TreadingBaby, I adore you But you’re treading on my toes And I gotta see the world Before I grow to old. Baby, how I want you But the cold north wind do blow And I cannot bear the shackles Of the lonely, lonely home. Baby, don’t think badly Of this faithlessness I own I gotta keep on moving Else I know I’ll turn to stone. Baby, I’ll remember All the promises you told But I promise not a one Will I make you uphold. Baby, singing softly A song so sad and low, I’ll hold it in my heart As I tread the weary road Treading

Like YouI am like you, in all respects I talk and eat, I play, I rest I smile hello and you’d never guess How much my head is in a mess.
The world looms up and hems me in, The days are long, and cold and grim, The light around me shines so dim And all I do is nod and grin.
I dare not show my face to you You would laugh, I would laugh too I’d laugh it off, but when we’re through I’d know there’s nothing I can do.
I am like you in all respects, Plagued by the soft sigh of regrets. A tangled fray of fishing nets And oth Like You

Happy FaceHot breath on cold glass blossoming out, a cloud of potential. Write in it quick! Happy faces and names that fade from the edges. All that's left is the clear glass pane. Look straight through it, that slow seeping liquid. A thousand years of pretence; pretending to be solid whilst it waits, always waiting for the next brief contact. The next breath. The next fast-fading happy face. Happy Face

Silvered Sea and Ashen SandsSilvered sea and ashen sands Beneath cliffs of sandstone and clay The sun beams hail the coming day Over my home, my northern lands.
Walk the wilds by the river’s bend Past brambles, thistles and the like The peaceful sounds of motorbikes From the Mount with bird song blend.
The houses, shops and amusements crowd Along the shore, up to the town. The hills all tumble down and down To the autumn mist’s white shroud.
In the summer people horde, The town suddenly springs to life The air so thick, ‘twould take a knife To cu Silvered Sea and Ashen Sands

On me dit que le destin...

Staying Awake Til You Get TheStaying Awake 'Til You Get The Shakes
We'll stay awake to hear the birds sing their early morning blues We'll stay awake to watch the stars splatter against the sky We'll stay awake to talk it over As the sun rises above the roof of the moon We'll slowly fall apart.
We'll stay awake to sample the sounds of a night time death We'll stay awake to see satellites battle the shade We'll stay awake to fight about sweet nothings As the sun rises above the roof of the moon We'll slowly fall apart.
We'll stay awake for the sake of a place in this relationship Staying Awake Til You Get The

Sunday MorningSilence, it is the wind tapping his nearby window. I feel the rustle of the sheets, warm body heat dancing on my thighs. The alarm won't sound for another hour. Risen sun,
late starts are our sunday ritual. Roll back over,
enveloped in your scent. Would be my favourite moment, if not for the ones made before we fell asleep. Gentle breathing, we don't need to speak in raspy morning tones. Naked, comfortable, skin to skin never felt so routine. If pillows could talk, I know they'd say the dirtiest things. Love is this and this is love. Sunday Morning

Spears and swords and shields. Oh my!

Mon Nov 2, 2009, 8:26 AM

Ach, so I bugger off for a few days to get an assignment out of the way and you guys bump the gradually diminishing back log of deviations up again. That's just not playing fair.

I continue with my quest to reduce the numbers to a more reasonable amount but I fear I may be a little distracted again since, not only do I have to start work on the next essay, I also had my first Old Norse preparatory class today. Yay, I get to read passages about Vikings having shiny helmets (ahem). And sharp swords. It's pretty cool really though having to fork out another forty quid on the necessary books did tick me off a little bit. Beats the Georgic poetry I ahev to brush up on for Friday - mmm poems about farming in the 18th century, nice.

So busy, busy me is off to study (after checking out a couple of your fine deviations) who knows when I will re-emerge...

Thankyou so much for the fav on Haiku Theory. I am glad you enjoyed it. Are you interested in writing haiku yourself, or do you just enjoy reading them. I was just curious.

Have a great day,
Dick from Solar

Hi, I've always been interested in haiku but never really known how to get started, I'm hoping to have a go soon and this will really help me get into it.

Great - I am glad. There is a haikuwrimo coming up if you are interested. A bunch of poets get together and write a haiku poem each, every day for a month. We have a lot of people join - from beginners all the way to more experienced haiku poets. It is a lot of fun. It's run by IscariotPriest and you can see his journal entry about it here: [link] if you are interested. You just have to leave a comment to tell him you're joining and you're in. It is always a lot of fun.

Thanks for the lovely comment!
