i joined a poetry site so i could  write a rhyme
to help to ease my mind while passing on the time
there a lots of people here who do the same as me
devoting there free time to share there poetry
there are different poems that the people write
some are full of sadness others with delight
but each and every poet has a different way
they put down in words what they want to say
so god bless all the poets who give there time so free
without all these people this site it would not be

undress me with your naked eyes
a skeleton can tell no lies
but hide the truth
from sleeping spies
to know nothing
is all thats wise.

i was a suit
was always worn
i knew not what else to adorn
my soul with but that shoty form
ive died and im reborn.

nuclear ranting
nivek Feb 2015
the twig snapped between thumb and finger
a tree died limbless leafless and dead-rooted
the birds will not sing from broken branches
green refused to sway or rustle in the wind
and all the people sheltered burned to a crisp
beneath the canopy of a disintegrated forest
nuclear wrangling they pressed another button
and this time they signed it goodbye godbless you
A Priest blessed the bomb that wiped out  Hiroshima ... years later he realised and recounted what he had done.

You are beautiful inside and out, yet smart to making a change in life when needed and strong for living another day surrounded by negativity. You are a very special kind of person so keep your smile bright and your time vauled because youll never know when its time to go to your desitny..

the angels came for ken today
with his wings he flew away
up to heaven high above
the funny man that we all love.

he gave us fun and made us smile
brought us joy made life worthwhile
with his diddy men we got know
the lord he called him time to go

his funny hair and tickling stick
all his jokes so fast and quick
a favourite son from knotty ash
from liverpool who made a splash

the song he sang of happiness
goodnight sir ken godbless

Bad to Better
SarahJane Apr 2019
My Demons are trying to taunt me mum, I constantly feel them pushing through. Maybe it's caused by the way I feel, maybe it's because I miss you.

I miss you every day mum, with every beat of my heart. Although I always knew the day would come, the day we had to part.

I never thought you would leave so soon, I wasn't even 30 and you were gone. You never should of left mum, it's here where you belong.

You will always hold a place in my heart, please believe that this is true. Ill always hold a happy place, I can go to think of you.

I cannot seem to grieve mum, nearly two years I have tried. My pain won't seem to get easier mum, it's still as sore as the day you died.

I wish I could stop the pain mum, and just remember the great memories so true. Of love and laughter and dancing round the house, the crazy times just me and you.

I'd love someone to help me, make the bad thoughts and Demons go away, and help me focus on the good memories forever every day.

There are days I have good thoughts, from memories over the years. The ones that make me laugh and smile, yet still bring me to tears.

Before I go on I have to share, a few memories that make me smile. One's that help me through a bad day, even just for a little while.

I remember snowball fights in winter, back walking in the summer. Coming home soaked and covered in mum, then going back and doing it over.

I remember you shouting and laughing at me, soaked and covered in mud those days when I came home. Making me sit outside til I dried off, looking like a little garden gnome.

I remember being in Scarborough and walking with you and dad, making sylvester speech sounds making you laugh so bad.

I remember you lent over, laughing so hard out loud, those days we had were magical, u always looked at me so proud.

You're other little girl is getting married mum, I can't believe it's true, she knows you will be there with her mum, she really misses you.

She knows you will be with her, when she walks down the Isle, she knows you're there in spirit mum, watching with pride and a smile.

I'm trying to push my life forward mum, I hope that you can see, and when the day comes that I get married mum, I hope you are there with me.

I'm going to write off now mum, i really need to sleep, ill see you in my dreams mum, with the memories I keep.

Goodnight, godbless, sleep well mum.
I love you oh so true,
Sending love and kisses to the stars,
Sent from me to you.

I love you mum xxxx

I had a dream about you last night mum
Where I finally got to say,
How much I love and miss you
Each and every day.

They say time is a healer mum
And the memories will always be real,
But neither time nor memories
Can change the pain I feel.  

The pain is ever so real mum
It gets harder in every way,
Even though I know you're not in pain
And we'll meet again one day.

I fear I'm losing some memories mum
Some seem to have gone astray,  
Apart from the memory of the night we lost you
The night you went away.  

That memory haunts my dreams mum
I wish it would go away,
I know my mind is repeating it
As I long for you day by day.

I long for just one moment
To hear you call my name,
And tell me that you love me
And hear me say the same.  
  
Until that day comes mum
Goodnight,
Godbless,
Be free.

Sleep well until we meet again,
With love to you from me.

My Mum, My Best Friend
