MAGIC of the MOUNTAINS



BEN NEVIS (SCOTLAND) AWESOME IN WINTER

The MOUNTAINS of Britain are magnificent
SCAFELL PIKE (England) pinnacle of the English Lake District
SNOWDEN (Wales) mystical summit of the principality
BEN NEVIS (Scotland) training ground for UK Alpinists
SLIEVE DONARD (N Ireland)  home of the "Little People"

What is it about Mountains 
that is so so alluring ?
Their majesty ~ their loneliness
Their ruggedness ~ their peace
or the feeling of being nearer Heaven ? 

All Human Life is there ~ all nationalities
CHILDREN  getting their first glimpse and grip of rock
TEENS  fearless and keen to show off their skills
FAMILIES  enjoying the Mountains together
SERIOUS Fell walkers ~ SUICIDAL Rock climbers
GERIATRICS  making one last pilgrimage to their 
beloved Mountain Peaks ~ slowly but surely !
POTHOLERS ~ who climb down instead of up !

There is a MAGIC in the MOUNTAINS
and the TOPS offer much more excitement
and satisfaction than the average topless beach !

Thanks for reading ~ hope you get to the mountains this year

IVORY TOWER



ALL INTELLECTUALS DREAM OF AN IVORY TOWER

IVORY TOWER  a reclusive place where Intellectuals can
VISIT or STAY  to indulge in intellectual elitism ~ away from
OUTSIDE INFLUENCES  which would interfere with their
RUMINATIONS  on things esoteric and meaningless ~ Would
YOU LIKE  to spend your life in an I V O R Y   T O W E R ?

TASTING LIFE  inside an Ivory Tower is a singular privilege
ONLY AVAILABLE  to the elite and very difficult to describe.
WE LIVED  ate and breathed inside the Tower and all our
EXPERIMENTAL RESEARCH  in Chemistry was ephemeral
RESEARCHING  making myriads of meaningless molecules ! 




Indian Researchers in Physical Chemistry


Thanks for reading ~ The poem is in the form  of an Acrostic

WITH ME ~ TODAY ~ IN PARADISE !



TO THE DYING THIEF ON THE CROSS 
JESUS  SAID  "Today you will be
with me in Paradise !"  A Thief !
in Paradise ! Unthinkable !

OK The Thief did not deserve
to go to Paradise ~ But JESUS
had just made it so possible
by dying for him on the CROSS.

CHRISTIANS all have this assurance
that on the DAY we DIE we will ....
be with JESUS in Paradise.
'Cos by FAITH we have ETERNAL LIFE !

LORD !  Think of me in your KINGDOM !
Today you'll be with ME in PARADISE !

DANCE OF CRYSTAL MOON FAIRIES




DANCE OF THE CRYSTAL MOON FAIRIES
When you may ask did I see them
Where you may ask did I see them
You may so ask "Did you see them ?"
I am used to scepticism
Because only few are privileged
To enter the Crystal Moon Realm
And even fewer to have the
Capacity to see the Realm !

It was many eons ago
Inside the Sacred  Dimension
Of the Crystal Moon in a trance.
I know that I saw the Fairies
And I know that I saw them dance !


Thank you for reading this 9 5 Sonnet
and sharing my love of CRYSTAL MOON

MAGIC MUSHROOMS ~ ELEGANT


MAGIC MUSHROOMS ~ FLY AGARICS IN THE ENCHANTED FOREST

FLY AGARICS ~ QUEEN OF THE FUNGI
So so pretty and so so elegant
It is a tragedy they are so lethal.
Just think how lovely they would look
Fried with tomatoes and eggs and 
smoked bacon on the breakfast plate !

I love fungi they look so so mystical
in their natural surroundings.
Mushrooms collected fresh from the field
taste so much more appetising
fried for breakfast or in soup or a stew
than those bought in plastic boxes in the Mall.

Always be on the look out for edible fungi but take care 
the prettiest (like ladies) always extract the biggest price !

This POEM is in the form of a 6 6 2  "free verse" sonnet.

Thanks for reading ~ please comment ~ LOL JAMES



FULL ENGLISH BREAKFAST ~ WITH BACON ~ EGGS ~ SAUSAGE

BARAK OBAMA ~ Second Term



B RILLIANT YOUNG LAWYER  Elected President of the USA in 2008
A N  AFRO-AMERICAN  and a Man of the People. He supported CIVIL
R IGHTS  in Chicago with his wife MICHELLE (also Lawyer) who was
A DESCENDENT of a SLAVE. He seeks equality like MARTIN LUTHER
K ING  assassinated  in 1968 because of the Civil Rights Movement.

O BAMA  has pledged in his second term to address inequalities in the
B ASIC PROVISION  of  Education ~ Health Care ~ Welfare and also to
A DDRESS  the American Gun Laws ~ which are not appropriate for a
M ODERN  Mechanised & Technological Society but a Frontier one !
A MERICA  needs a President like Barak Obama please support him ! 

Thanks for reading ~ please leave a comment ~ LOL BABY PANDA.




BARAK & MICHELLE OBAMA WITH DAUGHTERS MALIA & SASHA

FRACTAL RAINBOWS ~ AWESOME


RAINBOWS ARE ALWAYS THE SAME ~ R O Y G B I V
Always the same colour sequence ~ or reversed
and yet ~ their location is always different !
Whether in the sky or conjured up by a prism
or bevelled glass or a bubble or layer of oil
That's why I love rainbows ~ they are so sensuous
but also so transient and ephemeral !

FRACTAL RAINBOWS  are pigments of fractal art
imaginations of the fractal artists mind.
The one above is cubist and very 3D
The one below ~ e en forma spirella.
Both forms give an extra dimension
to the spectrum ~ and enhance and accentuate
the myriad of subtle shades within any rainbow !


This poem is a "free verse"  7 7 sonnet

SUNDAY MORNING DAWNING



SUNDAY MORNING DAWNING ~ in the snow
Forget the car it's not too far
Put on our boots and go !

SUNDAY MORNING DAWNING ~ Praise the LORD
The Church is warm and so inviting
There's hymns to sing and Psalm reciting
Were just a few ~ we fill the pew
but heaven's our reward !

SUNDAY MORNING DAWNING ~ The Vicar's always there
And what is more he lives next door
and just jumps off his chair !

SUNDAY MORNING DAWNING ~ snow will never daunt us
We cross the graveyard in the snow
and hope that they won't haunt us.

SUNDAY MORNING DAWNING ~ hear the bells Ding Dong
And if it doesn't snow no more
we'll be back for Evensong !


Church in the snow is always fun and always
a snowball fight with the choirboys !


Thanks for visiting ~ LOL James   

YOUR LOVE IS LIQUID LOVE


YOUR LOVE IS LIQUID LOVE
My heart can hardly hold it
My mind it can't control it
It's wicked ~ liquid flowin' 
Fillin'  chillin'  growin' 
Your love is liquid love !

Your love is liquid love
It's cool it's quaint
It pours like liquid paint
It drenches me ~ It quenches me 
It drowns me an' surrounds me
Your love is liquid love !

Your love is liquid love
It pours like Summer rains
Into my heart and through
My arteries and veins
Through body and then back again
Your love is liquid love

Your love is liquid love
And in your love I'll drown
To smile again it's makin' me
Where once I used to frown
 Your liquid love is shakin' me
YOUR LOVE IS LIQUID LOVE !

SNOW ~ MAGIC TRANSFORMATION


SNOW ~ MAGIC TRANSFORMATION


YESTERDAY ~ Our Bridge was drab
and Oh so grey
Oh I remember yesterday !

But now the snow
has come to stay
all the drabness swept away
Oh I remember yesterday !

Why it had to snow
I don't know ~ it came to stay
in the night ~ sparkling white
no longer drab and grey
Oh I remember yesterday !

This ~ our Bridge of Love
was drab an' grey like a turtle dove
but now the snow has come 
like a white fur glove
Our Bridge of Love ~ no longer grey
Oh I remember YESTERDAY !

Thanks for reading ~ the poem was inspired by a perfect photo of
OUR BRIDGE from my Girl friend ~ KATANIME ~ LOL ~  BABY PANDA

SHINE on HARVEST MOON ~ Flow Poem


SHINE ON  sweet Harvest Moon
Moon looks twice her normal size
Size that gives us some idea just how big. 
Big for a planet ~ big enough for her role.

Role of causing tides and night illumination.
Illumination of the night sky is important
Important where the is no street lighting.
Lighting the night sky the Moon is a welcome sight.

Sight of the Harvest Moon shows it to be orange.
Orange because of light scattering as it rises.
Rises in the Autumn Equinox ~ time of Harvest.
Harvest Moon we salute your awesome beauty !

Thank you for visiting ~ I love the Harvest Moon.

Comments welcome

In a Flow Poem each new line begins
with the end word of the previous line.    


ANGEL of the CRYSTAL MOON



ANGEL OF THE CRYSTAL MOON

The CRYSTAL MOON is precious to the Earth
She must be protected at all costs from damage.
Since the Industrial Revolution the Human Race
Has shown little concern for Planet Earth ... and
Ha shown itself to be capable of colonising the MOON !

The composition of moon rock is similar to earth rock.
However if considerable quantities of rare metals ...
Such as Gold  Silver  Platinum Chromium and Copper
were found on the Moon ~ we would soon exploit them. 
The Moon would be regarded as a International Mine !

The Moon is far more important than that and it is vital
To life on Earth because of the functions it perform 24/7.
The role of the Moon Angel is to protect the Moon at all times
And prevent Humanity from carving it up as a Mineral Resource !


This poem is written as a free verse  5 5 4 Sonnet

Help us protect not only Planet Earth but the Moon also !

Thanks for reading ~ this poem is dedicated to Crystal Moon.

VENICE CITY of DREAMS


Ahhh Sweet Venice ~ City of my Dreams
I ponti e I canneli e I vini e I gondoleri
All etched forever in my memory ~ the sights
The sounds ~ the scents ~ the savours ~ the senses !

Ahhh Sweet Venice ~ City of my Dreams
The skill of the Glassblowers in Via de Vetrii
The shapes conjured from fluid globs of glass
Horses  Gondolas Angels Saints toto italiani ! 

Ahhh Sweet Venice ~ City of my Dreams
Hand in Hand with my Sweet Anime Girl
Strolling on the Ponti Vechio ~ Dreaming together
Snuggled sleepily in the bows of the Gondola

Ahhh Sweet Venice ~ City of my Dreams
That was almost three decades past ~ youthful loveliness
But in my heart it was but yesterday ~ and my heart knows
That one day we will again savour your delights ~ TOGETHER !


PASSING UNDER THE BRIDGE TOGETHER 1988

I hope this poems revives memories of VENICE
One of the Worlds most sensuous cities.
