Alexander Thomas Poems

In the still time of the night,
With the day faded from sight,
I slide under my dream coat,
Faintly into twilight to float.
...

Out from the duct of the eye of time,
The slow trickle of a widening river of emotion,
Meandering from the dusty heavens sublime,
From the first drop into a boundless ocean,
...

We can be more than we are!
We are not this wavering image,
We are not this fleeting time,
We are not shallow words!
...

What is this power I kneel before?
Broken and in awe,
I am alone,
Before your throne.
...

True love is fierce,
In the fervent fire I melted,
Your heart too it will pierce!
With the sword it smelted,
...

My English rose,
Scent so seductive and sweet,
From dull Earth your beauty grows,
I kneel shrinking at your feet,
...

With bright dawn, birdsong, flora and dew,
And lambs and rabbits and squirrels too,
As all the world flourishes is as my love for you!
Our love springs and towers as the wild flowers,
...

Remember me when I was young,
When I stretched my arms out to all the places far flung,
To those sublime divine dreams I clung,
On that great love I was hung,
...

What gems do you carry? With what destiny
will you marry?
What treasure is underneath? What gifts can
you bequeath?
...

We are the wonderful ones,
The glorious ones,
The magnificent ones!
...
