UNSPOKEN LOVE Whisper not in my ear But in my heart Kiss not my lips But my soul Caress not my body But my mind Speak not in words But with your eyes Love not in gestures But with your spirit Then, and only then Will it be unconditional. peter Kelly copyright 2013
COLLECTION 9 Short Poems A double rainbow cried As it touched the path That leads to nowhere Where two lovers said goodbye ……………………………………….. Dappled sunlight through the ancient tree Formed shadows of memories And an old lady smiled Holding a framed photo to her breast …………………………………………. As the sun retired from view A thunderbolt of enlightenment Hiding behind a jealous moon Emerged from a deluge of ignorance ………………………………………….

ARROW OF SUNLIGHT My heart has no limitations My soul is an open book My eyes will tell my story Be bold and take a look My memory grows by living My hopes fly free in the sky My laughter is wild as an eagle Soaring through clouds on high My truths are written in marble My choices are chosen with care My knowledge comes from experience Of it all, I am willing to share My dreams I take from the spirits My future enfolds with each day My love is an arrow of sunlight Waiting to show you the way peter Kelly copyright 2012
A shadow asked when was the hour of destiny As honey hanging from a bright moon Formed a toxic juice in the corners of darkness And the chariots of Apollo rode through pools of blood ………………………………………………….. The sun caressed the silver sand Where footprints waited patiently To be kissed by the moon And lovers dreamt of kisses yet to come ………………………………………………… Guilty hearts in hiding Came out from tunnels of shame When a tsunami of bruised stars Sucked the salts of love From the teats of the moon …………………………………………………… Their eyes met as she emerged Glistening from the warm sea He knew then his love was unconditional And the Greek Goddess Aphrodite smiled ……………………………………………….. As the dementia of night yawns A broken heart slowly bleeds Suffering the pains of broken trust For words are for poets not lovers ……………………………………………. Under an ice and water moon An ancient guardian of dreams Descended the cosmic staircase To where leeches dined on lost love ………………………………………….. Beneath the bold moonlight Skeletons freed from politicians cupboards Danced in an ecstatic frenzy Listening to the music of war …………………………………………….. A lone reflection in a still pond Brought rippling memories Which the wind swept away With the falling cherry blossoms …………………………………………. Peter Kelly copyright 2013
COLLECTION 7 of short poems ---------------------------------------------------- Crossing a bridge into eternity A fading star heralds a grey moon Under which knights fight with broken swords To win the blue tongued jewel of truth ……………………………………………….. The moon kept its appointment With the dead timbers of a shipwreck As the waves threw a wreath back on shore To protect the virginity of a mermaid ………………………………………………… A silver lining for a black moon That refused to walk away Left the stars frightened and bewildered Floating on a leaf of thoughts ………………………………………………….. A cold full winter moon Killed the blooms of a white jasmine As an atomic illusion of guilt Swept across a frozen blue lake Of mankind's inadequate compassion …………………………………………… The moon harvesting power From the tears of dying stars Wore a veil of white oleander And a garland of mystic pearls As it kissed the soul that never sleeps ……………………………………………. Running against the wind A fragrance of exotic beauty Jumped through hoops of hope Reaching for a long distance love ………………………………….. As the horizon ate the summer sun He was intoxicated by the scent Of damp grass and her perfume And at this moment in time He wished to stay like this forever ……………………………………..

A BLOSSOM FELL Upon your lips a blossom fell to bring my heart to you hold it close so you can smell the perfumes you once knew. Feel the breeze upon your face my kisses it will bring touch your cheek in sweet embrace allow your heart to sing. Hear the whisper of the wind it tells how two souls meet that is how you soon will find that place where two hearts beat. There is no I but only we true oneness as on high where spirits cry to set you free come join me - we shall fly. Peter Kelly copyright 2009
COLLECTION 6 of short poems Under the hot afternoon sun She ran to where he waited Leaving the wheels of a red bicycle Spinning wildly on the grass ………………………………………. Stars reflected on the jigsaw pieces Of a discarded second hand heart Waiting hopefully for a healer To be pulled from a magicians hat ……………………………………….. Tense folds of whispering clouds Rested in the pillow of a twilight sleep As the visible became invisible In the hearts of waiting children ……………………………………….. Love on the train to nowhere Slept as the sun said goodbye And the moon displayed its beauty Whilst dreams vanished into the wombs of time ……………………………………………. A two headed snake Sitting on a lost cause Watched a landslide of fiery lava Running down the tongues of politicians …………………………………………….. Under the stars and a new moon Two lonely people came together And love ran from the shadows As he gave her a red rose …………………………………………… The band played under the stars To an audience of one And the singer was silent As the soldier said goodbye …………………………………………… Dreams of expectation danced by moonlight As the silence of knowledge awakened Without any conditions or limits And the poet in chains fell down …………………………………………………
Beneath a cloud filled angry sky Where wisdom was but a smooth rare breeze No one questioned the answers As the wine turned into water ………………………………………………….. Moonlight on frosted Ash trees Stole the shadows of monsters From the feet of destiny Leaving the umbilical cord of hope Running wild with wolves …………………………………………… An owls hoot hangs in the air As the fading orange sun is left Scratching on the skin of light And the plumes of green peacocks turns gold …………………………………….. peter Kelly copyright 2013
It is said in many seafaring circles that the spirits of those lost at sea are passed on to live within the whitest of seagulls, and so I give you : - THE SNOW WHITE SEAGULL Tell me snow white seagull Whose spirit do you hold A one eyed, bearded pirate Or a captain brave and bold Maybe, someone in uniform Another victim of the wars A lonely daring yachtsman Who never made the shores Tell me snow white seagull Do they tell their tale of woe Of ships upon the hidden rocks Or struck by an iceburg flow Maybe a lovely titled lady On a cruise to far of lands Another ship that disappeared With all passengers and hands Tell me snow white seagull Whose spirit do you hold Could they be from the Titanic Or a Viking ship of old A fisherman who floundered Beneath some giant wave Or shipwrecked by the sirens Dragged to their watery grave Tell me snow white seagull Of this spirit that you hold Is he from a Spanish galleon That was taking home the gold Maybe some deep sea diver Seeking treasure down below Or the pilot of an aircraft Shot down many years ago I’m hoping snow white seagull That you treat your spirits well And carry them across the waves To where the mermaids dwell So I shall sing the sailors song For all those that still sail free And for all the ones in peril On the stormy windswept sea peter Kelly copyright 2013
Sorry for the small text, I'll do better next time.
# COLLECTION 2 of short poems Who will sit on the sapphire throne
When the moon elopes with the sun
Leaving the mermaid sleeping
On the dark rocks of jealousy
………………………………………….
Touched by the moon
She picks up a blue rose
And gives it to a leafless tree
As violins in the dark
Lie waiting for Spring ……………………………. Forgotten love on a single rough paper
Will be dragged from the poets basket
To be reborn in ink ………………………….. Laughter flickered between them
Like Summer lightening
As the fireflies danced
And the moon swam
On a dry river bed …………………………… The stars sang in silence
As the moon left a wreath
On the tall stone cross
For another lost warrior …………………………… A seagulls scream hangs in the air
As the first ray of sunlight starts flirting
With the dew drops on a wet rose
………………………………. The moon said I will come again
For when the curtains are only part drawn
Indelible tattoos flutter on my breast
As I suck the stars for a taste of love
……………………………. There was something in her eyes
that said what I was listening to
could not be heard,
but I was listening to the stars.. …………………………… peter Kelly 2013 copyright
