Open the gateway

“That looks like a gateway to the past” Gun Roswell

Open the gateway

The gateway on to the
Beach appeared, out of nowhere, in a
Flash of light, it was

Standing there, where nothing before
It existed. Now it is open wide
For anyone to enter, if you

Really dare, then take a
Leap and jump back in time into
The past of all time

Just remember, you may not
Get back, but that is a risk
Well worth taking, so stop

Your shaking and take the
Step, one small step for mankind and
Who knows what you’ll find

Waterfall

“Sitting in peace and quiet, listening to the water fall” Gun Roswell

Waterfall

Under the waters of cool
Falling over onto my tired, aching body
The purity of it all

Makes me feel so tall
Washing away all, under this watery wall
I stand, silent and contempt

Pond (part two)

“On the green pond, I sit and ponder” Gun Roswell

Pond

The flowers at the pond
Quietly on the waters calm surface flow
Nothing stirs them, nothing moves

Until a gust of wind
Makes a motion, causing all of them
To start towards each other

Flow, soon finding patterns only
Limited by my own imagination, nature’s tools of
Art best used here, now

Pond (part one)

“On the green pond, I sit and ponder” Gun Roswell

Pond

On the lush green pond
I stare at the water and ponder
What would life be if

A fish or flower would
I be instead of this human corps
What if I was to

Dive in, would I turn
Or stay the same? Maybe changing would
Be the best option now

Ship ahoy!

“Hailing a ship, may sound easy” Gun Roswell

Ship ahoy!

Ship, ship, please, do stop!
I want to step on board and catch
A ride, sail on the

Ocean, with the best of
Them, but alas, I am a mere
Hitchhiker, of the waters, and

Trying to catch a ride
Is very hard, but please pick me
I will work so hard!

Solitary sailing

“Solitary is a mood and a place” Gun Roswell

Solitary sailing

Sailing in my tiny dingy
Across the open seas, as far as
I can be, I have

No schedules and no one
To tell me I cannot do it
For I am sailing solo

Head on

“Collision or just bad parking?” Gun Roswell

Head on

A head on collision at
The parking lot happened, two cars
Face to face, neither of

Them budging, toe to toe
Like two of foes, who will win
Or maybe, just bad parking?

Duo

“Two of the same kind” Gun Roswell

Duo

Totally the same but not
They look alike, but they are different
Can you tell them apart?

They were created the same
They were brought up, by same parents
They were always the two

But there is a slight
Difference, if you look carefully enough, you’ll
See it as clear as day

Alien world

“Looking into an completely alien world” Gun Roswell

Alien world

In to a new alien
World, in your dreams you were hurled
A place so sacred, only

A chosen few, are allowed
To visit, look around, all around, what
Do you find? Be careful!

Look at the highest skies
On to the lowest grounds, try to
Remember what you see and feel

The sights, the sounds, the
Fragrants around you, see, remember, for this
Is once in a life

Time trip, without any return

Abandoned

“A place time forgot” Gun Roswell

Abandoned 

A doorway to nowhere specific
Grass growing, no one mowing the lawn
Would you buy this place?
