Jonathan Livingston Seagull

I have just written a poem for HubPages called

Who is Jonathon Livingston Seagull I have always been entranced with both the book by Richard Bach and Neil Diamond's musical interpretation.

Always, I believe, true happiness is flying with being your inner, higher landscape.

I'm An Artist Sensitive Bout My Ish Smile

I'm An Artist Sensitive Bout My Ish Smile

Hear the music in Nightflower's words! At times they flow, they scramble, they retreat, and then, then they quietly move on!

A great spiritual moment!

I'm Sorry...It's What I Do

I'm Sorry...It's What I Do

Here is one of the most dynamic poems I have read in quite awhile! (It is from Nightflower on Hubpages). The tantalising layers of energy secreted in the poem are magical, enigmatic and dramatically disturbing. For some strange reason, I think of the haunting, erotic nightmare landscapes of Salvador Dali's paintings.

Laying Of The Hands

Laying Of The Hands

This is a fascinating piece of information from Nightflower on HubPages!

Lost my Australian identity?

I have just discovered something quite bizarre. I am an Australian blogger, using a .com website admittedly. However, I have found that if I just "Google Australia", I am close to impossible to find. Yet, if I Google the world web, I appear easily on a range of my sites. Surely, with all my Australian tags, I may get some mention on the Australian Google!

e.g. If I Google "Poetry from the Mornington Peninsula", as I have on so many tags, there is absolutely no mention on Google Australia!!! In fact, to find new Australian poetry is very difficult indeed!

Does this mean I am inhibited by .com????

Yes, I agree that the internet is a great leveller of nationality! This is good news! Everyone is equal here! Until now, I believe only death could achieve such a feat! But surely some national connection - especially if you have bursts of promoting your "Australianness" - should warrant a crawler "pick up"????

Or am I just being web naiive????

The Stone Child I Am

I have just found out that I am a Stone Child - according to Cherokee belief. This means a child that is cast out. (Yes! I felt a very lonely child, an all round misfit but a dreamer of magic.)

I thought this meant I am "spiritually hard". I felt saddened, because I feel I am far from this.
But then I learnt that stone is made from the softest sand!

Happiness! Yin and Yang!

As the stars shine down

As the stars shine down on a sea of darkness...
And the moon peeps gently from a passing cloud...
To wink or nod his or her good night...
A soul waits...watching far out to sea...
Letting the gentle cooling breezes take hold...
The breezes linger...a soft carress...
Upon the warmth of a smiling face...
The soul knows...there will be a time...
A time when the sun warms the heart again...
A time when the heart will be whole...
And the body will follow...

For home is where the heart is...
And the heart cries to be home...

But the soul believes it will come to pass...
As the waves upon the shore...
There are things in life that are meant to be...
And dreams to be dreamt...
And lives to be lived...

And tears to be shed...

And love to be found...

Whispering thoughts on the wind

As the dream carries dreams on whispers...
To their destinations...
Just a sigh
And a whisper of longing...
A whisper of dream...
A glimmer of hope....
Standing...watching the waves rush to shore...
And watching the sand dance in the moonlight...
Bare feet...free...dancing
Cool sensation...watching the water trickle...
Like the touch of a guardian angel...
And the hands of a lost soul reaching across the distant shore...
Waiting for the time to be right...
And the sun to shine bright...
Warming the shadows of the heart...

A smile...the touch of a loving smile...
And the faint embrace of an extended arm...
Slowly a tear...a wondrous tear
Rolls down a half smiling half paining cheek...
Perhaps there is magic...
Perhaps dreams are real...
And as the sun warms the face...
All seems to melt away the tears...
And there is only the heart...loving...
Loving the feel of the wind...
The whispers on the wind...the promise of going home...
Home on the wind of dreams...

For a Little While

For a little while...
The music of the spheres lingered sweetly...

For a little while...
The oceans mirrored a smiling sky...
And the horizon seemed a magical allure to somewhere...

The heart danced to the gentle rhythms
Of whispering willows...
The soul sighed in the peace
Of the power
Of One...

For a little while...
Candlelight drowned the shadows...

For a little while...
Time was timeless...

For a little while...

Masks, Machines and Wines

Put aside the masks, the frowns, the angers
Put aside the jeers of judgmental views
Taste a cloud in the mists of dawning
And wonder on the melody of life...

The reels of machines cut circular patterns
Set to the rhythm of the careless dollar...
Cares and concerns cannot be eased
By luminous symbols on cold metal

Put aside the frowns, the angers, the masks
Put aside the tears of biased views
Feel the colours of a fading sunset
And wonder on the smiles of life...

Wines and spirits are the poor man's answer
To the riddles and mazes of existence...
When the wine is empty
And the numb moment passed
The challenge of tomorrow is still there

Put aside the angers, the masks, the frowns
Put aside the fears of troubled views
Sense the rainbow behind the storm
And wonder on the hope of life...

You are the Soul of My Soul

YOU ARE THE SOUL OF MY SOUL


A sleeping love
The embers of my winters
The soft showers of my summers
The dawn of my midnights
The gentle flame in my shadows


YOU ARE THE SOUL
IN
MY SOUL

Thank you Cranbourne!

I am wondering who you all are!

Students of mine perhaps????

If you are, it is good to see you are studying well over the Christmas holidays!

And if you are teachers, looking for inspiration? I warned you I was crazy! Now you have proof!!!

HAPPY CHRISTMAS!

Little Pics of Box Hill Part 2

Remember to validate your Metcard BEFORE you travel…

It was one of those days when the universe seemed a little bit rattled…

Melbourne skies were grey and dribbly…

My favoured pen had walked…

My $2 coin stuck itself in the Met machine…

The “up” escalator at Box Hill station didn’t feel like working today…

An old man wandered by me wielding a folded umbrella…
(the skies were still dribbling)
Muttering loudly to the air
In a language I couldn’t understand…

And ooooooooooo the seat I am sitting on is WET!!!
Great look for the interview!

And meanwhile the women ferret and groan
In the basket of buttons ON SPECIAL you know…
(with apologies to T.S.Eliot)

And a young girl in pale blue
Carried a HUGE black plastic THING
Under one arm
SUPERBAT
Glowed the lemon-lime sign…

And a sign on plastic – over a suit in a drycleaner’s read…
BROWN GOUGE
I am sure I am conjuring all the wrong images!
I must be!

Now the skies are letting it all hang out!!
Please!!! Let my umbrella open!!! Please!!!
WOOHOO!! The universe ain’t aimin’ at me today!!!
I’M OK!!

Return Journey…

I’ve found an underground walkway
Beneath the busy road…

The “down” escalator works quite well at Box Hill station…

And oooooooooooo the seat of my pants is DRY!!!

Little pics of Box Hill

LITTLE PICS OF BOX HILL ( a real place in Victoria, Australia )
Monday 9th February 2004

1. stop…look…and listen…
Two little girls holding hands…
Smiling…
Waiting for the lights to change…
One little girl’s hand held the hand of a man…
Quietly smiling in the shade of his akubra…
He was in a wheelchair…

2. Hecuba…Where are you? OR Nameless Limbo
I visited the dreaded “soup kitchen” today…
Splish and splash………What are they?
Onomatopoeia...
And similes and metaphors………What’s the difference?
Easy!……The captain is like a dog……Simile…
The captain is a dog……Metaphor…
But what if the captain really IS a dog?
Well…I guess…That is just……Fact…
(The English teacher in me glowed with pride and laughter…)
(But the junior chef hadn’t finished with me yet…)
You MUST network……It’s the done thing now…
They get paid to be networkers…so I guess it has to be done…
How many resumes you got?
They’re all school resumes…slight differences…
Every school likes to brew its own recipe…I have 20!!… So far!!!
TAKE ‘EM ALL!!!…Don’t worry about the frown on the network brow…
HAVE FUN!!!

(N.B. “soup kitchen” is a euphemism for Centrelink…the place where the unemployed stagger)

P.S. Ta Robert!!!…By the way…meant to ask you…
Your coffee cup…
Has a saying…
Why is it in German?

3. Stickability…
A film crew…
Small…
Looking like a motley
Bunch of black sticks…
Taking shots of some poor gaudy clown…
(poor because it was a bit hot today for a clown suit)
OUTSIDE

Old Legends

Australia is a vision of people...growing together...but burdened with
Old legends from other lands and lifetimes...
Other dreamings...
Sighing...
Stumbling into tomorrow...

We have no legend that is Australia NOW...
The spirit of Blue Mountains
And Sapphire Coast dreamers...
The old soul of the Gold Coast...
Sunshine...
Adelaide Hills...
Secrets of Yarra wanderers or Margaret River wines...
Or Ghan travellers seeking the heart of midnight...

No soul of living...

Australia has the beauty for the camera eye...
Tasmania...Eden memories of our natural state...
A feast for the visual senses...

But where...
Where are the lyrics of our song...
NOW!!!

Sometimes...

The room is ablaze with smiling lights…
Sensual forms and slow rhythms…
Music for dancing dreams…

Alluring eyes…

Sometimes…
It is easy to wander in wonder…
In the glamour of possibility…

Sometimes…
The rush of want and desire…
Shadows the tiny glow…
In the dark corner…
Watching…
Waiting…

For the strings to play

A special heart song…

Musings on Pink Floyd's lyrics - "Division Bell"

DIVISION BELL - Pink Floyd
Did you ever realise what you had become…And it was not only me you were running from…The rains fell slow…Down on all the roofs of uncertainty…And did you know…I never thought you would lose that light in your eyes…Marooned…On the day the wall came down…The Ship of Fools had finally run aground…Promises lit up the night like paper doves in flight…Now frontiers shift like desert sands…While nations wash their bloodied hands…Of loyalty, of history, in shades of grey…And all but the bitter residue slipped away…slipped away…I’ve spent too long…On the inside out…My skin is cold…To the human touch…This bleeding heart’s not beating much…Extinguished by light I turn on the night…Wear its darkness with an empty smile…I’m holding out for the day…When all the clouds have blown away…I’m with you now…Can speak your name…Till we can hear…Ourselves again…
Beyond the horizon of the place we lived when we were young…In a world of magnet and miracles…Our thoughts strayed constantly and without boundary…But the ringing of the division bell had begun…There was a ragged band that followed in our footsteps…Running before time took our dreams away…Leaving the myriad small creatures trying to tie us to the ground…To a life consumed by slow decay…Looking beyond the embers of bridges glowing behind us…To a glimpse of how green it was on the other side…Steps taken forwards but sleepwalking back again…Dragged by the forces of some inner tide…
The dawn mist glowing…The water flowing…The endless river…High hopes…A world of magnet and miracles has slipped away…slipped away…The grass is greener…The light is brighter…The taste is sweeter…The nights of wonder…The ringing of the division bell has begun...


Today I found Pink Floyd…or perhaps Pink Floyd found me…
Inner tides on the same naked sea…
Of cramped wonder and frozen answers…
Sailing in motley tune with Nowhere to Fly...

New Moon…
Dark portal …
Waiting for some Time Traveller Spirit…
Some yesterday…
Some tomorrow…

Venturing the secret chamber…the quest for the Hall of Records…
Just a diary of possible old memories of Atlantean mysteries
Embedded deep in Egyptian walls…
But I know the Sphinx still smiles…

The precious passport is close…
For the first time I will see my certificate of birth…
And Canada seems but a magical smile away…
The grass seems greener…
The light seems brighter…
The nights of limpid magic have begun…

(Written just before my first venture overseas in a beautiful northern October autumn)

True story of a first female student at Melbourne University

Melbourne University proudly presents…the first woman to attain a degree in these auspicious realms…But don’t you just love to find another side to a story…AND WHAT A STORY…

At the age of seventy she trundled along…
To capture her own special driver song…
Nervous as buggery…
Prayed for skullduggery…
And quaffed a bottle of brandy to help her along…
Sitting tall and straight
Beside her testing mate…
She appeared cool and confident and controlled…
The licence was hers…
She made not one driving err…
But her walk was more a wobble at the gate…

Rhoda should have been on stage…
A laugh for any age…
She could blemish sacred icons with a smile…
You could not take offence
To this woman of no pretence…
City slicker with a dash of country style…

She could booze and smoke with the best…
And intercourse with the rest…
Be it book or bed
Mind or body stimulation…
Life was meant to be fun
To this woman of the sun…
Not a tangle of protocol complication…

But I could only smile from afar
At this female star…
She loved my older brother far more…
One Christmas I remember he received an expensive watch…
My watch was just lonely by the door…
My brother had the brains and a sense of going somewhere…
I was the rebel wanderer…
Unsung music in my soul…
I so yearned to be
A less shadowy me…
But Rhoda simply found my light poor…

Don’t get me wrong…we could talk…
Rhoda and I…
We could laugh at the world till we cried…
Yet never once did I feel
Any touch of real
Closeness…
Love and pride…
And yet…
Behind laughter and bravado and living for life…
(And the world survived 92 years of Rhoda)…
There may be a well of secret sadness…
And sometimes…
Sadness has a unique way of bringing souls
Together…

Katrina was a troubled little girl…
Adopted by her mother…
In turn adopted by her grandmother…
Her grandmother Rhoda…
Katrina danced through just a fragile five years
Of music…
“Animal Crackers in My Soup”…
Katrina loved to sing and dance…
And we all loved her…

But our time of loving her here on earth…
Was just a tiny whisper…

Rhoda laid a child to rest…
With a simple headstone…
“Katrina”…

35 years passed before I could face “Katrina”…
I could not walk there alone…
So I took Rhoda…in my heart…with me…
Gently I cleared a space for Katrina to dance and sing again…
I wanted to feel Katrina’s joy…
I wanted to share Rhoda’s happiness…

One day…I took Rhoda’s daughter with me…
You see…Rhoda’s daughter had lost “Katrina”…
Never knowing where she sang and danced now…
We talked of making a more detailed identity for “Katrina”…
But her “mother” said no…

Perhaps I was disappointed…
Perhaps…

Don’t get me wrong…we could talk…
Rhoda and I…
We could laugh at the world till we cried…
But just this once did I feel
A special touch of real
Closeness…
Love and pride…

For Travellers

Beyond the threads of Time
Is the realm of the Endless Spirit…

Remembering painted clouds
Haunting the horizons of seascapes…
Dreaming of deep valley lights
Awakening the soul of darkness…

But the Endless Spirit is
A Wanderer…
A Rider…
A Seeker…
Waiting to live a life
Again…

Far away…

An island…
A mountain…
Last warmth before lands of ice…
Whispers of Alchemy from the Huon…
Stony Ground…
Land’s Edge…
Dark Wind…
Voices
On a harp and a dulcimer…

Or
Golden fields…
Laced with the smiling kiss of breathless skies…
Mountain lakes…
Blessed with the secrets and colours of Inuit legend…
A northern land…
Of northern lights…
Autumn dreaming…

Or
Nature’s somewhere beyond the southern seas…
A land of sultry summers, ancient forests, wild coasts
And winters draped in mystical snows…
Sacred peaks embraced by sacred blue waters…
Celestine magic in the mist…

Beyond the threads of Time…

To travel old journeys…
To re-visit a moment…
To breathe new air…

To be the Endless Spirit…

Shakespeare is a man for all seasons

William Shakespeare is adept at playing the music of humanity.

The still, sad voice of an Othello
The procrastinating melody of a Hamlet
The devil-may-care bravado of a Macbeth
The mischievous gusto of a Portia
The simpering servitude of a Desdemona
The whingeing whine of a Lear

The magical dances of a Prospero
A love-struck Malvolio

Shakespeare’s plays appear to be dominated by male characters;
But Shakespeare merely adapted to a practice of his time.
Females did not perform in plays till the mid 17th. century
Hence males took female roles - even that of Juliet.

The characters in Shakespeare’s writings - male and female -
Are representative figures of humanity.

Shakespeare’s writings have weathered the erosive tides of Lethe
Because his characters stand recognisable

In any time and
In any place.

Shakespeare’s man is not the male absolute
But humanity absolute.

Test Post

I have made heaps of changes with page elements on my blog, but none seem to be recorded. They are appearing in my preview, (they have been saved) but not in the blog. I am wondering if I made too many changes, so my blog is fogged. Hmmm

We'll see if this goes through.

Video of "Homo Suburbiensis"

I created this video for my 2008 Year 12 English classs. Hopefully, it will give them an extra dimension of poetry appreciation. In the near future, I will present it with another music style. Perhaps it will help the students feel the poem in a different way.

Robert Kennedy writes on Australian Poetry

Poetry has lost its meaning - An Australian perspective
Robert Kennedy - posted 6 November 2007
http://www.culturewars.org.uk/2007-11/poetryaustralia.htm

Our daily newspapers are full of poetry. On average 16 articles a week appear in our Australia’s papers with the word poetry somewhere in the article. ‘Wow!’ I hear you say, but don’t get excited too soon! Only two of these articles ever have anything to do with actual poetry. The other 14 are about sport, music and business, in fact almost every subject you can think of - except poetry.

Being an enthusiastic poet and wanting to source as much information as possible about what is happening in the world of Australian poetry, I signed up to all the major online Australian newspapers to get their articles on poetry. I used the news story email alert function that most offer; try finding these articles in an actual newspaper! Interestingly enough, while the Google alerts I signed up to using the word poetry yielded almost only poetry - about 15 articles a day from around the globe, though mainly North American - from the Australian email alerts I received many articles, but few about poetry. It was almost a direct opposite to Google in fact. 10% of the articles from the Australian alerts were on actual poetry, while it was 90% with Google.

Sports stories were the majority of articles I received from the Australian alerts. Why? Because of that much-abused phrase of ‘poetry in motion’. Most of these articles were describing the sublime efforts of our nation’s sporting people. The other most popular hits were articles with the phrase ‘poetic justice’; these were crime and political stories. It seems almost a prerequisite for sports journalists, that when searching for a word to describe something as effortless or unique they always fall back on the word poetry. You’d think that with the suggested ever-declining readership of poetry that over the years the word poetry would also fall out of use. It appears that it is our newspapers that are keeping the word poetry alive.

The idea of what poetry is still seems to be alive, then, but for the most part, the word poetry is seen and heard in a sporting vernacular, not in the artistic - at least in Australia. How did it happen that the word poetry got to be about everything but poetry? Maybe poetry has found its level for our time. Not long ago Harold Stewart, Australian poet and co-author of the infamous Ern Malley affair said, ‘ours is an anti–poetic age’. This appears to be even more true today.

We all know, however, that since the birth of the internet there has been a groundswell in poetry. With all the writing communities, magazines, lists and general discussions about poetry, sometimes you’d think that this was all that happens on the internet. So why have publishers dropped poetry off their lists? Don’t they see all this action? If people aren’t buying poetry books, what’s all this poetry stuff happening online? Why hasn’t the amount of interest there is in poetry on the internet led to an increase in the production of poetry books? Instead, poetry seems increasingly confined to the internet rather than the mainstream media - except when invoked by lazy sports journalists.

How do we change this, and wrestle back the ownership of the word poetry to its rightful domain? I’d suggest that us poets (pretty good writers that we are) start submitting articles on the state of poetry in Australia to our nation’s papers. Write reviews on a poetry performance, a book, an event and get it into your local paper. There’s a great community of poets out there writing, doing incredible stuff and no one knows about it. If we want more people to read about what’s happening with Australian poetry, it’s up to us to help get it out there, perhaps even start our own poetry newspaper!
Robert Kennedy is an Australian poet and arts writer.

Comment: I dream of changing this perspective. I LOVE writing poetry, different poetry. Helium and this blog are my means of "getting it out there".

An Unusual Christmas Tree

This must be the most unusual Christmas tree I have ever seen.

"The 7-Foot Upside-Down Pre-Lit Christmas Tree Evoking a 12th century Central European tradition of hanging a tree from the ceiling at Christmas, this unique 7' pre-lit fir is inverted to ensure a smaller footprint for less-spacious areas, and allowing more room for the accumulation of presents underneath. Originally designed for specialty stores to display delicate ornaments using a minimum of floor space, the unusual tapering shape allows the tree to stand in places that do not accommodate a traditional holiday tree, such as between two armchairs or in a corner."

It is from Hammacher Schlemmer, claiming to offer the best, the only and the unexpected for 159 years.

Happy Christmas from Australia

I adore the symbolism of the sun. It could be Uluru!

More Favourite Christmas Quotes

"Christmas is a bridge. We need bridges as the river of time flows past. Today’s Christmas should mean creating happy hours for tomorrow and reliving those of yesterday."
Gladys Taber, 1899 - 1980

"I dreamed it was Christmas Eve,and while waiting for a green light I noticed the manger scene on the church lawn.It's all so overwhelming, this Christmas business, I thought.The shopping and singing and partying and gift-wrapping and Santa Claus and Jesus. I feel wonderful then guilty then joyful then confused.God help me, I thought. And the light changed, and the baby in the manger smiled."
Joe Hickman

"They err who thinks Santa Claus comes down through the chimney; he really enters through the heart." ~ Mrs. Paul M. Ell.

"It is Christmas in the heart that puts Christmas in the air." ~ W. T. Ellis

Christmas is Time for the Spirit

Christmas is a time to burn the diet
It is a time to banquet on sweetness and wine

Christmas is a time to share joy
It is a time to give unconditional love

Christmas is a time to turn off the alarm
It is a time to bathe in the lights of the spirit

The True Meaning of Christmas

The true meaning of Christmas lives on
Maybe a little like a fractured fairy tale
Maybe a little commercialised
Maybe a little painful
Lonely
Lost
For some
But
Like a still small voice
Buried deep in the sham and drudgery
There is still
A beautiful heartbeat
In Christmas

The goodwill of giving
The celebration of living
The breath of Christ within

Box a little of who you are
Wrap in the ribbons of your love
Tie with the bow of closeness
This is the gift of Christmas

Share time with the lonely
Share time with family
Just share loving time
This is the celebration of life

Feel the secret of namaste
Feel the spirit of the higher self
Feel the joy of being
Close to the first breath of Christ

The Yin and Yang of Christmas

Endless fields draped with the softness of white
Lonely trees garlanded with weeping crystals

Windows beaded with twinkling lights
Ribbons and wrappings and Christmas puddings

Voices stirring the songs of Christmas
Voices airing the spirit of Christmas

Endless sands etched with the cool of blue
Lonely trees sighing with burning waters

Windows beaded with twinkling lights
Ribbons and wrappings and coconut ice.

Voices stirring the songs of Christmas
Voices airing the spirit of Christmas

Endless hunger draped with the fear of tomorrow
Lonely souls aching with helpless tears

Eyes locked in empty lights
Chains and cells and haunted life

Voices longing for the songs of Christmas
Voices needing the spirit of Christmas

CHRISTMAS

Christmas is to be a little different this year. My children will be in another state. They love me, I know, but they are caught up in their own lives. I have learnt to accept that.

There will be no presents and no Christmas tree. Even Christmas dinner is a question mark right now. My working every day is simply not enough to stretch beyond basic living.

But that is not a sadness. I have the spirit of Christmas with me in the form of the man I love. (Cancer prevents him from working, so I earn for the two of us). Every Christmas spent with him is a gift I treasure. That is what matters about Christmas, sharing time with a precious person. He gives me all he has - his time, his care and his endless love.

I would not trade this man for all the money in the world.

Every day is Christmas. I can ask for no more.

P.S. I write this post for anyone not quite celebrating Christmas in a traditional way. There are blessings around. Be comforted! There are others like you! You are not alone! This is my gift to anyone who needs reassurance and peace.

HAPPY CHRISTMAS!

Bridge

Some summer moons ago
I lingered away holidays

Walking
Walking familiar drives
Walking to seek a new look at the small things
Missed in the daily haste of highways
Imprisoned lanes
And traffic lights

And there, tucked between gaudy facades
Of gummy colours and red hot sales
Was a park
A tall tall elm
And a bench and table
Tender coated shapes
Hunched over the table
Poetically tapered fingers
Lightly held
A bunch of cards

2 shadows playing bridge

I began to walk daily
To the park
Round the park's elliptic secrets
Through the park's dappling lights
And any time
The dews of morning
The glare of midday
The hush of late afternoon

Always
2 shadows playing bridge

But that was many summer moons ago

And today, a friend told me I should read a book called
"Geophysics for the Wandering Spirit"
A book lost in the dust left by
Gummy colours and red hot sales
But still there
A tiny crystal trapped in the web of progress
Waiting to be discovered

The book was written by some guy with a PhD in Geophysics

Who loved to play bridge
