EUROPE

Chaos theories all abound.
Wait and see just what we found.
The leash released.
Power balance changed.
Let's keep it brief.
Take a breath.
Seek relief.
The waters will soon become clear.
My love be sent to those so near.
So far.
Now may we fly on freedoms wings.
Look to tomorrow see what she brings.

GOING HOME?

Sitting on the station.
I'm trying to find my bed.
My eyes droop near redundant.
Perhaps 3/4's dead.
Should I want a train to Newcastle I'll get there in a bit.
Due to rotten weather,the train service is *hit.
If I want to go to London town, okay it's a city.
To sum up my feelings this morning the trains aren't very pretty.
I saw no rain,
Nor heard a storm.
Guess maybe I was busy.
My head this morning is just a little fuzzy.

After severe storms my train was cancelled. I had just finished a night shift.

SALUTE THE SILENCE .

The silencing of summer.
The day the birds no longer sang.
The children were all muffled.
Kept indoors.
The bombers finished bombing, as they were not allowed.
The country stood on firm feet.
Altogether proud.
Salute the silence.

RAINDROPS AND ROSES, DRIPPING FROM NOSES

Stringing stars across the sky.
Before your very eyes.
Twisted into cats cradles.
******* in bands of sparkles.
Raindrops twinkle as they drip.
On to the pad I write upon.
The ink dispersed into patterns,
Pretty ones that glint.
Words washed out of soggy paper.
Emotions washed away.
Writing pad is ripped and torn.
Wonder where those words have gone.
Lost in a shower of imperfection.

PEANUT DREAMS

She sleeps ever gentle on his mind.
Amid his thoughts and fiery dreams.
He shells peanuts with his teeth, to feed her daily.
A protein fix.
He is enough to fill her kind heart, with roses scarlet red..
Twisted and turned into a perfect crown.
Their thorns destroy her, as round her head they tighten.
He swears he never meant to frighten.

CONTROL AND DISRESPECT

I stepped outside the room today.
I dared not say goodbye.
Inside my heart is breaking.
I left my keys inside my bag.
They open up my heart.
My paperwork is locked away entirely with my love.
No longer can I stay.
And I take the raw love you say you have,
puncturing my body, like a vampire I receive your killing stake.
And give it back to you my son.
Maybe you'll think.
He whose name be Andrew.
Draining me.
You took the life force from me.
I creep away silently,
Unnoticed.
My tail tucked between my legs.
I cannot bear the disrespect and thus right now I doth regret.
The things I have are nothing much.
I worked my life for nothing left.
As lifting mist I now have left.
I left my spirit in a glass jar.
You may not realise what you've done.
I've been ****** dry I guess you won.

FLOWERS

Flowers reach for heaven to feel the rippling rain.
To ****** the sun on cooler days.
Above the snow those flowers grow, protected petals,
Avid flower lovers steal them.
Put them in glass vases.
Give them to mothers or lovers.
A simple gift that means the world.
Or better still keep them well pressed between the heavy books.
While man is given flowers, the world will be alright.
Bright and stunning, ad infinitum.
May flowers always grow.
