A glance of eternity, whispers in the dark
Falling snow flakes glistening like diamonds
Fractals of colour collide in my inner eye
The forest breathes with me
It's alive just like us
The tree's speak as the earth growls
A Hidden network beneath our feet communes with the life that breathes above.

Silent Transition
A poem about the unburdening of emotional pain.
Dig up your pain, and…
Give it a name,
Do not assign judgement,
Lay down your ego tame,
Watch in silence and enjoy the view,
Sit in peace, take a pew,
Hand over your negative feelings,
Now stand up and sigh (phew)!

Haikuna Matata
Not sure if this officially qualifies as a ‘Haiku’ but I like it anyway….
Haikuna Matata
Leaves fall
Autumnal crunch bites the ground
Slowly fades to winter

Wonderland
The Rabbit Hole
Falling into the Abyss,
Free from negative thoughts and chatter,
Stay for a cup of tea,
But don't entertain 'The Mad Hatter'.

Panic Abiding
A short poem about anxiety/panic attacks.
Foggy field of vision
Vertigo inertia
Racing heart
Racing thoughts
Foggy Field of vision, still it distorts
Warps
Reality falls
Ungrounded
Lost
Spaghetti legs hits the ground
Can’t hear any sound
Just muffled under water
Heart beats in 7/8
At bpm 138
Can’t focus
Can’t see straight
Please help mate
