Memories Arisen

Post by carndo » Thu Oct 29, 2020 5:33 pm

warm memories risen in the wind

where a smile arises

unexpectedly

within the midday

where if pressed

that whisper finds

a gentle reprieve

into tomorrow

where understandings are met

yet in that dream

the wit is not lost

just that inclination

into yesterday

Splendid Times

Post by carndo » Thu Oct 29, 2020 5:35 pm

the splendid times

where memories rise

into the dawn

yet find that moment

where I find your eyes

reaching past your touch

into that certain whisper

rising into the distance

where perspectives

seem lost

yet somehow we find them

even though

time

finds us chasing the sun

Off Shore Breezes

Post by carndo » Mon Jan 03, 2022 10:51 pm

an off shore breeze

that touches briskly

letting one know

certain moments

that come to be

whispering of the past

ancient in lore

that pause

felt in the sun

where one simply listens

making one feel alive

and going forward

encircling what it can

only a day at a time

At Midnight

Post by carndo » Mon Jan 03, 2022 10:53 pm

moonrise shining at midnight

embraced by the reflections

where the winds touch in the breeze

whispers find those memories

horizons celebrated within the distance

journeys found in a breath of time

that sweet hunger

subtle within the hour

lost in the moment

elusive where it matters

and yet...

one knows that it does

even though we ignore it

but we can't deny it

Held Within

Post by carndo » Mon Jan 03, 2022 10:54 pm

to touch within the heart

reaching through those echoes

held within that loving cup

where we see

what we see

in memories



shall we keep that ballad

rhythms set within harmony

lyrics sung so sweetly

yet in the distance

celebrations of the heart

as we touch in that open invitation



echoes met within the night

languages drawn

from moment to moment

where we complete each other



tomorrows found

yet that future

is not quite known



but it doesn't matter

only what

we have today

Moon Rises

Post by carndo » Mon Jan 03, 2022 10:55 pm

Moon rises

within that

luminous shine

where memories

find that drawing need

celebrations of moments

that find their place

where whispers

reveal secrets

that tend to be private

mysteries of hours

between two

within that context

of romance

where sometimes those impulses

rise in magic

that touches the soul

But A River

Post by carndo » Mon Jan 03, 2022 10:59 pm

life is but a river

that flows within this universe

it cuts through to the cosmos

making its own way

rushing at times in its rapids

other times flowing within a set pace

where it moves

is anyone's guess

it simply finds its own way

sometimes finding those deltas

that reaches wide

giving life as it touches others

in its own private way

inviting those smiles

that means something

to those that know it

a journey unique

in its own way

In The Nigh

Post by carndo » Mon Jan 03, 2022 11:00 pm

within that restlessness

in the nigh

complete awareness

that somehow draws me

into the shadows

yet somehow

I show no fear

I open my eyes

to all of my surroundings

finding that darkness

deep within those pools

reaching within

that abyss

where in that reflection

it smiles back

and welcomes you to follow

if you dare

and yet you know better

Within The Silence

Post by carndo » Mon Jan 03, 2022 11:01 pm

within the silence

I close my eyes

shut the world out

and give myself a moment of peace

a simple break

of the chaos that surrounds me

turn off

what some see as essential

and I see it as noise

that's unnecessary

to survive

and finally relax

letting things simply be

without me involved

let issues

figure out themselves

what they need to

and somehow tomorrow

continues

Funny Thing About Illusions

Post by carndo » Tue Jan 04, 2022 11:46 am

funny thing about illusions

you see things one way

yet in reality those appearances

can be deceiving

those shadows find places

within simple delusions

revealing unseen truths

that hide in plain sight

never mind the yesterdays

that once was

somehow one must see

what's right in front of them

and seize those todays

Those Echoes

Post by carndo » Fri Jan 07, 2022 7:49 pm

I close my eyes

touching within

those echoes

in the waves

where the rush of the water

flows against my mind

flowing into the blind

yet somehow I see

things that I shouldn't

but sometimes that's just life

time continues

even when you want things to slow down

but they don't

so one moves on

Hidden Reflections

Post by carndo » Fri Jan 07, 2022 7:51 pm

reaching through the silence

those echoes that remind one

of those hidden reflections

paths that somehow remain

and yet it still is in plain sight

the future is not

but choices find their meaning

even if we don't understand them

sometimes we need eyes

that see beyond the obvious

and a heart that remains open

Thos Moments Of Time

Post by carndo » Mon Jan 10, 2022 5:14 pm

stepping into those moments of time

where memories arise

that simply makes one smile

finding that journey

one foot in front of each other

completing dreams long sought

yet knowing there's more ahead

all one has to do is see it

and have the vision within the heart

within that mention

continue on the echoes

that whisper

come hither

life will find a way

A Cat's Chortle

Post by carndo » Mon Jan 10, 2022 8:39 pm

a cat's chortle

sundering all through the day

conversing in that silent response

that reveals secrets

told only in sarcasm

tail rising in laughter

which gleams in moments

reflecting a smile

that echoes

yet the humor

finds a sparkle

in eyes

that watch for meanings

seconds

after

Invitations That Touch

Post by carndo » Tue Jan 11, 2022 11:11 am

invitations

that touch people with coming and going

some that are meant to

some that come by happenstance

those roads move on

but the celebration of life continues

we have to seize it

find those winds that take us there

if only for a moment

open those eyes

and see what is offered

we aren't guaranteed tomorrow

only today
