[bodytext] => TEA Tea is fine, and a natural disinfectant. It is a good colourant for clothing. It has astringent properties. So drink up, friends, and pour one for me, too. TOUCH AND LOVE Reach out, touch me. Touch your brothers and sisters. We all need touch. Oh yes, brothers. It is communication of love. It takes us back to the big bang, when we were all one. SEX Sex is for lovers. Find that special someone, be it man or woman. Exchange those hormones, and your pulse will race. And dance with the dragon of desire. TIME AND INFINITY The celestial clock ticks on; listen !- tick tock, tick tock. Let's hope it doesn't stop. Tick tock, tick tock. While you're sleeping, time rearranges itself. It compresses our lives into a flat hat, full of holes. Where time may escape. Watch out for these holes, my friend, for life is too short to let it all run out of flat hat holes. Tick tock, tick tock... THE SEARCH FOR A LOVER The search for a lover need not be fruitless. Look where you may- look left, look right, but never look down at your worn out old shoelaces, for they trigger feelings of worthlessness. You are worth more than your shoes. Maybe you are not sure of your path in finding a lover. But hear this- you have all the answers hidden inside the golden feathers of the firebird. Love beats within your breast like the eternal furnace of the sun. Answers are triggered by actions. REVENGE Many moons ago, a man I had called my friend stole my grandfather's golden timepiece from my own hands. At first I shook my fists in anger. My eyes bulged, and I turned to thoughts of revenge. I thought of putting a dead fish in his shoes. I thought of setting fire to his head. I thought of cutting down his sunflowers, and replacing them with bamboo canes with car hubs attached at the top, painted yellow. But soon I realised the folly of revenge. I discovered my friend had needed to pawn the watch to get money to feed his starving family. I asked myself, "what if I had acted in haste ? My friend might now have fishy shoes, melted head, and be saddened by his garden flowers, and all for nothing. It would be a friendship lost" And so I say to you, brothers and sisters, if a man should hit a porcupine in a moments anger, it will take him many moons to pull the spines from his fist. THE NINE LIVES OF SIMON OF THE DESERT Number 1. Simon walked off a cliff. And lived ! But not for long. Number 2. Simon held his breath. For too long. Number 3. Simon forgot to eat. Number 4. When Simon of the Desert bought a horse, he went riding over the mountains. And over the edge of the mountains and into a volcanic hole. Number 5. Simon ate poisoned beef. Number 6. Simon died of sunburn. Number 7. Simon tripped over a tree root and fell into an adder's nest. Number 8. Simon got hit by an asteroid. Number 9. Simon stayed indoors. And hoped for the best. As we all do. In many ways, there's a little of Simon in all of us. FIRE Fire is untameable. It is to be respected. It is one of the four elements and is your friend and your foe. It is your friend when it cooks your food and lights your way in the dark. It is your friend when it warms you, your family, friends and relations on the cold nights of Winter. But it is your foe when you don't honour it with oxygen and wood. It is your foe when it burns down your house, your friends house, your families and relations houses. So remember this; 'fire, fire, burn bright and warm, but not when you are burning my house'. EGO me me me ! That is the voice of the ego. It is fine if there is balance. But do not let your ego get its own way all the time, especially when money is involved. You may find yourself bankrupt of money and spirits.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
