Just in time

-
I dream't one night that I had taken a fall
Spinning as I plummeted
Out of control
I fell from a mountain
From way up high
From then on my friends
I was sure i would die.

As I fell, the mists parted
The green land below
Rushing towards me

Not soft and inviting
But harshly defining
Sudden and bold

 Downwards I rolled

The green lands exploded
Coming up soon

They were all that I could see
Straight ahead
And
Peripherally

The sky now a memory
Of the few left to me.

Arriving too fast
The imminence of endings
I breathed in my last

The danger in falling
From such a great height
Adrenaline proxy
Futile attentions
Secreted
Inside

Just at that moment
Before the pain arrived
The alarm clock awoke me
Hearing,
In life


Prologue:

They say dreams are worries
Unravelled inside
Symbolic representations
Of anxieties you hide

I once dreamed of love
The purest in form
A woman, tall and slender
Who wanted my all

Though not much to give her
She accepted 'Just Me'
Sparkling eyes watched
As we joined in desire
In comfort we follow

Licking flames from the fire

This dream
Is now lucid
Arriving in life
The images of falling
Erased by my wife

The soft sand ridden muddy path Under my feet Is cushioned for me by sturdy black boots Sloppy, slick slimy navigating as every part of my leg plays a part in keeping me upright Sinews twist, the cramping ageing muscles uncomfortably held in kilter Heading for home Light retreats The ever arriving daily dusk clocks in I can't see the car quite yet. This place takes me away But only for a short time Drudgery Routine Work Though enjoyable Wears at one Through time, burdened by the worries of others Chinks appear, cracks of darkness on a golden life Wandering, watching  twigs may snap Wind blown pine trees sing in high pitched terror Birds dart Rabbits unseen? But for borrows Buzzards soar A red kite adorned a fence post Squirrels elusive Watching Just in case I might see one race by Even in the periphery of either eye A busy head is a safe head? Freedom from worries Eating and gnawing Snatching at anything that will offset these thoughts Let th

Physgill. Watch the swiftly feeding swallow Sun outside But not it in the hollows Of the shrubs and the greenery Fresh cut lawn Hydrangea, Rose Honeysuckle aroma The fields with the peas, A sea of swaying green Moves like an ocean The sound of the trees Moved and being shaken By the summertime breeze Cattle in the drive way Pheasants shouting loudly The deer are cautious Barn owls swoop in darkness Caught by car lights Badger scurried across the road Foxes rare The game keepers gun. A lamb down a tree trunk Discovered by Rosalind Pulled out by a farmer Care for injured falconry Rescued for love Of all that was around us The freedom The tranquility The sea and the solway Not too far away The Glen with her garlic Appetizing rambling Down to the shore Where pebbles and boulders You arrive at the bay. The cave has a host A man in a smock Ninian the monk Later canonised Who sat in meditation Considering faithfulness Sheltered from harm. C

Anxiety threatens security Compounds the stress Optimism demands you be positive Outlook confounds dismay Should we expect failure? Love and laughter Or tears and hate Kindness follows you If you give of yourself without looking for consequence Receive in kind if luck prevails upon you A truth of life The Good of you honoured so You realise more of your worth When kindness favours you Avoid the scumbags They will drag you under Out of breath You cough and splutter True to your self The Air is clean Oxygen Not monoxide fumes. Plagued by misery Stuck in their own lives Choking on the misfortune of others They are sometimes victims Of a life less fortunate Adventurous Or cautiously treading Fearful of the world out side of windows Most going by are truly honest Wealth is determined Not by cash Abundance in caring For everyone Fills your wallet and your pockets Helps the old cover a draught Create a smile and a laugh Not a tear in hungry bell
