A Master Piece

Have you seen the colours of spring
Rose peach orange yellow Amber grease
Colours that I saw when Earth laughed with flowers
To create a master piece

I yearn to touch the Autumn sky...
Fluttering clouds on soothing blue that never cease
Colours that I saw looking up at the blue
To create a master piece

The rains that pours across the glass
Reflects street lights with abundance release
Colours that I saw on rain stained glass
To create a master piece

The boyhood years of purling joys
Running across green moors ever so peace
Colours that I saw at every meadow
To create a master piece

The church spires flame on a wedding day
Grooms and bride amongst laughter and bliss
Colours that I saw amongst their twinkling eyes
To create a master piece

The August moon that shone of love
A soldier on his fence receives
Colours that I saw when he read his post
To create a master piece

Of all the colours in around us
Our colourful world as we see
I am still to paint a picture for all
And create a master piece

Song Of The Past

The train left the station
The whistles blew off guard
Unmindful in my journey
I hummed a song of past

The song of love and joy
Of closeness and memories amassed
Unmindful in my journey
I hummed a song of past

The fields ran green and rooks ran blue
Yellow dandelions showered a contrast 
Unmindful in my journey
I hummed a song of past

The song rose high on one of souls
The warm embrace that did outlast
Unmindful in my journey
I hummed a song of past

The beauty of lips that kissed with zeal
The sailor's heart dismast
Unmindful in my journey
I hummed a song of past

The rain quenched the country hill
As the train looped the hillocks cast
Unmindful in my journey
I hummed a song of past

The end of journey at a hill...cottages that run afar
The closing twilight that spoke avast
Unmindful through my journey
I hummed the song of past
