoidable light

I know it's won, before the battle ends

It will conquer the night

Ooo ooo

V4

I like the silence, it just is you,

Resting on nothing, with nothing to fear,

It can never speak untruths,

It's ever present, yet only speaks to some

It calls to anyone

But they must silence themselves to come

Ooo ooo

Play

 

V1 

I played, for an age tonight

Duets, with the other half of my mind

My fingers, they touched secrets tonight

Secrets, only God could hide

Ch

Play, play baby

Play, play for me

 

V2

Rose petals,

I can feel them on my skin

Beings easy

Once you begin

Bridge

No I won't stop

What's going down

No I'm not frightened of these thunderclouds around

Need no protection 

No I'd rather die

Have the overwhelming truth

Than live a lie

Stranger

V1

You make the best stranger

I've ever had the honor to meet

I can taste your aura of danger

From my end of the street

Breathe and I'll watch you

You tell me if the air tells the truth

You tell me stranger

Ch

There's no answers out there

You and I both know

No use living on a prayer

If there's no truth in your soul

So please pretty stranger won't you lookin my eyes

Show me what I want to ser

You know my addiction, I know all your lies

And we're knowing

And we're letting it be

V2

Wanna know how I know you

Best stranger I'll ever meet 

You're just like me

My shoes 

My walk

Your feet

Your eyes are cold 

But your heart is a fire

I'll tell you Stranger

Just Because

 

V1

Just because I don't say very much anymore

Doesn't mean I don't love you

As before

Just because your name isn't 

Written all over me

Doesn't mean I wouldn't cross

For you the widest sea

It's OK

If I don't smile

Quite as much as yesterday 

My eyes tell you the things now

My mouth used to say

Finished 20 questions long ago

Know all I need to know

To tell myself

And the world I'll never let you go

Ch

Cos you are

My City Lights

Can see you

From Far Away

You shine

So pure

So bright

Leave me nothing left to say

V2 

Just because I don't run

To you for Everything 

Doesn't mean

For your Voice

I'm not still listening 

No one's Perfect

That's For Sure

And I've stopped trying

But I still give my heart, my soul

My best undying

Tell myself

This

Is still good

Go on Stay

We should

Make it right

Everybody has

A few stormy nights

 

 

 

White Flower

V1

White flower

How is your day?

Seen you for hours

No I don't want to play

Is it rain there?

Or is it sun 'n' sky?

Don't wanna 'talk' or 

Ask why

 

V2

 

Plight hour, are you gonna get your way?

Yards of breeze

No, nothing to say

Fire hot, temper of clay

Stone cold, oo don't you Stay

Destruction

V1

Let's hear it for the movie stars 

Rock legends, and cool guitars 

Let's hear it for the silver screen

Bright lights and the downtown scene

There's a bit of you in everyone

And everyone's in you

So don't claim ignorance

V2

Let's hear it for untamed

The cold world in the morning paper

Let's hear it for the internet

And public use of spacebound jets

We steam our way through galaxies

And leave a trail of refugees

Then claim helplessness

V3

Let's hear it for corrupt presidents

Big bills and overpriced rent

Let's hear it for the perfect face cream

And all those lying beauty magazines

The age old ill of common man

Manifest since time began

Let's see your self-absorption

Bridge

Path of destruction 

Chosen at the

Injunction

Designed to be a fork

In the road of knowledge 

We've got 

Cold Fusion

Of a mass of illusions

Hiding

The deadly sniper in the hedge

 

Transcendance

 

Oh, transcendance

Seems I missed you again

Will I

See you in this life, my friend

Oh, transcendance

I have no soul without you

So bury me

In a book

That is only about you
