Love
Donna Oct 2017
Love will always be
the way forward no matter
what journey you take


An old poet friend once wrote a poem saying how he falls in love everyday because that is the kind of guy he is..I wished I had listen to him more maybe we'll still be friends today..even if u r lacking love in your life , please never give up on it , keep looking , keep searching and try to learn to love yourself along the way <3

Lost love
Donna Jun 2017
Once upon a time
In castle far far away
Lived a king called kong

Wandering alone
Preferring his own quiet
He become lonesome

Until one spring day
Down by warm sparkling pond
A girl was fishing

He watched her for days
But never had the courage
To vocal hello

Instead he left notes
full of his undying love
Hoping she'd find them

But the days passed fast
And winter quickly arrived
Blowing notes away

One cold day at pond
Kong found a wrapped up parcel
Dressed in pink paper

With his big soft hands
He slowly unwrapped parcel
And inside was note

Scented like flowers
He saw the words 'I love you'
And fell to his knees

On the back of note
Her sweet writing said 'why hide'
Tell me you love me

Kong knew his mistake
If only he'd been more brave
Things would've be different
Short story i made up about lost love sometimes like to write stories,  love imagination :-)

Little ant (haiku)
Donna Aug 2017
Little Ant climbing
up a strand of summer grass
balancing at top

Had a little dance
then wonders how to get back down to muddy earth

Windbreaker blowing
like a sideway trampoline
Wham! The ant takes leap
sunbathing outside and I saw tiny ant and had a moment with nature x

It's a nice feeling
Donna Nov 2017
Looking in the distance
At the  flat ocean
The sky takes a dip
And both the sky
And the ocean
Make a perfect straight line
Tiny boats for small people
Sail along quietly
Into the sunset
They sail sail sail
Never looking backwards
Only forward
For when they return to shore
I wonder if the fishes
Surface just to take a peek
At the humans
I wonder if they can speak
And what language
Is bubbling
Inside there bubbles
It's just a thought that's all
But it was a nice feeling
And nice feelings
Are rather beautiful
Just like the big ocean

Venting :) myhaikudiary
Donna Mar 2018
I woke in a mood
Had a right good old shout out
About messsy house

When I have to work
Much house chores just sit around
Not moving so still

Collecting soft dust
O I fed up with messy
house..I'm now on strike

So I plonked washing
on floor near washing machine
Said to my children

do your own washing
I'm no Wonder Woman I'm
half a century old

O okay in mid-
August i be fifty and
even more moany :)

When my mood had calmed
I carried on with my chores
As I felt better

Just needed to have
shout out , hmmm maybe me and
Dean should visit Spain

Where the Ocean is
blue and the sand is golden
And the sun is hot

Where peddle boats sail
along giggling waves and kites
float like spring flowers

O I want to dip
my toes into a swimming
pool drinking Bailys

Ah feel much calmer
now , I best go get ready
We have a party

Me Dean and children
are off to dance all night long
Yay..free bar as well :))))

Once upon a time
In a faraway land lived
a miserable girl

Nothing was ever good
enough for her , she always
wanted more and more

Lets just say bigger
and better seemed more tidy
Clean and Glorious

''Twas a rainy day
She walked into a forest
Where darkness blossomed

No light through the trees
Only bottom trunks of trees
seemed to pass her eye

She became scared in
the darkness , howling noises
seeped through her soft ears

Her mind became a
circus , elephant shadows
danced with a cold breeze

Together twirling
frantically until the rain
pelted down on earths ground

Tis then in distance
she saw twinkly light , her
eyes summed up diamonds

Even in her darkest
hour her greed took over
her genuine side

She ran towards the
light and was disappointed
The moon danced with pond

Ha ha spoke a voice
My dear girl it's time you changed
Love is awaiting

Follow the darkness
And when you reach a river
You will see a boat

The girl looked angry
She continue to follow
the darkness with mood

It was only when
she saw the boat that she smiled
It was full of stars

Each one so shiny
her heart bloomed a garden of
award winning blooms

Each star contained a
memory , her ancestors
spoke with such wisdom

Ah young girl you must
now live your life with love in
your greedy red heart

Otherwise you will
be banish to live alone
forever in dark

Where demons will haunt
you even when you sleep on
white cotton pillow

You must love insects
And humans and the sun and
moon as well as you

Stop hating yourself
Let go of your yesterday's
And live happily

The girl got into
the boat and sailed down the big
flowing brown river

Fishes jumped up
in the air over her head
Singing songs of love

A cloud in distance
Dispersed in millions bits
Butterflies fluttered

She shyly stepped on
land into a meadow of
sweet dandelions

She saw fluffy sheep
And a sky of flying crows
Surround a scarecrow

Tis then she knew her
life would be very different
She walked towards the

scarecrow who was dressed
in old rags and stuffed with straw
and wore an old hat

She reconized the
hat to be that of her late
father , a tear fell

upon her soft cheek
and for the first time ever
She grieved for her dad
A story x just love inventing stories x
Take care everyone and remember to smile everyday :-) x

The old lady
Donna Oct 2017
The old lady next door
shuffles along
a leaf covered drive
wearing a green coat
and green matching shoes
as she ventures off to food shopping like she's done everyday!
not that she needed
any more food
but more just to get out the house
and feel the nature fresh air
upon her tired skin!
Everday she either goes
to Morrison or Tesco
mainly for a chat
she's love meeting and talking
to everyone.
She's ninety one years old
and nothing holds her back
she's fought skin cancer
with such bravery
she is truly a lovely rainbow
full of wondeful colourful
smiles **
Inspired by my next door neighbour who is 91 and as strong as an ox her determination inspires me no end x

I don't normally write longer poems but lately it just feels okay to do so x
I be working on this one a little more x

Me and Dean went out
last night we had a great time
Drinking and dancing

But I've got a worse
hangover my head is full
of doziness fudge

Yeap it's melted like
snowdrops fallen to earth on
a cold winters day

But i managed to
somehow cook a roast dinner
how I just don't know!!

The potatoes were
soggy the veg quite hard , but
the gravy was tasty

We danced and danced all
night long to pretty voices
from super cool songs

My feet began to
ache o no I'm growing old
by every second

Brandy and coke filled
my shiny glass than went to
my brain and smiled wide

Goggle slurp goggle
O what a noisy drink , slurp
slip gulp gulp goggle

Dean drank lots of beer
and so did our sons there sweet
laughter filed the air

Everytime trouble
went down as there was two fights
Dean alerted bouncers

Too many drink to
much than want to start fights , o
what silly pickles

But Dean made sure we
had best night my hero my
man my best friend too

At 3 o clock this
morn we went to macdonalds
and stuffed our faces

I had cheese burger
and chips and Diet Coke , Dean
had quarter pounder

The wind was chilly
And we walked from Saturday
to Sunday in shoes

It's been a lazy
day my house is quite messy
but the air is kind

Me and dean had a
great time last night , so bottoms
up to a new week
Hangover all day but dean wanted to take me out last night and it was so fun xxxxx
Have a lovely new week :)

My best friend
Donna Jun 2017
torch shone so brightly
as I lay under bed quilt
reading beano book

I read every line
checking out every picture
gnasher was my fav

I remember feel
of soft flannelette sheets
touching my young skin

when morning arrived
the bright sun seep through window
putting on live show

I watch wallpaper
come alive like orange sun
ready to start day

nanny shared a room
with me and sis , she snored like
a fierce lawn mower

her third set of teeth
slept in fizzy beaker cup
her gurney smile smiled

every morning she
got up early to catch bus
to take her to work

she smelled of freshly
grown spring flowers that lingered
joyfully all day

she was my summer
all year round , her flowery
frocks cute as petals

a tea lady she
was , poured tea all day long from
her golden trolley

appreciation
felt from every given cup
of tea  , wet lips smiled

her chocolate hair wrapped
neatly in hair net , her sweet
cleanliness top form

but soon she would be
replaced by vending machines
technogly bloomed  

to me she was my
best friend , she gave me tiny
wings to practice on

once in a while
her memory steps forward
making me sing loud

She left me a love
full of happiness which still
glows brightly today
Loved my nan very much she was a delightful wonderful lady x
Donna Feb 2018
so we checked our list
of how many family
and friends are coming

we then realised we
went over our set number
Oh my panic bloomed

how did this happen
we hadn't thought it through and
now cold winter laughs

so we yelled and yelled
released all our bad tension
Then went off to eat

Yeap food is a warm
cozy good feel making all
our bellies smile wide

*** I had
no idea organising
a wedding is hard

invites sent out , hen
holiday now booked , diet
keeps walking away!!!

Birthdays coming up
my brain is going to pop
Coffee *** empty!

My new word this week
'Dysfunctional family'
Yeap we are all mad

But in good way too
We have our say , then it's back
to normality

Did I just say the
word normality , does that
word even exist

A good row clears the
air , Tis an old qoute my mum
use to say..it works!!

the sky is still grey
outside , the trees are still bare
The wind is icy

Me and Dean hold hands
Another day over , a
new day begins too

The sky is clear and
mellow , clouds drift softly sweet
The sun shines brightly

Birds fly in sky high
Raindrops splash into twinkles
And the flowers grow
Oh my I had no idea how stressful getting married can be but all is okay lots been sorted now so it just waiting now till the big day xxxxxxx

Sunday morn - myhaikudiary
Donna Apr 2018
I woke this morning
to a window of raindrops
falling gently down

Tis a Sunday morn
And I can hear a pigeon
coo cooing in tree

All the daisies are
wet and shivering and car
tyres are swishing

I can hear my son
opening a bag of crisp
Hey that's not breakfast!!

If it rains all day
I don't mind today because
spring is blossoming

When it rains the grass
glistens too it's quite lovely
Like night stars glowing

There's a heat wave on
it's way so the weather dudes
say , the sun will shine

Yay I get to wear
my flipflops and summer hat
Watch out for the bees :)
Happy Sunday :)
