Phases

Phases

Cold windy nights
Hot fish chips.
Shining shore lights
A reluctant moon
Behind the clouds.
The ferry cuts
Across the dark
Atlantic waters.

The sea roars
The foam surges
Waves rush
And draw back
like a lover’s
shifting moods.

Midnight fires
Passion flares
Scaling heights
Of deep love, trust
and commitment
My poetic phases.

Dawn breaks
In pearly grey
No hint of sun
Transient tones.
Dark follows
The light of joy.

Brooding nature
Heaven’s tears
Mirror my inner
Feelings let me
Ramble showing
my poetic phases.
