Out walking

Birds singing in the morning, birds singing in the sky, sunlight from the heavens, my imagination running wild, my imagination running wild, as I walk in a cool breeze with inspiration in my eyes, and as I walk, the birds are singing in the morning, the birds are singing in the sky, and there is […]

Out shone

What a sight, what a sight, in the darkness, where out shone the light, from the black of night, and the sound of footsteps they carried through the air, as a man wearing a coat and a hat trod across the Earth all muddy and wet, and the torch pierced the blackness, as he struggled […]

Out of time

Waiting for the end of the day, and the beginning of the night, thinking of a time, immemorial to my mind, a vision of me, a vision of me and you, upon a boat upon the sea, a calm sea, with you and me, and the tranquillity, and us drinking wine, and us laughing happily, […]

Out of this

Out of this I had a wish, I had a wish for more, for you shone like the sun and there was only lust, and a little gold and I wanted more, but you are so elusive in the streams, where I mostly stand forlorn, and I rarely find you, the gold of which dreams […]

Out here in the sun

Out here in the sun, great swathes of light, great rays coming down, great rays travelling from yonder sun, travelling so many miles, far more than I could ever calculate by sight, but miles that I like to ponder upon, because the sun, because the distance of the sun, has only been roughly calculated, and […]

Open

Open up, open up says the man. Open up, I have a plan, I have a plan to take your money if I can. So, open up, open up if you can, and he growls and he scowls, and he bangs and he bangs, and he harangues and he harangues, and he shouts and he […]

Open season

What is it with you? Open season? For you come to me again, with your tales of heartbreak and treason, and with tales of your pain that seem to me without rhyme, and with tales of your pain, that seem to me to have no reason, and tales of your suffering, and tales of you […]

Only peace

There is only peace outside, and here I sit, and it is becoming far too normal for me, and I want chaos and disorder, and riotous shouts of happiness outside, and not this continual quiet that is seemingly never ending, for this coronavirus it continues unabated almost, and everyone is socially distanced, and oh, how […]
