Nature



Through the corridors of time my image passes
Like a galleon upon a raging sea
I am blinded in the night as lightening flashes
I am thrown into a dark infinity
Still I feel the hands of destiny and gain
Holding me as I was held when I was born
And I know that I will love my new domain
Ending memories of all the first world's storms
Through the hallways I travel
Like a blind man searching for a hidden dream
I am looking for a way I can unravel
All the mysteries and problems I have been
By the lights of truth and honesty I wander
Seeing everything I tried so hard to fain
By the lights of hope and faith I do not ponder
I am satisfied by what I am today
I was never good or bad but always human
And I never boasted over things I made
And I never did believe god is a woman
'til she gave me all the love for which I prayed

P G Webster is a poet and songwriter from the Pennine Moors close to the home of the Bronte sisters of Haworth in West Yorkshire. Midgley, the small hamlet like village where he spent his initial 10 years is the subject matter of some of the poet's writings, along with Hebden Bridge and the moorland surrounding Halifax and Calderdale. P G Webster's most noted inspiration is not his favourite poet - William Blake - nor his lifelong obsession with the Brontes, but infact, the very ground he trod around his home surroundings. He has a profound passion for nature and philanthropic matters. The work of this unknown bard is special, and expressive and very, very impressive. Read, and digest these pieces and marvel at their originality, while recognizing the obvious echoes and style of Blake. more…
