Now in this moment...

Reflecting on our day together

In the quiet of late afternoon

The light begins to fade

In a dream-like atmosphere

The sun low in the sky

Leafy shadows dance on the wall

In this silence 
So close, now in this moment

My eyes, holding your gaze

Longing for you

To love me…

Songs of Flowers

I love the song

Of meadow days

Of grasses sighing

On the softest breeze

The muted tones

Of morning light

The scent of flowers

Wild and fair

Floating sweetly

On the summer air

The songs of flowers

Everywhere…

Soft Morning Sky...

Soft morning sky...

On waking, in those first moments

Of consciousness

In the softness and the quiet

My thoughts meander

Amidst the beauty of your light

And drift as if floating on a cloud

Your promise of a new day

Wraps my heart in hope

That one day the dreams

I have just left

Will become a reality...

Vale Alan Rickman

21st February 1946 - 14th January 2016

I was so very saddened and shocked to hear of the death of Alan Rickman, one of the best-loved and most warmly admired British actors. A wonderful man and magnificent actor playing roles of many characters both in films and on stage, a man with the perfect voice.To me he will always be the kind and honorable Colonel Christopher Brandon in the 1995 screen adaptation of Jane Austen's novel Sense and Sensibility. Rest in peace dear Alan, you will be forever in our hearts, your legacy eternal.

If I could...

If I could paint you a meadow

Of soft sighing grasses

I would fill it with wild flowers

Of every colour, every hue

If I could paint you the sky

It would be of brightest blue

With white wispy clouds

And the sun shining through

If I could paint you a meadow

It would be my gift just for you…
