star, sapphire of the water,
sapphire of love,

the moon, throws
off her jacket,
bares her flesh in the
autumn rain,

leaves melt to the
floor,
streams of gold
and amber
start to blur,

surreal landscape,
mooring rope of golden rain,
as you kiss me
i ***** into
your corners,

unwind like the
night’s sapphire
dew,
mesmerized by
the dark waters of
your touch,

mesmerized by your love.

Well today I've had the grandchildren
Playing in my house
Really they've been as good as a mouse; theyve watched TV and played on the wii
Crawled all over the furniture and then crawled all over me
We've been out for dinner and closed the door, leaving behind the mess on the floor
We've walked to the park and watched swans running on the water
Laughed at the silliness at the sight of these birds
Talking about how they look in flight; they really do look absurd
Well now the day is done they've gone off to their home
All that's left is to clean up the mess, shouldn't take long; I'll call in the army to help me clear after all its a war zone surely they will see that it will take an army as well as you and me.
He! He! Love my grandkids but they ain't half messy but when they crawl on your lap and give you milky kisses all is forgiven
seen one  of life's peaks
seen many mountains
been around a few of life's
mysteries and evaded
none

I saw my children come  out of
their mother's womb
I fell on my knees
at the majesty

I was near when people close to me
passed into the next world
I've seen history be told
by wise old *****
whose days had passed 90
or 93

I have seen young die too soon
7 11 13
28

53
I wasn't there when my dad passed
I've  loved dogs
and cats children and women

Music and ages and strangers I never knew
in the distance
I see me pass
I  see the world keep on spinning
I only wish
for the chance to tell
to certify my love
hold her eternally
one time
before the end

I remember the days
when I was a kid
and my nanny Rose
lived with me mum sis and bro!
She always smelled so pretty!
Every morning she would
get up early and put on one
of her flowery dresses
even in winter she looked
like summer and she
always sprayed so much
lacquer in her lovely brown hair  
i tasted it everytime!
She worked up London
in a big firm working as a tea lady
Everyday she would push her
little trolley full
of tea and biscuits
into all the offices
she was so loved by all her
employers!
Once a year she would
take us all to see the
Lord Major show up London
and  we would wave our flags
and have a jolly good time.
Every night she would leave
her pearly teeth in a cup
and oh my! did she snore loud
Me and my sister would laugh
under the bed sheets hoping she
wouldn't hear us!
I miss my nanny Rose a lot
she was truly a wonderful lady
and rests softly and warmly
in my memories and my heart
always **
Inspired after readin john baverstock poem about his Nan :)
