The Promise of Spring ignites
Passion’s flame and Summer’s heat
Sweet Memories of you, remain Forever Autumn
In the Winter of my lonely Heart
Such are the seasons of Love …
Category: POETRY
Intricacies of Love
What are thoughts of you
No more than fantasy
Falling leaves, golden brown
Petals carried on the wind
Soft Blossom on the breeze
Snowflakes melting on the heat of an outstretched palm
Such are the intricacies of unrequited love.
Star Crossed Lovers
When does the present become the past?
Late night music plays on the radio.
Memories tear through the illusion of the fabric of time.
I was never yours,you were never mine.
Where do old ghosts go,
I do not know.
They live and breathe in long forgotten poetry and rhyme.
Star-crossed Lovers are never destined to last.
Eily Nash ~ 2022

Tenebrous Tendrils
Darkness beckons
I hear Lilith’s call
Willingly Falling
Into the soothing deep
Velvet night beguiles
Enchants, revives
By Moonlight the pain
Of brittle, harsh day
Fades away.
Tenebrous tendrils
Drawing body and Soul
Into the Void
Inner Light
Re-ignites.
I am Home.
I am Whole.
Eily Nash ~2022

Driftwood
Bitter~Sweet Addiction
Bitter Sweet addiction of mine …
We were not destined to stand the test of time. You were the lust and longing coursing through my veins. You were my pleasure and my pain. For a while you were the breath of life, how bright passion’s flame did burn. To ashes and dust we must return. Spells like hearts can be broken. Goodbye, farewell. Know that I loved you well.
Eily Nash ~2022

Far Horizon
How many times …
Have I stood here
Alone upon a sandy shore
Watching the far horizon
Beyond an endless sea
How many times …
Have the waves rushed over me
Angry breakers pounding my heart
Yet I stand.
I withstand
Watching the far horizon
Beyond an endless sea
For life, in her wisdom teaches
Look way beyond the far horizon
Know the silent secrets of the sea
The waves that come rushing in
Can try but will never break me
For they have no choice but recede
To the far horizon
On the ebb tide
Of an endless sea
~Eily Nash

Lady in your Tower
Lady in your tower so high
Shard of glass piercing sky
Do you search for me below
Where the timeless river flows
Imprisoned in stone and steel
Who knows how you really feel
You have no wings to flee captivity
To sail with me upon an endless sea
~ Eily Nash
Midnight Sun
Come with me on butterfly wings and we shall kiss the moon. And dance upon the stars to the music of the Spheres. For you and I, my precious one, our eternal souls entwined in love, glisten like the midnight sun✨

Prisoner To Love
She gave him the keys to a hidden place, deep within the chambers of her heart.
No Angel from above was he.
Laughing at his wicked game, he pushed her hard, closed the door, took the keys and ran.
Fallen from grace, head bowed in shame, she lay bleeding on the forest floor.
No one heard her silent screams of pain or saw the tears falling, bitter rain.
Fooled by an adept of the dark arts, left alone, a sacrifice on the altar of love, a prisoner of her heart.

Winter of my Heart
In the winter of my broken heart, I lay down to rest in the harsh embrace of the cold, hard ground. I am so near and yet so far, whisper your name, but you do not hear. Alone with just fragrant fragments and memories of lost love. I watch the seasons pass like Blossom on the breeze from the cold comfort of my Earthbound home, here my English Country Churchyard.

I cried and I tried but I just can’t hold it in
All the pain
I scream when I dream all these thoughts in my head
They keep haunting me
Breathing
Breathing in these things
The clock on the wall keeps looking back at me
Why are you screaming
The hurt well I tucked it away underneath
Well I still feel everything
Crawl every time but you won’t see me
I’m hiding from me
All of the pain that feels you why you bleed
There’s time to breath
Breathing
Breathing in these things
Why does a heart start to bleed when it needs too much
Does it ever fade
Why do we love more than love holding onto it at all
Do you love the pain
Breathing
Breathing in these in things
Breathing
Breathing in these things
Breathing
Breathing in these things
Breathing
Breathing in these things

Forever and a Day 💞
It was such a pleasure introducing Chris and Randy to you dear Readers and I am excited they have agreed to regular guest appearances. Their collaboration is a poetic dance of romance, and brings much joy. I hope you enjoy the love! ❤️

Tell me the story of forever.. of the way it began introducing us to this final chapter speak to the how and why to the dream, our reality of lives to reconcile... ~cf * * * * * * * * * The reconciliation began as a final exit but the sun and moon had other plans The stars aligned under a cloudless sky So they chased every sunset- danced in the light of a lover’s moon. Now empty pages await the rest of this happily ever after to be written... ~RW

Shores of Love
Poetry is one of the sweetnesses of life, and it is my pleasure to share with you a sensuous poetic collaboration between two wonderful poets, and to offer a warm welcome to “Gossamer Threads” to Chris and Randy 💞

I am your sea and you, my shore My waves will always wash over you just as sure as the sun rises and sets All the granules of your sandcastle soul collapse into my undertow.. I undo the pillars of your fortress with each passing wave Sand and salt water dance together in an endless waltz leaving your thirsty shores quenched, until the next wave engulfs your surface.. Drink me in and push me away my waves are relentless, as is your thirst for them, endless... ~RW

You are my sea as I am the shore that waits for you to wash over me from the depths of your currents you reach me in waves that breach my barriers the cool of your water, craved as you fold over me, white capped feeling the force of each wave's pull-back in retreat, in succession, this dance that keeps me restlessly awaiting the next... ~cf

Two Rivers
Alone in London, I stand by Tower Bridge. Old Father Thames hears my thoughts of you and how deeply I am falling. Wise is he, takes them rippling on the current down to the endless sea.
Somewhere far away in a Northern land, you are standing too, on your bridge of stone and steel beside a Castle Keep. Do I imagine that I hear you calling and feel you reaching through the ethers for my hand?
Day is fading and our City lights flicker into life. Do they hear the music of the night? And meet with moon beams upon the waters where both our ancient rivers flow? What stories do they share and what secrets do they know?
Perhaps they speak of Lovers hearts taking flight to meet upon the Bridge across forever. A special place, lost in time, where we come together. In the heat of the night, two rivers meet and our bodies entwine to dance upon the glory of the Tyne.

Words Dance in Loneliness
She speaks
Words dance
In loneliness
She sings
No one hears
The lost song
She shouts
She screams
Lost in Shadowlands
Silence reverberates
In the caverns
Of an empty heart

Vagaries of Men
The Lords of Darkness and of Light sat down to dine, drink some wine, all on a moonless night. Up for discussion, the subject of Souls. It never grew old.
‘ Which are mine, who are thine?’
An age old theme arose again. They debated. Conclusion came, they agreed the same.
Humans were over rated. Their little lives need not be fated. Let them use Free Will, they will heal or harm, bring pleasure or inflict pain,cure or kill.
There is no celestial charm to cure the vagaries of men. Having thus concurred the gods refilled their goblets of nectar and wine once again.
Eily Nash (2021)

The Bodhi Tree
A solitary man, Siddhartha
Sat in the shade
Beneath the boughs of a
Benevolent Bodhi Tree.
In his heart he knew
The Light of Illumination
Shines from within
He who seeks to be free
From the illusions of Humanity,
Suffering and need caused by
Selfishness, negativity and greed.
In such quiet repose,
Knowledge slowly grows.
Silence speaks to He
Who bathes in Serenity’s Seas.
The Seeker who seeks
Keys to Earth’s Plane of Duality
Finds there is so much more.
Spirituality is there for those
With ‘eyes to see’ that
It is simply found in simple simplicity.

Gypsy Woman
I’d like to share for your delectable delight some smoky hot words from the pen of my talented Texan friend & writer, Randy … Enjoy!
I met a gipsy woman
Who lit a flame inside my heart
Which soon became a fire
That raged both day & night
She said her name was Scarlet
In a sexy velvet voice
Then she sang a song so sweet
My soul began to melt
Scarlet Fire
Red hot desire
Take me higher
Into your fire 🔥

Tears from the Moon

‘Why did my Prince leave me so?’ I searched the sky, looking for reasons why.
The Stars, one by one, put out their Light and tears fell from the Moon.
‘Princess, it is not for us to tell,’ whispered the West wind.
And I?
Shrouded in a blanket of the dark heart of night, could only cry.
For my Sin in loving him…
Still💔

Ink of Eternity
They look and wonder
At the mystery of us
And we smile
Secret smiles
For who could tell
Of a Love that crossed
The eons and ages of man
All dimensions of time
It is only when night falls
The Truth is revealed…
For the story of you and I
Is written in the ink of eternity
Only the Sky knows of
Gods who walk amongst men
And sit upon Star Strewn thrones.
Eily Nash ~2021
Power of Love

She had a special way with words, knew how to soothe his unquiet Soul. Written in velvet, wrapped in silk, the Truth fell upon his hungry ears. For with a magic touch, the woman knew just how to ease his fears. Was it witchcraft, he never knew. She smiled, for her power was so much more than the arcane arts.
Love heals all.

Silence of your Heart
Did you hope to hurt me
By the silence of your heart?
Your unsaid words
Speak loud and clear
There is nothing left to say
Except I will keep your secrets,
My dignity and my pride
Goodbye, My Dear…Goodbye.
Eily Nash ~2021
Smiling Moon

Long lonely miles of separation stretch across the wide expanse of time.Music plays. I close my eyes and sail on seas of dreams. Far from Southern city lights, dimming the clatter of party nights, and noise of it all. Somewhere, the sea washes upon a silent Northern shore. Two Souls meet beneath a smiling moon.
Eily Nash ~ 2021
Capricious Gowns
To be ..
The West Wind
Wild and free
Felt, yet unseen by Mankind
Blow where I will
Over gentle hills
Tumultuous seas
A soft Zephyr breeze
On fierce Panther Paws
Or …
A fixed Star
Adored from afar
Required to shine Bright
Illuminate the dark night
Until clouds gather
Illusions of Self shatter
Immutable Celestials look down
Unable to wear capricious gowns
Eily Nash ~2020
Wolf Song
I desire to run wild, run free,
Unleash the Wolf in me.
Howling a love song of pleasure and pain
To the cold beauty of a Midnight Moon.
Yet I remain a meek little lamb,
Grazing beneath heavy grey skies,
Lost in the safety of a flock of conformity.
Is that all that I am?

Burning Embers
In the dying embers of the year lay the lost hopes of fading dreams. From a spark to a flame will never ignite again. Desires grow old, burnt out in the rage of passion’s scorching fires. The last vestiges of searing heat, fated to become no more than ashes and dust. Love goes cold when left to tarnish and rust.

City Nights & Silent Shores
Did you think of me, as I did you on this Holy day?
Long lonely miles of separation stretch across the wide expanse of time. Music plays. I close my eyes and sail on seas of dreams. Far from my Southern city lights, dimming the clatter of party nights, and noise of it all.
Somewhere, the sea washes upon a silent Northern shore. I know I will find you there. I see you smile. Two Souls leave the world behind, to dance to the music of waves and wind, as they meet again beneath a smiling moon.

Only a flower Wasted away When the light has faded The taste that you give Want to walk want to scream want to break it Wounds they appear Locked inside in the darkness I fade like a storm when the rain gets cold My eyes out of focus All I see around me is nothing but a blur Bound to the broken So I Carry the pain until I fall Until I fall In the dark you can love, love in the dark you can love You can love When the night has faded Touched you within Haunt my dreams can you taste them Fading into the distance And this heart I feel it breaking I fade like a storm when the rain gets cold Felt my thoughts there drifting away So I carry the pain until I fall In the dark you can love, love in the dark you can love You can love In the dark you can love, love in the dark you can love You can love In the dark you can love, love in the dark you can love You can love When the sky has faded Broken it's only skin Scream out loud last breath it's taking Against the wall where time can't exist Your wrist are warn and bleeding Loving the scars embedded there Laugh out loud and you know your breaking Left alone to fend for yourself Trapped in fear your hands keep shaking Is there any way out of here So I carry the pain until I fall In the dark you can love, love in the dark you can love You can love In the dark you can love, love in the dark you can love You can love In the dark you can love, love in the dark you can love You can love In the dark you can love, love in the dark you can love You can love In the dark you can love, love in the dark you can love You can love You can love In the dark You can love In the dark © Penny's Scar

Immortal Kiss
In the dark heart of night, you feel her unseen Presence. The sensuous touch of an immortal’s kiss, rose petals falling on your skin.
She cannot be with you, so gently whispers words of love in a way you will hear, her poetry is written on the fabric of your dreams.

Snowflakes
Mesmerised by the beauty of a falling Snowflake, he caught her in his hand.
Trusting, the little Snowflake lay in the warmth of the man’s palm.
Slowly she melted to nothingness.
He smiled …
…and just put out his hands to catch more Treasures falling from a giving sky ❄️

Walk Away
She felt the absence of his heart
Long before he even realised she had gone.
Walked away …
Silently closing the door on the place
Where love did not live anymore.

A Poet’s Pen
The Poet took his words formed from delicate, silken strands of silver and gold, weaving them deftly into the heavy blanket of my infernal night. My Soul had grown cold, now the warmth of his Love wrapped me in Light.
Eily Nash (2020)

Eternal Night
Falling. Falling. Soft embrace of the velvet deep calling, calling. Leave far behind shores of pain. Warm waves of oblivion sweeping it all away. No need fight it, hurt never felt again. Down, down to sleep in endless seas of eternal night. And so I sleep…
© Eily Nash
Evermore

“I will always love you…”
A lonely heart cried out to the stars above as night came riding in, for she thought there was no one else to hear.
The Moon felt the pain of loss ripping through the ethers from a Soul searching, hoping, longing. She replied on the song of the wind.
‘Your Beloved is here in heaven with me, just a whisper away, in the place Love lives for evermore…Look!’
A shooting star blazed across the sky.
Tears fell.
Queen of Witchery

A golden crown upon my head
Clothed in a gossamer gown
I sit upon a silver throne
My palace is my heart’s home
I have no subjects, I am all alone
All cares, burdens, concerns unladen
For others sins, I have long atoned
From skies above the Goddess looked down
Upon her broken and lost Handmaiden
The Lady in Her mercy revealed to me
Her Majesty and Secrets of alchemy
Now I preside from the seat of my soul
I am healed and whole.
Queen of all Witchery
Eily Nash ~2020
I Could Write You…
I could write you into stories, poetry or ryhme.
Or I could say I think of you all the time.
I could say I love you, like the stars love the night.
Or how the Earth craves Sun Light.
Yet I keep the secrets of us locked in my heart,
Lest such things cause it all to fall apart.
Eily Nash ~2020
Faraway Eyes
The sun was high in the Summer sky, salt from the sea fresh on the breeze refreshed my tired and overwrought senses. My walk had meandered from the beach far below to the breath taking heights at the edge of the cliffs. It was time to stop and reflect for a while, maybe take a seat on some ancient stones, before deciding what to do.
Then I realised I was not alone.
I watched him sat all alone in quiet repose with only thoughts and memories for company. I wondered if he was lonely too? And tired of the game of life? Then decided he was not. For those nutmeg brown eyes held the wisdom of the ages and his gnarled face, like the bark of an ancient and proud Oak tree, wore the knowledge of the Sages. His aura was wrapped in a cloak of inscrutability.
I did not think he was aware of me standing there, his gaze was too far away, looking at sights I could not see. Some inner world of wonder and mystery.
A subtle smile played on his lips, like a butterfly kissing a wild meadow flower. Then he winked at me and said, “Come Child, hold my hand. You will see the magick that I do.”
His voice was grainy and deep and reassuring. Without hesitation, I took a seat beside him and placed my trust, as easily as I placed my hand, in his. His skin was surprisingly soft, not at all like the texture of rough weather beaten leather I expected it to be. He cupped my hand in his and I felt a jolt of electricity run up my arm and a bright light flashed like a starburst in my mind. A sense of extraordinary peace filled me. And I saw the wonder of it all…
A sweetness filled the air and I heard the Angels sing to the music of the Spheres. I saw Suns, Moons, Planets, Stars and spiral Galaxies. I saw they were all within me. Then I met with the Spirits of the Ancestors, all who had gone before me and the dancing light of Souls, and those yet to be. I saw me too, in the unending chain that all there ever was, and all there would ever be. I saw God and HE saw me.
And HE showed me from outside, looking in, the beauty of a blue planet, the beauty of the Earth. The song of the Dolphins and Whales, keepers of the secrets of the deep. The ebb tides of the seas throwing starfish and shells upon shifting sands and seahorses playing in the depths. Rivers flowing over pebbles, gravel and rock hewn from the ages, down to the embrace of the endless seas. I saw birds in flight, by both day and night, heard the screech of the Owl and sweet song of Nightingales that weep. Butterflies, Bees and creatures with wings taking flight. I saw forests and the Green Woods, fireflies, glow worms and dragonflies. Meadows and prairies, fields of gold and where the wild flowers grow. And then I sensed my self falling, falling and in fear I gripped his hand. I found myself in the caverns of the night, the heart of the Earth in the dark and the dirt. I saw primal pools of raging fire, craters, crystals and Salamanders and Elementals. And at its core, the Earth was raging, raw and made from a power that roared. I saw in a burning furnace, the foundry of pain on which was carved my name. In that moment I understood the terrible beauty of it all.
My tears began to flow, for me, for humanity. For now I knew the secrets of the elements, of Earth, of Air, of Fire, of Water. I also knew I had work to do, work the Lord had decreed for me.
A soothing mist filled my mind and once again I was falling, falling…into the Void. But now I was no longer afraid but filled with serenity and perfect peace. A myriad of colours began to swirl from the nothingness. I understood that from the void sprang forth the seeds of all potentiality. I had been given wings to fly free from my own self imposed captivity.
I heard a rush of Eagles wings and the beating of my heart.
When I opened my eyes I was alone, but would never ever be lonely. For in my hour of need when all I could see from the top of the cliffs was the freedom of falling into the deep blue sea, the Lord had sent an Angel to me. He had given me eyes to see. And now I truly understood, lived and breathed the magick and the mystery. I knew HE lived in me.

Thank you for reading!
Rebuke of Thunder
Blue skies of Summer torn apart, as storm clouds come riding in.
Time stands still.
Will we hear the rebuke in thunder, accept cleansing from the rain?
Gaia feels such pain, for her children have free will and may atone …
Or fall into the abyss of eternal sin.
I penned this little poem as I listened to the delicious sound of thunder rolling across the sky. Rain poured down over the beautiful plants and trees in my garden. I thought about the blessings of the Earth. All our needs are met. Yet what is it in a human that seeks to hurt where they could heal? Each other, our animals, environment, nature. Our birthright is as Co-creators but we are on the cusp of becoming the dark destroyers. We can reach for the stars or fall into the abyss. My heart breaks for us, what we have become and what we could be, for truly there is so much more than we can see.

Whispers…
And I loved him.
In that secret place
Where only the Soul hears the whispers of the heart.
And he?
I was no more the a safe space
A moment in time, shared.
I heard him cry in the wilderness.
Reached out my hand…
For a while he clung to me, but then feeling strong, he set me free…
And I?
Well, I could sink and die or just accept it was what it was.
Move on with my life, knowing I had loved…
Ohh… how I loved…
Him.
Eily Nash ~ 2020
All Alone
All alone…
I held the hurt, I held the pain and all their sorrows
I saw such horror, and tears that fell as bitter rain
I stood tall, whoever they were, I Protected them all
All alone…
With rocks and stones began building my fortress home
Wanting to shout, wanting to yell but who could I tell
I was not living, I was burning in hell
All alone…
The dreams shook me from my sleep
Mind Movies, play again, they never cease
There is no peace, the trauma runs too deep
All alone…
One dark day the storm clouds came riding in
I looked down from the Tower I had built so high
The edge of a precipice, I fall or find my wings and fly
All alone…
Saturated by sorrow, I could hold no more
My Tower was now a prison and not a sanctuary
I had lost the key and was afraid to open the door
All alone…
My broken heart began to race, tomorrow I could not face
I believe an Angel of Light heard the calling of my Soul
On wings of Love she took me to blue skies above
No longer alone…
I was in a diaphanous castle in the Sky
The answers to my questions, all the reasons why
All the brutality, needless deaths and goodbyes
No longer alone…
A Lady of infinite beauty listened patiently as it all poured out
First a whisper and then a shout. Kindness too much to bare
The dam burst, I saw in her eyes such tender love and care
No longer alone…
Reflected in the eyes of the Goddess of all Humanity
I saw such deep empathy, compassion and love…I saw me!
I saw the rhyme and reason, watched my life unfold
She whispered my story needed to be told
So those walking a Protector’s path far from Home
Know they are Divinely Protected and NEVER alone
For we come from Love and will return to Love. Only Love is real.
Eily Nash ~2020
Summer Love
Blessed by blue skies on a sultry Summer day, I lay upon a lush green lawn in my English Country garden. The scent of Honeysuckle and Jasmine hang sweetly on the air, blending with Roses and Lavender. Such delicate fragrances delight the senses. They are dancing to the soft calling of birds and the low humming of nectar gathering bees. A Ray of Light playfully glints through rustling Beech Tree leaves and I watch Swifts riding the breeze. So high, soaring to the edge of blue. Soft caresses of sunlight are kissing my skin.
I close my eyes and dream of you.
Eily Nash ~ 2020
Bones of Carrion

…And so they come to feed, like raptors on your flesh until you are no more than the bones of carrion. You did not see them for what they were, until it was too late. Behind innocent eyes a deep sea of jealousy lies. There is no kindness in words that cut the fabric of a soul.

Mysteries of Love
He lay down his head to sleep with a secret his heart did keep. Beneath the dark blanket of night the mysteries of love revealed that which by the light of day was concealed. Lovers locked in each others arms. He was entranced by a Sorceress and her bewitching charms ✨

Wicked Games …
With sea green eyes, you taunt and tantalise. They dream and fantasise as you tease, you please, bring the unsuspecting to their knees. Behind an enigmatic smile, hides deceit & guile. Such wicked games you innocently play, then coldly walk away. The lying enemy within, whispers Love is a sin.

Witch Lit Eyes
By beguiling witch-light I fell so deeply into the depths of her Obsidian eyes. What was I looking for, perhaps some long forgotten lost aspects of myself?
Instead I found her true essence hiding in the twilight chambers of her heart.
Through me, a mortal man, she was set free. No longer destined to be imprisoned walking on hot burning coals behind hell’s gates, but to walk hand in hand with me, in the hallowed halls of Sacred Love that flow into Eternity.

Bohemian Lovers
It was just a passing glance, meeting by pure chance.
And for a moment frozen in time, my heart’s true desire was mine.
Freed from the constraints of conventual reality
I looked into his fathomless eyes, let my Spirit fly free.
Across the eons we travelled far.
Bohemian Lovers dancing on Stars.

Check Mate ♟

You were the one who chose the game
And placed the pieces on the board.
You made your opening move.
Lies wrapped in Truth.
Wanted your Lover’s game darker.
Black Queen with sights set.
Picked up your sacrificial pawn.
You did not see the gambit
….until it was too late.
The silent Rook took flight
Swooped and took your white Knight.
Check Mate.
Game over

Beautiful Fairytale
Did she fascinate, charm and beguile? Maybe a distraction for just a while. Did she fill your thoughts in your waking hours and seep into your sleep. Before you knew, were you in too deep? Did she really have that power? With her faraway eyes, she saw other worlds, far beyond the veil. Was she for real or were you lonely and she was only a beautiful fairytale?

Dance of the Dragonfly
Autumn leaves are falling. Summer has long gone, fading into memories of the magic of a love that enchanted both Earth and Sky. What mortal hand can hold the dance of Dragonflies?
Not you, nor I.
Winter bids me time to sleep, The yearnings of Spring call to you.
Fly away, fly high, on gossamer wings, my Dragonfly.
Your seasons of passion change, my constant heart sings a song of eternal love.

Forest Of Hearts

Can you hear the song of the trees
Sweet notes of bronze, red and gold
Dreams of fire falling at your feet
Carried on the wings of the breeze
Gaia’s Autumn carpet gently unfolds
In the forest of hearts, as Lovers meet

Lily Flame
Lady Lily Flame
My Lady, My Love, My Lily Flame
Do you wear a sullied cloak of shame
Has purity and innocence taken flight
To the beguiling dark embrace of Night
Nyx and Erebus, alluring, starless charms
Mists enticing you into seductive arms
My Lady, My Love, My Lily Flame
Guileless innocence, without blame
Deny the Ferryman his Stygian fee
From Thanatos tenebrous domain flee
By flames of Winter burning bright
Take safe passage through the night
My Lady, My Love, My Lily Flame
Capricious gods may play Night’s game
Gates of the rising sun light the way
To sanctuary of Hemera’s breaking day
Purified by the kiss of the Morning Dew
Absolution and Benediction fall on you
