David Taylor Poems

Ohh bliss what do you say,
do you have a voice today?
Where may I find your joy,
which I remember as a boy?
...

A quiet anxiety in the heart.
A stilling pause of contemplation.
A soothing stroll through the park.
An acknowledgement of your invitation.
...

Can I describe with words,
what has no features?
Can I describe with music,
what has no sound?
...

What could I give you?
Would you ask for the moon?
Do you need it, to feel you are free?
Some say moonshine is the way,
...

Quixotian tilts
at flailing arms
of turning things
in mental whirls
...

Dearest friend.
Live your life as a trapeze artist,
...

The twig underfoot cracks with a
feeling of wakefulness in its breaking,
making movements in our hearts.
The rustle of leaves above reminiscent
...

He sees you pretending not to look
And asks
“Do I tick all the boxes? ”
Well now let’s see
...

My head is in the stars
my feet deep in the earth
and my heart, it beats in you.
The answer often lies
...

That One far shining light of lights
Which lights the eyes of everyone.

That One far shining light of lights
...
