The meaning to life can't
be money or good looks
I heard this from my aunt
who read so many books

Nor is it having in your shed
all the tools to life
that's what my uncle said
looking at his wife

Then they both looked at me
and said you'll know when you grow up
while pouring a little bit more tea
into my half empty cup
i wandered through the night in a dream i had
to a land of happiness that made me feel so glad.

it was trouble free no worry or despair
it was full of love there was plenty there.

a land so very peaceful where i would like to stay
this land so full of happiness just a dream away
They came to me in
a febrile dream.
Whispered screams and
malformed limbs.
They wanted to drag
me to the hell they
came from, but I fought,
and got well.

Check out my you tube channel where I read my poetry.
Children usually follow example more than any advice...so try and be the example for them.
She was on her broom since noon,
Flying all over the sky,
And I saw her outline in the moon,
As I was strolling by.
fantasy poem
Autumn creeping round
Leaves on trees not colour bound
Gold will soon be here
haiku
There, in the
tide pool, dappled by
the sun, is birth and death,
and the spark that continues.
It leaves mankind in a wake of regret.
What have I to do with the albatross
Or sea lion?
I can but write, while they fly and roar.
I gaze upon the Pacific from this rock,
all its mysteries and grandeur.
I am inferior, while it forever reigns with
every wave and break of light.
