O I'm well tired
My poor feet are bigger than
normal that's not good

I know what a big
elephant feels like now with
there big stompy feet

And it's o so cold
outside that winters trying
to get in my house

I can feel it's bite
What a cheek it as , get out
of my house winter

go outside to the
trees cause no matter what you
do the trees stand tall!

Yeah take that winter!!
And see your fluffy snowflakes
They can shoo off too

Because all they do
is shut down the schools buses
and all train stations

And it melts way to
fast to build a snowman , all
that's left is puddles''

Oh slushy mushy
Fussy crushy lushy snow
Pushy offy please
Fed up with winter roll on spring :) this was inspired today after watching snowflakes full down x

I had soup today
Tomato flavour to be exact

Do you want some

To feed the whole of the day
Something different for a change :)

To the best man I know :)
Donna Oct 2017
It was over a bet! Yes a bet
between you and your pal
and I'm so happy
I choose you babe!
We were only seventeen
and we went on to have a big
family four boys and two girls
Everyday I smile
even if I'm upset or slightly angry
I still smile!
You worked long days and nights
to get us to where we are today
I sure did miss you lots but it's
been worth it , our house is small
but it somehow works well , we stick together as a family
we are like birds flying in sky!
I remembered when my bro passed away it broke my heart in half
I saw sadness in ways I never knew existed , days seemed to never end and that silence planted one fear after another , until I lived only deeply inside and not outside!
I kept running and running
and seem to never stop!
Then one day i climbed
out from behind my eyes
and I finally woke myself up
and you were still there
waiting for me with your big smile and hearty laugh and now we finally getting married next year thanks to our four older kids who have so beautifully offered to pay for our wedding , tis going to be a most wonderful day making all my winter days seem warm outside and leafless trees will
seem like the first day of spring
and when it snows it will glitter so awesomely upon earth ground
that the sun will shine like a summers day :)
Dedicated to my partner dean and husband to be who is my world and I love him very much xxxxx

Untitled
Donna Jan 2018
butterfllies sit in
offices fluttering there
awesome wings

caterpillars sit
opposite tapping there
moany old feet

the windows are big
painted with birds and Cherubs
and of course spinach

and next to spinach
is mash pototes with
onion gravy

tables covered in
red and white check cloths,  pretty
the salt and pepper

a chef flips pizza
red juicy round tomatoes
rest near grated cheese

and the clouds continue
to fluff up a beautiful
sight for all to see

then ping.. a cherub
aims an arrow right between
a woman's fingers

she looks in shock , not
at the arrow but at the
river she faces

the bridge is high
much higher now she stands at
the edge of the world

gently she stumbles
back onto the bridge , her legs
weak from insistence

knowing her life is
more important , she walks
away , her dress flows

her shoes clink , and she
looks up at the light in her
office and smiles
okay just another one that popped into my mind I not know if it makes sense or not but it made me smile as I wrote it x postivity rules always :) can't think of title **
Donna Mar 2018
She gave a big yawn
But no noise came out , she just
pouts like a big fish

You'll never hear her
sing out loud , she stays hidden
The way she prefers

Her feet so tiny
Wrapped in summers ripe green leaves
Laced with springs tree bark

She's bestfriends with the
dandelions , gently she
tip toes to the sky

She stops manic noise
with her shiny white teeth and
permanent sweet grin

She hangs upside down
in the sky painting colours
To pretty the world

She gets caught up in
all moments , a surreal bliss
of wings that don't fly

She's like a flower
Never will you hear her , yet
her beauty prevails

She's the peace in the
sky when the moon awakens
She helps dreams come true

She's creates a cloud
But a fluffy peaceful one
She's called 'Ms Silence'
I thought of the word silence x

Magical crows

Donna Mar 2018
The ocean ripples
little kisses to golden
gentle tender shore

Whilst the orange sun
dips behind winter trees where
it glows so lovely

Lamp post stand so still
Like masters of universe
Glowing up at night

And I sit in car
My belly rumbling like
a big volcano

House roofs like lego
Different sizes everywhere
Blocking out the sky

And a crow sits on
aerial listening to
the waves of tv

And I sit down
Around a wooden table
And eat a big feast
:)

Me and Dean - myhaikudiary
Donna Apr 2018
So me and Dean have
just come back from milking the
cows and there mooing (paganpaul :D ) :-))

So we woke this morn
To a grey rainy pavement
And slushy wet mud

Our poor trainers have
Mothers Earth literally stuck
to bottom of souls

So I must invest
in some Wellington boots , yeap
makes total sense..yeap yeap

Albie  is peeing
like a watering can , his
driving us crazy

But he is so cute
and ***** he runs into
doors chairs and the walls

Because the weather
as been so rainy our clothes
are forever wet

So now we are just
wearing wet suits , we look like
seals in the ocean

Oh okay I'm just
being silly but hey it's
super super fun

The kids have gone home
Well older ones have ,yay more
food for me and Dean

Now this is the truth
Me and Dean had cheese on toast
topped with some brown sauce

And it was ******
lovely , dean had tea with his
and i had coffee

Oops a Massive dose
of caffeine oh no my brain
is in overdrive

Oh no that now means
i won't sleep tonight , ah well
I best read a book
Hi everyone hope u all well I will catch up soon love  u all your all beautiful xxxx

She laid in bed in
her own pity lying
to her own music

A little girl with a
ego so big that one day
it will learn to calm

An angel sat there
Watching her from a distance
Gently flapping wings

She knew if she told
her or even advise her
it would be wasted

on music notes that
would never make a song sing
upon a white sheet

O the sky thundered
Lights flashed on and off behind
a cracked heaven door

Little butterfly
Still a caterpillar no
matter the warm spring

Change will take time but
it's up to a person
to change no one else

The angel grew a beard
Even got a tatoo drawn
To mark her anger

She flew away back
to her peaceful land of
kind gentle kinships

But she never gave
up watching the girl , once in
awhile she flew back

And kept her fluffy
cloud going until the rain
ignored a rainbow

And just like a clock
Tick tock tick tock back and forth
Until an hour

felt like time was a
good Samaritan and the
little girl would kick

back her bed covers
Put on her slippers and gown
And open her door
A story **

Loving life
Donna Sep 2017
What I most love about life
is the love that I've been given
It's only as I've got older and
each season that passes
my appreciation for life
seems to flourish like
a warm sun on a hot August
day where kids play outside
and birds fly in sky
and trees stand tall like
heros displaying a glorious
picture to fester nicely
in my mind to help shoo
away a cold winter day.
Dam I love the summer
and I love my family and
no matter what life throws
my way i get a little sad
but hey , tis just a normal
reaction , life is for living
even if reading a book is
your most beautiful interest
as long as it makes you happy
then that's okay , its all bout
relaxing enjoying and loving
the best at what life can give us.
:-)
Donna Mar 2018
So here I am in
a three bed house painting up
the well mouldy walls

Jeez there is mould in
every room and it's whiffs worst
then my old trainers

Eh! Did I say my
feet whiff..yes of course they do
Of sweet daffodils

So I sanded down
the walls and ended up like
a marshmellow man

Then I rolled the walls
If I keep on rolling like
this i shall end up

with Popeye arms , hmm
not very appealing on
a woman I say

O I'm a woman
Yes of course I am , I ****
too ain't that so fun

Oh dear looks like my
poem is not going to
plan , now where's the paint!

In bedroom is an
old wardrobe made of a tree
And it's so heavy

I wondered what tree
it was..aww bless where have all
the lovely leaves gone

Hey maybe it's a
magical wardrobe . But I
haven't got the time

to step in and have
a good old nose around , I
looked outside window

I saw a magpie
And pigeons on a house roof
Sitting quietly

I think there asleep
Ah well I be off now I
best get back to work
:)

Like a flicker of a candle
Donna Mar 2018
Like a flicker of a candle
Seasons come and go
Like an half open blind
It's never a closed show

Like people you love
A few will turn there backs
Like shadows on a wall
Tis time to mend those cracks

Like a rainbow in the sky
So colourful and high
Does heaven really exist!
Is that why birds fly!

Like a crow caw cawing
On an ordinary day
Is it in that silence
That nature as it's say

Like these pictures in my mind
Are they sub-consciously real
Or do I think too much
That I sentimentally feel

Like a whale in the sea
Who swims day and night
Will eventually rise
To inhale the bright light
