Freedom


How amazing is it that our minds have the power to create from a thought.  We can consciously chose to imagine ourselves on the highest mountain or in the deepest depths underground.   We are what we think!  Then in the vestiges of the dream world such imaginings continue, often exceeding anything our conscious mind could conjure.
My nightmares and dreams have so often brought a richness and clarity to my life once tethered into the realms of the waking state.

Freedom

​The dragons and, the unicorns fly
Within the recesses, of the sky
They arc and swoop, and dip and dive
To plumb great depths, and reach new highs
As mystical as they may seem
Is freedom found within a dream

For The Love Of Rhyme

Image
Expressions through my ‘ love of rhyme’  and short stories are my way of opening the window to the world and hopefully throwing some light out there for others to share and enjoy. Life is a journey that is unique for each of us, and I invite you now to accompany me, stepping back in time to those moments where my thoughts and feelings brought forward such expressions. I cannot promise anything from my work other than a varied, often colourful and descriptive, deep and meaningful, often questioning and nostalgic, with the occasional quirkiness and comedy thrown in for good measure.  One thing you can be certain of it is totally my perspective on life as I have experienced it. Enjoy! If you like this poem please feel free to share, as it may just be what someone needs to brighten their day.

Grandfather Tree

Grandfather Tree Visual Poetry This poem is about an Australian eucalyptus gum tree that I call Grandfather Tree.  I live but a stones throw away and am greeted each morning by the sun rising through the limbs of this great tree as it peeps over our garden wall. This magnificent old tree (which must be at least 200 years of age) is all that is left in our immediate area of the Gnangara Forest.   This is being slowly cleared and decimated to allow for homes like ours, which is extremely sad.  The tree is now a focal point of the local park surrounded by a small area of natural bush,  where families gather to play and walk their dogs. Whilst walking my black Labrador Jet, around the park he darted off into the bush, and so following him under the canopy of the trees arrived at the huge base of Grandfather Tree.  I decided to sit and glancing up the enormous trunk started taking a series of photos.  The longer I stayed the more I was ...

Sky Cries

Sky Cries The sky cries gentle drops of  rain That form spattering patterns upon the  ground Rivulets of water running here and  there Freely flowing to who knows  where A solitary bird up in a  tree Sings songs of gratitude to the  sky Mother Earth in all her  glory Receives these blessings to continue her  story © Cheryl Mary Coleman, 2016  –  Expression #6 31.8.16 If you like this poem please feel free to share, as it may just be what someone needs to brighten their day.
