Round and Around | The Sun Amongst The Clouds

https://thesunamongsttheclouds.wordpress.com/2014/08/21/round-and-around

The Sun Amongst The Clouds. A fine WordPress.com site. August 21, 2014. Oh my beloved,. You have seized to escape from my presence. My eyes do search you,. As time’s pulse beats,. My pupils dance around,. Round and around,. Magnifying the scent you left with. My gaze stands still,. Grasping where you had touched. Why have you escaped my sight,. I am eternally in recognition of your warmth, your sweetness, your breath and your touch. Whilst you have also escaped,. Yet you dance in circulation,. We were bo...

The Given Note by Seamus Heaney | Poems and Illuminations

https://davidjordanpoetry.com/2014/04/10/the-given-note-by-seamus-heaney

Poetry and blogs from the pen of Irish writer, David Jordan. The Given Note by Seamus Heaney. April 10, 2014. On the most westerly Blasket. In a dry-stone hut. He got this air out of the night. Strange noises were heard. By others who followed, bits of a tune. Coming in on loud weather. Though nothing like melody. He blamed their fingers and ear. As unpractised, their fiddling easy. For he had gone alone into the island. And brought back the whole thing. The house throbbed like his full violin.

September | 2013 | Poems and Illuminations

https://davidjordanpoetry.com/2013/09

Poetry and blogs from the pen of Irish writer, David Jordan. Monthly Archives: September 2013. September 27, 2013. For all you music lovers out there, especially bass players, here is a poem I wrote about one of my heroes, Steve Harris, bass player with Iron Maiden. It’s from my collection, The End. Hope you like it. Like Hendrix, you pushed your instrument. And created a unique sound,. Nobody plays like you. Fast and melodious,. Full of sweet fills,. Your fingers tapping madly. Like a moth’s wings.

The Unreflected Life | Poems and Illuminations

https://davidjordanpoetry.com/2014/10/12/the-unreflected-life

Poetry and blogs from the pen of Irish writer, David Jordan. October 12, 2014. I awoke to muddy boots,. My clothes soaked and stinking of urine. Reject of Dionysus I am. Stumbling in the dark, on the grass,. On the riverbank, like a rat. Reject of Dionysus I am. I can hear his laughter. Old habits and behaviours reappear,. Madness, danger and fear. Wasted days, wasted years. Reject of Dionysus I am. Gladly, I toss away my thyrsus. I awake from stupor. To reason and intellect and imagination.

One Day | Poems and Illuminations

Poetry and blogs from the pen of Irish writer, David Jordan. February 22, 2014. When I’m out of bed, bad blood and. Curses, maybe I’ll smile under the. See her wrapped in a. Then cover up again. See her hang there, full,. Like a silver pendant. A calm unwinking eye. See her radiate and glow. The way women glow. See her move slowly and. Silently across the sky. What else can I do but try. To please her with my pen,. Solitary, romantic old fool. This entry was tagged poem. One thought on “ One Day.

Dawn | Poems and Illuminations

https://davidjordanpoetry.com/2014/04/09/dawn-by-david-jordan/comment-page-1

Poetry and blogs from the pen of Irish writer, David Jordan. April 9, 2014. Over time my anger has dwindled. I can feel it going:. The fire, the energy and the blood. But I’m still glowing. Aengus, son of light, still. Will call me in time to do as he bids. For I am for the birds. And I am for the young. And all your power and grace and time. Your melting clocks on the wall,. Your genius awakening at dawn. I am on your side. This entry was tagged ageing. The Given Note by Seamus Heaney →.

June | 2015 | Poems and Illuminations

https://davidjordanpoetry.com/2015/06

Poetry and blogs from the pen of Irish writer, David Jordan. Monthly Archives: June 2015. June 29, 2015. The sky was on fire. The sea, monstrous. As we walked on the hazardous. Roof of the old Big House. I was high on destiny. Night fall, full of fear,. We left the fire to commune. With ghosts in the pitch black. Someday, if we ever return,. We will look for ghosts of ourselves. We will stop and listen for footsteps. And we will watch for figments of lighter. Flame in the darkness. And the ravenous sea.
