At 40 life began
Went surfing and bought a supra sports car
The fast and furious one
At 45 I remarried a wonderful man
Still together like birds of a feather
At 50 we stayed at Rick Steins , I’m a fan
At 55 I bought a bungalow, yeh I know!
At 60 we had a party to celebrate
To get this far and not be late
At 65 I’m still alive,
I am !
I arrived just in time
He was on his way
In his wife’s arms
I wrapped my arms around them both
She was in a panic not knowing
I told her he was going
and was on his way
He finally passed away
it was such a sad day
Happy I could be there
To give my love and care
I used to be a cancer care nurse and this situation was quite common, very emotional, ! A lot of sadness! Bless!
My poetry and prose is coming back
Way hey
It’s raining hard I need a Mack
Way hey
It’s gone so dark it’s turning black
Way hey
If it keeps on raining I’ll start to quack
Way hey!
I’m writing poetry on my throne
You didn’t really want to know that
It’s quiet here
Infact the silence is hissing
Oh that’s my tinnitus
The bulb has blown
So it’s dark
It’s peaceful
It’s cool
It’s quiet
Nice!
He he I really do have a throne, it was from our re enactments days our friend gave it to us when they moved house! I love it!
And in the darkness all alone, I sit outside on the garden seat looking up at the stars,
Wondering what’s out there,
We know about the milkyway and mars,
And I can name but a few twinkly stars
Pluto, Saturn, Uranus, Jupiter of course mars
There’s satellites, of that we know
And the odd aircraft  flying low
But what about the UFO
Or things out there that we will never know ?
This morning it was dark , so dark
Not a sound abound not even a lark
I looked out but there was nothing to see
The black velvet darkness
was there in front of me
Like if I’d closed my eyes
and gone to sleep !
Think it was the contrast of seeing the hunter moon on previous nights , it just looked exceptionally dark!
The Hunters moon was amazing
It lit up the sky
It had me gazing
I wished I could fly
But I wouldn’t try
My heart was racing
Looking up high
In that beautiful sky
Just simply amazing !
