I don't want wealth, I want a wealth of knowledge and experience to help me to be wise.

The Plan

The Plan

They say that not having plan is a bad plan.

A man without a plan, is a man without direction and purpose, this could be a dangerous plan.

Having a plan, but not doing the plan, is bad, but could be good, especially if the plan is bad.

The plan is working, some adjustments along the way, now this is sounding a bit more positive, a positive plan.

To plan a plan is important, step 1, 2 and 3, but don't let the planning for the plan become an plan in itself.

The plan could be simple, but it could be quite grand, but the plan must be able to be viewed from the start all the way right though.

So let's make positive plans, the bad one's can be screwed, I love tackling interesting one's and seeing them all the way through.

Friendship

My sympathetic ears sense your feeling and mood

Words are not always needed when we share space and time

Acceptance of each other's differences and opinions is healthy

The joy of sharing the days and time are a blessing

With strength we can calm each other's wild storms

Adjust the path of life that we have been wandering off

To say no is what friends can say with firmness and peace

Laugh oh so hard that our bones ache, and the tears drip

Without the complication of sex we live and speak with ease

Willing and wishing the best for both, may our friendship always keep

Dream Eagle

Dawn light somehow creeps into my eyes, or is it within my mind that it presents a rude interruption.

Stop, don't come in, I refuse, you must not come like this, go, yes go away. Please leave me, for an hour or even a moment more.

Your light maybe feeble, but the light I have in my eyes has a powerful  brilliance that has been with me all night. Turn out that pathetic light, my soul needs fire.

I feel the weight of gravity leave the souls of my feet, I have felt this many times before and I am calm, excited and thrilled, I know what destiny is.

The light is precious, words are not enough as I lift through the edges of the trees. The leaves crackle in the breeze as I rise at a near vertical  angle to gain perspective and distant images.

Thinking is not needed, I am not floating, I am flying, there is no sound, only the air born  movements that tingle my senses on every nerve ending. Ah this is to be alive, where I am, and what state, I really don't know or care, but the sensation and pleasure is royal.

Three dimensions I have felt when ocean diving, water below and above, but I am trapped by the constraints of my lungs and the strength in my limbs.

To rise from the earth, to breath with ease as the forests and the hills expose their exteriors that humans can never see. These three dimensions are without chains and I am a natural part of it.

Go, please go, the haze of dawn tweaks again in my peripheral vision, go, don't destroy this ecstasy.

I have lifted and flown for god knows how long, the feeling of time has no bench mark or measure, everything exists with a harmonious calmness.

My arms are not wings, there doesn't seem a need, my body as an object in the particle filled air feels naturally aerodynamic.

With gentle change I can adjust my body angle, to slow or to give speed, either are equal pure pleasure.

Unlike being footed on land, height does not have the perspective and fear of a shear, cliff precipice or a tall building panoramic platform. I am safe, safer than ever before.

The spray and the splashes of the stream run down the rocky crevassed mountain which drops into the coastal pool, I descend alongside, speed and ease with the droplets sparkling in my vision. Turning through the cathedral rock pillars the view of fields dotted with colourful flowers opens to my right. A welcome mattress pre-warmed by the sun.

Don't touch my eyes, no, you are invading my haven. Please leave me alone, you know I am content, does my pleasure trouble you so.

Music comes to my ears, not mystical but a modern piece of trash, I hear the dog bark, god its already 0635 and a new day has just started.

Each and everyday

Three things, each and everyday

Give me the ability to see and do what needs to be done.

Give me the wisdom to recognise and to concentrate on those things that are possible.

Give me the enjoyment to watch the amazing things that unfold from my endeavors.

Neptune's Garden

Come to me on your knees, respect, learn well and with eyes wide open I will let you play in my back yard.

The lessons are critical, the games start as fun, I will change the level of forces as you grow, don't be surprised when I hit you sometimes hard.

I let all come to my yard, the young, the weak and the strong, all are welcome to play for the day, my back yard is a wondrous place.

I protect many in my home, you may see just a few that inhabit with me, but there are thousands who rely on my care.

Unlike you, they were born here with me, they enjoy my world, a world in its own right, and my care comes very strongly to them.

Don't ever be a fool to think you know all about my yard, a few days of fun is not enough to protect you from harm, the lessons take years, if you come on your knees.

If you are stubborn, or maybe blind; if you can't put your ego aside, then your time in my yard will be limited to say the least.

Please embrace it all, there's so many pleasures to enjoy, share the news of what it brings and the treasures that it delivers.

But don't take me for granted, my wrath can't be measured by land mortals, I have seen you come and fall, only a few have survived and stand tall.

Bring peace with you to my house, I will double your endeavours.
