    As always constructive comments welcome.

    Unspoken

    Two long wet moving shapes,
    Shadows drawn from closed drapes,
    From wall to wall and place to place,
    Sex is smelt from their embrace…

    Tenderly comes the beast with two backs,
    Gently it holds out, waiting for climax,
    Until this creature is one beast no longer,
    Now two people, with bonds much stronger…

    Now they are joined by grey, not pink matter,
    A connection that will with hope not shatter,
    The fragility of unspoken love put to a test,
    Should it crumble and fall?
    Should it just join all the rest?

    Or will its course stay straight and true,
    Will it surprise and last, shining through,
    Time, courage, patience and strength,
    In this imperfect world,
    To her his unspoken love is sent…

    Deep Water thought
    Ripples on clear water, the current drives
    forward heading out to sea. Fishermen stand
    with lines centred on the fish swimming on
    the crest of the waves. I switch towns and
    new scenes flourish before eyes that have
    seen wondrous sights in this land on mine.
    So I sit with the water on ether side one
    calm and the other with the current flowing
    and I wonder am I drifting.

    Drifting along this life’s currents with
    lines entangled in this mind so deep. Do
    I sink no for there is a willingness to float
    along choosing the course of my life’s passage.
    Yet am I waiting like a frightened young
    Seagull trying to take it first steps into the
    Water? Still reality strikes for I observe
    the beautiful all around strutting their
    stuff. Ah some things never change
    do they lad.
