Navigate Without fear Retrace the path that led you here Travel light Be yourself The only forms of Cosmic wealth Earth is so Minuscule Manifest Your molecules In the stars Of brightest days The things you did I’ll love always Until you died Your face glowed Your blackberry eyes and smile showed To that state Of true peace Your sweet soul You let release With one last verse Of your last song The tunes you sang I’ll carry on Until like you I'm in peace Eternal souls from Earth released Your next life Has begun In the light Of other suns Many things From you I’ve learned I hope I helped you in return Up beyond the The toil and strife You’ve climbed into the afterlife

From the surface of our planet The stars seem far away But don’t ever let them fool you Into dreaming the mundane After all a little photon Like the ones that we’ll become Time dilates for them to forever It’s no sooner here than gone So when all of your matter Has all gone Decayed into a plasma of Quarks and gluons To all the time and trouble you’ll be numb When you turn to gauge bosons Your journey has just begun There will still be things that carry From the old to the new eon Things that computation can’t do And things you can with Boolean When the stars are born tomorrow Where the Cosmos is brand new All the ways we’re put together Will be so again it’s true And you and I will smile in the suns The light that shines tomorrow Does so for everyone The best times started without Dollar one And so go on forever for everyone So where we live’s a land where no one dies No meaning’s ever lost from where and when we’ve cried And every treasure granted Or denied Is explicit and implied and fully dignified It’s a land where no one ever dies

All of these atoms All these particles and waves They’ve been assembled In exactly the same way And some day All these positions That we find all these things in Get back together When our life again begins where ever In the depths of endless space lie worlds exactly like this place Across the gulf of great unknowns Where souls of treasured friends have flown When that switched is flicked Every box is ticked for we are More than our feelings So much more than flesh and bone Everything that makes you you Strings or Plancks or quantum truths is just an episode Of permutated modulated code Like a mode The Earth though beautiful is not our home when we Look to the night and stare Out at the suns up there And wonder when and where And how we’ll be aware And how through death we will live up there

Whisper my darling You’ll soon be singing with the starlings Where you’ll fly In the sky When I die I’ll find you Whisper my darling For now you’re sleeping in your garden Water that flows crystal clear I thought you might like to be near Where Whisper darling The river flows around your garden And my eyes How time flies When you’re feeling happy Whisper my darling I love how you were always smiling Say to our small friends you’ll see Thanks for the joy you gave me Whisper sweet darling You never were afraid dying Or the rain Live again You’ll remain my sister Whisper my darling Tonight you’re sleeping in your garden Whisper my darling You’ll soon be singing with the starlings

I would die for you Supply in you The sky back to blue in all its magic Suns and stars and galaxies that shine upon you face Bless your heart and soul and mind with every form of grace The Seeds that you sow spread out farther than the sea Say I’ll catch one I will give to no one My last chance that someone To my life came on that breeze When you look into my heart I’m sure that you will find All the ways that we could smile until we have to die

Make Believe 01:57
Make believe In the wildest of your dreams Plant the seeds of your Wishes now and see Keep moving forward Through the ever driving gale have Faith in tomorrow Tarry not and avail yet so With your brain Not the winter nor the rain no and not the pain Has to lasts in this domain Winter turns to spring And so does everything Turn the wheels of our journey which will be never be complete Love and other things That make us dance and sing Our songs live on Ever after we have gone So many planets and so many things to see Like sadness in beauty life is often bittersweet When we lift our eyes and look past all the lies Of the dark clouds that gather and we see the clear skies No one really dies We just spread our wings and fly through Time and space Take the lessons of this place Interlace Interface With the universe embrace
9.
Somewhere in our universe I’ll see you again You can bet I’ll see you in another life Though we might look different I will know you at first sight By the special shining of your light I’ll will hold so tightly to the things to me you gave But I won’t hide or lock them away All your love and lessons I’ll keep proudly on display They’ll make me smile all along the way From the day we met our lives were bound eternally In each other’s hands Far enough we travelled to learn we’re on the same Despite our separate plans In this world of worries we did well to get so far And what a way to go that lies ahead Though it may be distant just follow that North Star It will lead you to a feather bed
10.
Life’s an ocean of great tides Anyone will bring you life Anything can make you see Life’s too short to disbelieve In the world within your dreams Not till death when you will see Travel lightly on that night Know no pain before your flight Overturn the hidden truth No more may it hinder you Every step you take from here Leads you to skies blue and clear Rubiks' cubes and anecdotes Take the time to know yourself Sort the fiction from the fact From the scene and from the act Know the words that you must say to Other souls along the way Greater than the fear of death Is fear of life: the great regret Some may tell you that some day All your sins then you must pay Me I choose not to believe Those accountants when we leave On our way to start again and If you search within your brain Looking inwards past the stars Beyond this Cosmos of ours On that hazy distant shore The sight will leave you wanting more Smiling knowing that you’re safe To travel lightly on your way

Just a Spark 04:48
We don’t need to make believe life’s Full of Narratives that weave The greatest stories they achieve Great twists that make you laugh or grieve In your mind you’ll find a door that Leads us all to so much more and Sends true peace right to your core and Spreads our wings to rise and sore far Up beyond your abstract thoughts where Better than to owe is nought and Wait until it can be bought this Is the lesson life has taught me Then the battle you’ll have fought and Into shape your soul you’ll wrought then Look what spring has gone and brought you Not to starboard not to port but Dead ahead upon your course where Ebbing forward from the source so Go dead slow or stop the horse seek Grace that asks not for remorse for Every life is just a spark A momentary pause of dark so There was no need for the ark but Noah never knew of quarks or Like the quantum world below where As above is how it goes and Time dilates from fast to slow by Inner Clock workings that grow us All the while within that night then Only do we see the light when Wrestling till we get it right not Trusting just our sound and sight Consciousness is defined thus and Though we complain moan and fuss it’s Our perception should adjust made From and going back to dust so Never mind the polling booth for All the systems based on truth are Just a spark to death from youth I’ll Raise a toast, gin and vermouth Nothing’s perfect not just yet but what a gift is ours to get with Out much effort or regret When off we cast our chains and let Our feet take strides towards the next Chapter in space and time’s project The chance to offer up our best Inner tyrannosaurus rex The beast from whence your sprint came By now you’re so less weak and lame But not as alpha in your game As you will be when you reclaim But you first must age and die for Every spark must say goodbye but Not before it shines so brightly Like a diamond in the sky see Life is property to rent but Not to buy not 1% for Time is wasted when it’s spent in Counting all that discontent so Each and every living thing Alive right now should stop and sing for Music takes away the sting Of being a spark vibrating string and Music makes you see beyond the Waves that dance with magic wands and With the Cosmos corresponds to Reap the joy when it responds with Just the message you so need to Be from your old shackles freed but Mortality will mislead you Into thinking you agreed to Sign a pact to die as soon as Morning night or afternoon comes Undertaker, friends commune and Gather funeral platoon But as you know the truth of it now Use your brain and heart and whit for Life’s a spark: it doesn’t quit till Life rise next morning permits you Wake perhaps your memory it Starts again but you and me are Still connected to that tree Our ancestor reality Is that life is just a spark where Deep down in the deepest dark when Upon your next phase embark I’ll See you there my fellow spark Like the day that dawns again Like the sea becomes the rain Then the streams the rain sustains and So again you’ll grow your brain for Sparks like us are temporary a Lease of life to build our dreams so Use life well always believe The truth’s beyond your widest dreams
12.
The destinations in your dreams Transcend what we from here perceive Anything you make believe Like lucid dreams can you conceive Try your best to hold on to The things you long for to be true They will help you to break through And then some day I’ll follow you Buckle up and hold on tight And smile at death upon that night Everything will be alright I’ll See you in another life

Take a moment out to help a little one Whose chances were as slim as midnight shining sun Or soldiers helpless facing firing Lewis guns Whose mothers cry for Providence to save their sons For a second stop and see Be the Providence they need Transcend dimensions for free Newton’s third law escapee Each equal opposite the apogee of grace Goes to the god and creature at that time and place Persist and never think that there’s an end to space Or reason not to stop and stoop and slow your pace And as you go out of your way With kindness let another day Live a creature foundered may It could speak to you would say “Thank you friend if not for you A Capulet or Montague Like Wellington at Waterloo Providence to me are you” When the day will come and surely come it will The cost to keep your wheels rolling up the hill You must take your turn to ask your cup to fill From dying in the dirt you’ll want yourself to kill To care for someone else’s needs Is truly free from vanity Selflessness in word and deed Generous and void of greed Of course the formulae for Providence are vague And nuanced at the best of times upon life’s stage But choose a part to play that gives you as you age The grace to give and give always and then your wage Will be the providence you gave To be a god unseen offstage No audience to give you praise For being the Providence that saves That picked that creature from the grave A life so delicate you saved To nemesis you could have waved But Love you ushered to your days That lie ahead and when your time will come to die I trust the Providence you were to little lives Will seek you out and find you on your final night Will stop and stoop and scoop you in the hand of Life Nemesis or Providence Use your bloody common sense Grace turns out the best defence You gained a pound and spent one pence You knew that it was you lay helpless on the path Although not out of fear of nemesis’ wrath You saw the likely horror in the aftermath And lent the helping hand of Providence Empath Love and hate the twins of fate One chooses us and cannot wait All depending on that date You stopped to help without debate An act can magnify in planes Not disclosed by thinking trains Of matters threatening to the sane Who conform to their hearts and brains And if you go before I get the chance to be A giant in the spirit world and you can see Me needing help please stop and go upon your knee And cup me in your hands be Providence to me And like Divine help comes to me Quench my thirst when I’m thirsty Animals know what I mean When fleeing Fate’s cruel destiny When Providence will deal to you the same as you The very choice you made to help the helpless through Then knowing what you chose but then you always knew That all along back then the moment brought to you Landing right upon your plate The guarantee of Saving Grace Sometimes Chance and sometimes Fate Is how Life unwinds in this place Each time each one came to you Appearing as a door or two To stand and stare or walk into And love was what you chose to do It was you who lay there in that bitter sand Counting down your breaths before a mortal man Stopped and stooped and made a detour from his plan And for a minute of his time he lent his hand

On the bank of your river I see that they’re building a leat For the mill that will turn like the wheel that you moved with your feet Time as we know like the flow is a one way street That’s what We’re told by the women We try to defeat Sundown calls all of us back to our beds As a million free birds fly over our heads When it's all done and said And our last tear is shed The sky turns to red Greener is grass so they say on the opposite side But the rushes and reeds where you lie grow so high how they thrive Glued to the ground were you fingers while you were alive, but so Wide are the wings that you spread now you take to the skies Sundown calls all of us back to our beds As a million free birds fly over our heads When it's all done and said And our last tear is shed The sky turns red

Where did Simon go? Is my semantic so Or do I want to know About the status quo Are we just embryos? Of feelings high and low On archipelagos Each life and planet so Our eyes see in slowmo Each second undergo 24 staccatos Of red to indigo Like Michelangelo’s Bespoke portfolio The aspect ratio Aurora stereo We dream more than we know And reap more than we sow But when I feel low Barber's Adagio The notes they seem to flow To where they need to go To gift me grace that grows And works it’s magic glow Henry David Thoreau Broadcast to radio Is like a Dynamo Of hope for tomorrow On Walden pond he rows In beauty overflows But Walden’s studio Is on our patios A stream that overflows A heart that gives will grow So where did Simon go? It matters not for me to know

I could turn my face all day to the sun As the Earth spun And feel it’s clockwise movement as I thank you for the things you’ve done But now the time has come again For me to ask you’ll lift the strain And lead me to the peace I need For all this weight to be released I’ve learned to trust From this spec of dust In the things we cannot see but be they must

To all humanity my friends From every love letter was penned At ever bar that hope attends I’ll stay until the bitter end In the face of unkind odds Without requests to any god To all lone wolfs I smile and nod My fellow friends the road less trod Will take you round the mountain pass But not in search of greener grass Or ends to all your chores and tasks But dusks on days towards your last And anchored to the chain of truth To gain again nothing but youth Not vain nor rude and not uncouth But brave and meek though long in tooth If anybody knows on Earth How much true life is really worth A century since childbirth Is not enough before rebirth I recall now my elders words As timeless as the songs of birds The gate keep got down when he heard Me utter the correct password A Message long and void of fear Accounting all I viewed from here Limited by eyes and ears And biased feelings soon to clear Mind and Heart before I die May all my memory survive So who I’ll be won’t be denied For want of wisdom by and by As for my foes I’ve come to learn That hating them is fools’ concerns Misguiding mortal souls to burn In toil that offers no returns On my bed of death I claim The only thing in me that’s slain Is all the fear within my brain The only thing that caused me pain Now nothing is the sting of death If we’ve one life don’t fear or fret One life that’s lived without regrets Is all you really need I’d bet But still I like to make believe The greatest stories yet to breathe Lie far beyond what we perceive Until from Earth we die and leave I Disparage the door of death It’s not the greatest of my threats That haunted me or make me sweat In Devon Cornwall Somerset And every face in memories Are only smiling now I see And All their stories they gave me Like cream on first and cups of tea Just before I say good bye Before I transcend to the sky “Be yourself” is all I cry Now my old friends I’ll leave to find
