Do All The Boys
Fall off cliffs, into oceans
And get taken with the water's motions?
Fighting for life in face of death,
Drawing from you their fate-sealed breath.
Feeling cold through sea-cold stares,
All the weight if your water bears.
Sending men, knees first, to floor
Drowned in you forever more.

A Song for a Spring
Sky colour of hell, chase bonfire smell,
Autumn greets winter, orange leaves tell;
Burning red ochre on amber through gold:
Swirling warm colours hide dark winter's cold.
Biting and fighting, wind whistles and weaves,
Tightening up scarves; swashing leaves, swaying trees.
As red bleeds to white and the bright leaves the sky
The light fills the soul to see nature's strength die
And spark a rebirth; vernal and new
That burns through the sky and scorches it blue.
The beauty of life reflects heaven above,
In the darkest of seasons, take comfort in love.
