When your child’s feeling ill His body hot, maybe a chill Hold him in your arms real tight Love him till you make it right Our children are our own creation made from love and procreation teach them what is right and wrong and how to sing that special song When our child is feeling sad When things all seem so very bad We wrap our arms around real tight Don’t be sad my little man, and tell them all will be alright When childhood is left behind Our pride is something undenied All the years we loved and cared and all the lovely times we shared There’s nothing more so precious than love we cannot hide There’s nothing more so precious than that thing called Mothers Pride

A Mother’s Pride
Twenty third June twenty sixteen The biggest vote we’d ever seen Results are in and Brexit win and many say it’s such a sin Those who voted not to leave This news they just could not believe Sore losers showed their  bitter anguish soon from Europe we would vanish Let’s vote again remainers say 'No vote again' says Theresa May Our country voted in or out and voted out without a doubt The apple cart tipped on its head Britain in Europe would soon be dead Now Brexit was born the following morn. This beautiful kingdom from Europe be torn Remainers are mad while leavers are glad Great Britain is out there is no doubt So shut up remainers, accept what is done We voted together and Brexit won

Lets not exit Brexit
Tsunami came from nowhere, Mother nature called aloud Bringing with it only sin, Bearing devastating sacrifice and death to all and kin. Reality hit home within the first few hours, As news came through the world soon new It seemed the earth had cracked in two Now our world is flawed with devastation Death, pain, and desolation We pray for those who died And feel for those in pain Our people’s lives were taken when that brutal mother came This mother came from nowhere upon the highest wave Bringing in destruction, death and devastation, Loss, horror, and hopeless apprehension. These words cannot portray our feeling of dismay Our minds in fear as we shed a tear For those whose lost and those who suffer Awaiting news or searching through the thousands. Undignified, coming to terms with loss of those who once loved but now no longer. Mother Nature played her part so viciously, Leaving just a simple question…why. Today I pray alone, but I know I am not alone for the entire world will pray with me.

Tsunami
Mirrors always show the truth, sometimes they are so mean it tell me things I hate to know and sometimes things I need to know but sometimes when I’m feeling great and ready for a date that mirror tells me don’t be late, your date he may not wait. But sometimes when my diet fails and all my efforts lost that mirror tells me 'don’t be sad, just think of all that food you had' then I think of all that cake, the pies, the fries and juicy steak that mirror stands in front of me, I sigh at what I see I see a figure round and free, I see the truth, I see me so mirror mirror don’t be mean, let me be...let me be me

Let me be me
I watched the news today, I watch it every day and every day It seems the same painful terror without shame As Mother nature makes her call She devastates both one and all She'll slice her way across the land As father demon lends a hand And seas rise up towards the shore Where land becomes the ocean floor I watched the news today... War torn places on their knees, The innocent no longer free A starving child, he walks alone across a stony path he'd roam Searching for the freedom, a gift that he once knew His mother dead, his father hurt his brother disappeared This child alone keeps going, there’s nowhere he can go He searches everywhere for someone he may know But no one comes to ease his pain, His search for freedom, all in vain I watched the news today... The starving child who walked alone He walks alone no more He’s found amid the war zone crouched, cold and all alone He stares into his fathers eyes where pain and anguish clearly lyes Hand in hand they walk together father, brother, and memories of mother, Along a stony path they roam, towards the tiny shack called home

I watched the news today
A silhouette in darkness strolling through a street. A lonely man, a lonely soul, who wonders where he goes? Heading home no doubt or maybe he’s a lout. Walking into mischief, or just a ticket tout No one could ever know what lies within his brain? Or is he just a guiltless man, or someone gone insane. Whatever he may be, whoever he may be. His world is just as normal As he or she or thee. He walks upon a crowded street but lonely is his soul. Passing by without a thought a world he used to know. But now that world has changed, and he is so alone. He walks beneath a blackness of shadows from the past. A past of joyful times, a past of blissful kinds, a past of smiles, a past of tears, but most of all a past of fears. This lonely shadow heading home, Innocent and free. His work is done, its time for fun. Gone from shadow into sun. He walks across a crowded street with one thing on his mind. His wife, his strife his daily life cuts through his soul just like a knife. Now that's what this mans all about he is no lout or ticket tout! He’s just a soul we do not see Or maybe just an entity

A soul we think we know
I am asked so many times Do I love this man of mine My answer is there for all to see For in my heart I hold a key But now the years are rolling by, My oh my how time do fly I think about it long and hard, Our life together, so unmarred I ask myself do I love him still And answer yes I love him still But another question hangs in tow Am I in love? I answer no.... To be in love is to be obsessed With *** and lust and a cosy nest To be in love is for new affairs, For holding hands and hidden lairs. No No! I am not in love not now but once I was and this is how. My man and me we fell in love Walking hand in hand together. Swore our vows and led each other Let no man put our love asunder
