Searching for Valhalla...

Across the Rainbow Bridge

A few more...As Spring rolled around. My misanthropy is out in full force, though some gems like 'Road to Destiny' redeemed me somewhat.

The Truth

Hold fast to the truth

Fear not man’s machinations

Your reward will come

Man and Beast

Courage, friendship, love,

Lift us above simple beasts

And make us human

Courage and Conviction

We must embrace love

Why do we sleep with our hate?

Change is not too late

Road to Destiny

Fate is the driver,

Hope is the destination,

And love is the road

Concrete Jungle

Paradise is gone

Replaced with wild abandon

By concrete Jungles

Billions

We are too many

We pollute and steal and kill

We are too many

Blank Space (5 5 5)

Blissful solitude

The blank white paper

Life of a writer

Far From Home

A nomadic soul

The open world his comfort

Nostalgia his home

Poisoned Fruit

Knowing drives us mad;

Yet still our quixotic quest,

For boundless knowledge

Fly Away Kite

The kite string unwinds
faster than my hands can catch
my dreams fly away        

      

Inflict Love

Ours is to shed light.
Passions etch our dreaming skies,
as we inflict love. 

1984

We are still at war
why can't I remember when
we were still at peace?

Ocean View

Temptation will float
in an ocean of boredom
seeking souls as shores.

Topsy-Turvy

Dark times have fallen

When traitors are called heroes

And heroes traitors

The Afternoon View

Lean back and enjoy

The view from the afternoon

On an autumn day

Cry From the Grave

The tortured souls of

Sleepless souls cry from the grave

For respite from death

Poison Pill

Now I realize

The poison pill slyly slipped

In my life’s wine glass

Valhalla

And so it begins

The search for my Valhalla

What will the end be?

Duplicates

Why learn from the past?

Much easier to repeat

Your greatest mistakes

The End of the Beginning (5 7 7)

In time and in tide,

The days draw to a swift close

For my poetry and prose

As always, 

Forever yours,

Lloyd Webber
