The very word itself is inspiring; it conjures up in my mind a world of infinite wonders that I can only marvel at.  Wonders that my head remind me that nature does not revolve around me, but around a vast universe of possibility.  For whether I acknowledge it or not, Mother Nature and all her diverse energies will continue to exist long after I have evaporated into the sand of earthly time.  She will continue to vibrate at her own frequency ever evolving and enhancing her beauty until she metamorphosis into the star she is meant to be.

The poems and writings on this site and within my books are purposely simple and are meant as building blocks to deeper thoughts (yours not mine).  They are reminders of things that in time have been overlooked or forgotten.

Please accept these little ramblings as signposts to the world you might have left behind in the innocence of yesterday

Jewels P.O.M. for August

Jewels

My heart is just a treasure

That opens like a chest

Filled with lovely jewels

A vision to digest

Its value is tremendous

No price can quite convey

And I am really pleased

You opened it today

You did it, oh so simply

With just a little smile

A gift that god has given 

To pass around with style

We all have our own treasures

To show the world each day

Filled with angels kisses

We have to give away

So go in search of treasures

And surely you will find

Chests just filled with jewels

And lots may look like mine

How Fickle & In Search Of Angels

How Fickle

How fickle, how fickle

the hands of time

That robs us all

of life divine

That takes our youth

as if misspent

Like the passage of moments

That do not relent

An hourglass

of what has been

That filter through

as if a dream

Faces come

and faces go

To what end

we do not know

But still we march

without remorse

For we are on

a lifetimes course

What will we say

when we reach our end

That all of life

is just pretend

While waiting for our star

Thought To Ponder – Each person experiences a unique reality, different from any other individual’s. This reality springs outward from the inner landscape of thoughts, feelings, expectations and beliefs. Seth

I come in search of Angels

To carry me back home

Where all the lights are burning

And no one feels alone

Where smiles they light up faces

And bring Gods love to view

A place of magic wonder

Where all our dreams come true

No sadness can it enter

For here is where you’ll find

Thoughts of love so gracious

And only joy resides

Its took a million lifetimes

And tears an ocean wide

To bring me to this moment

Where only Angels fly

World of Colours & Trade Winds 29.07.2026.

WORLD OF COLOURS The world is made from colours With hues so bright and clear Like Reds that shout out danger In tones so full and dear To Pinks that speak of loving And Yellows like the sun Such Blues that seem so endless Just like the sky above And then to make it...

Superficial Smile & Clinging To Life 22.07.2026.

Superficial Smile You take and make life easy With your superficial smile Your hands out stretched for grasping For you won't be denied But what about some payback I really think it's due You gave a little thought now On what you have to do To try and make amends now...

Time Is On The Wing & Buttercup 16.07.2026.

Time is on the wing How often I’ve heard that said But only when you are older Can you see the truth instead As hours fly by What once had been a moment Has now become a day Birthdays ever constant Mass without delay The only thing that’s slower Is your body in decay...

    I always find your poems so refreshing and indeed relaxing. When life becomes a whirl and gets too fast to cope with I just ‘fix’ myself by reading what you bring forward. Indeed a great tonic for me. Thank you Phil x

I have a firm belief in angels and feel them around me all of the time, especially when I need an extra bit of help in making decisions

Also, as I get older, I have a much better appreciation of the beauty of Mother Nature and enjoy nothing more than to sit in my garden and let her overwhelm me with her many gifts

The poems and writings on this website are reflections of my thoughts on various subjects, as they wander through my mind
