New Year

New Year

New Year, New Beginnings,

 Promises made, yet already thinning,

New Friendships ready to be created, 

Old ones needing nurtured, tended, updated!

Brand new goals to reach, set for pursuing,

Yet past disappointments linger, still doing their wooing,

It's a new year and new beginnings are the offering, 

 Tho thoughts in your head persist, constantly wafting!

So you should take note of your dreams, explore the new,

Learn from the lessons of the past,

For

When you least expect

It,

They will come

And
Torment you !!

Happy New Year 

Demons of the mind

Demons of the mind 

ds

Sitting  face to face are the demons of my mind 
Cheeky little chappies, with an agenda of some kind, 
Plotting  lots of jokes and silly things I shouldn't say 
Making sure there is at least one faux pas, 
that passes my lips nearly every other day 
So when I splurt  the wrong thing  uncontrollably from my lips 
My mental sieve has failed again,,,,,,, OOps I let it slip !
Cos sitting face to face are the demons of my mind.

Moonbeams and Dreams 

Picture by Laurent Laveder

I would captured the moon for you 
If I knew your love was true 
I would stop the ocean tides 
If your love for me was bona fide
I would capture the stars that shine
If  you would love me, be only mine
 I would make heaven our home
If you would love me and me alone
Angels on harps would play
If you promised not to stray
We'd feast on the foods of gods
If you would love me, give me the nod
You will always be my faithful queen
In the land of my silly valentine dreams !

Vintage Valentine 

I love you ,Oh so very much !

My body tingles with every touch,

When you look at me in that way, 

Time stops, ceases to exist at least for a day,

When you hold me so near in your arms, 

No man or beast would dare do me harm 

As we lie close, caressing one another, 

No goddess in heaven could want another lover,

Yet this is our heaven night after night, 

Our years together and it still feel so right! 

Our love is alive, it's still so much fun,

Never to be relinquished 

Not even for the moon, stars or sun,

My deepest wish is to remain with you, in this bed, 

Till we're very, very old or preferably dead!  

So when we finally reach those famous pearly gates 

You and I can start on over, right from our first date !

Missing You

Missing You 

Picture by www.emilianoponzi.com

Hugging your pillow, 

Ain't quite the same, 

As snuggling with you, 

And calling your name. 

Missing You!

Eating dinner solo, 

Munching the bone, 

Not chatting with you, 

Just being alone

. 

Missing You! 

Sitting watching drivel, 

Like we do, 

It seems to make sense, 

When its us two. 

Missing You !

Random thoughts that enter your head, 

Now it's just silence. 

No mumbling philosophy, 

The space is dead. 

Missing You !

So hurry home, 

Fill the space, 

Snuggle up tight, 

Make my heart race. 

Missing You !

Hugging my pillow 

Ain't quite the same,

Missing you 

Saying my name !

Missing you is what I do 

When it just me 

And not us two 

Missing you !

Fallen

Fallen

It hung upon his bedroom door,

A khaki suit worn no more,

He left to become a man

Ideas of freedom,

Equality and peace,

His dreams were naive

At the very least!

He followed his dreams,

To lands afar,

His dreams were wished upon to a wandering star,

He did his best, fought alongside his comrades,

The same as him, mainly lads, 

They witnessed  death ,blood, and gore, 

Inside the boy was killed  he was a lad no more, 

As a man his life was short 

The killing machines held their own kangaroo court. 

He returned to his homeland laid in a box,

His life deceased and memories locked 

It hangs upon his bedroom door,

A khaki suit worn no more, 

Only the memories of the fine boy he'd been, 

 All his potential for greatness, silenced, unseen!

Remembering all those all over the world who have fallen in the quest for peace!

Winter Survival

Winter Survival 

Iced winds chill the atmosphere, 

Causing strife, worry and morbid fear, 

Cutting through to every fibre, 

No choice but to become a survivor! 

Plumage gone, deceased! 

As icy winds strengthen like some Maddening beast, 

Cutting through every fibre, 

Only choice to be strong, become a survivor!

Warmer winds and sun that shines, 

Will return in its time, 

 Warming through to every fibre, 

Proving to one and all,... WE are survivors!
