Dreams
My dreams are so vivid
They’re like a story to me
Sometimes it’s a wonky house
And then I’m by the sea
I’m swimming around
Or climbing the rocks
Or sat in the sand
Filling my chops
Seagulls fly by
My pasty catches their eye
They swoop down
But ha just too late
I’ve eaten the plate
Then I’m lost
Looking for the way
But hey it doesn’t matter
Because it fills the day!
I go shopping but hmmm
The shops are just Wierd
How they just appeared
Up and down steps
Doors open and shut
Try find the shop I want
Then the film just says cut!

Sun and Rain
How could we just complain
about the sun and rain
when we need them both so much
to keep us all alive as such
but there is no equilibrium to gain
as we just get far too much rain
and when the sun comes out
its rays they seem to pout
but how can we complain?

My safe place
I walk down the winding stairs of marble stone
holding onto the bannister as I go down
wearing a beautiful floaty dress
and as I get to the ground
its peaceful quiet without a sound
there in front of me  is a big old wooden door
I open the door and walk in to a beautiful room
its light is dimmed with a purple hue
there is a seat of purple velvet
where I sit and rest
And as I stroke the soft smoothen velvet
it makes me feel so calm and cool
then after a while I walk across the room to the French doors
I open up the pretty doors
I walk through to a beautiful garden
with sunshine and a gentle breeze
perfect and sure to please
the flowers are all amazing
the smell is a delight
delicious wisteria
wonderful carnations
the roses are incredible
the scent is so wonderful
and there right there
amongst the beauty is my bench
I sit for a while
it makes me really smile
I rest and I chill
And relax at my own will
Its a place in my heart
Its beautiful art
and an escape  just for me
and a safe place to be!
just for me

Rainbow lights
The colours of the rainbow
Or the colours that I know
Red and yellow and pink and green
orange and purple and blue
Flashing alternately
twinkling at night with a beautiful hue
Sat in the hot jacuzzi alone with you!

More Sleep
My eyes sting
I need some sleep
I’ll close my eyes
And off to the deep
Dark world of dreams
Nothing is what it seems
But it’s Where I am free
to explore
I snore
I sleep
So deep
I want more
More sleep!

Good Morning
The cool air
Feels like water to my toes
The sun it out
And brings out the sparkle in Every living thing
The trees, the leaves and the grass
Are being showcased by the sun
The garden is quietly alive with a gentle breeze
Today I think is going to please
it’s going to be a lovely day
I feel it in my bones!
Yet it’s so peaceful and quiet
So calm and relaxed
As everything slowly wakes
The day is dawning
And here it is
A very good morning!
Happy Easter to everyone
Yesterday Good Friday I saw a white swan
As We went to Newstead Abbey
Me and Moose my baby
It was fish for tea
Well it was for me
Today is Easter Saturday
I have to say
It’s the Eggs today
Not chocolate for me
Despite I plea
Boiled fried or scrambled eggs
Not chocolate Easter eggs
But hey do we know the history
It’s all such a mystery
But we should still give it thought
The son of God has risen we were taught
Is what they really say
So Easter is a happy day
Let’s pray and let there be peace
Cos one day we will all decease!
Happy Easter one and all
Eat those eggs and have a ball!
Love to all! I am a Christian but still trying to work it out? I like the concept of Buddha and I like Paganism! I love trees and all I want is love and peace 💖

Its sleeting
The rain has gone to sleet
It’s coming down a treat
Adding to the snow
Very soggy now you know

It was slippery out the other day
But now it’s slutch and the kids can’t play
No more snowmen to be built
It may just freeze so get under your quilt
Nothing ever stays the same
Things come and go to pass
Life is but a game
But In it’s own shape and mass!
Theres an Inevitably
to what’s going to happen
What will be will be

Dolphins
Dolphins
are beautiful creatures
Their skin
feels smooth and firm
They’re strong
They’re clever
They’re fun
They play
They talk
To each other
Dolphins
are beautiful creatures!
Nothing in life is black and white
Even day going to night
what lies beyond this world were in?
Are there ghosts or is it the gin?
Where do all our loved ones go?
Would we really like to know!
Are there aliens or are they akin?
and what form are they in?
Is there really a parallel universe
Lots of questions in my verse
Is there reincarnation
Returning back to our nation!
Nothing is black and white
I guess we'll never know, alright

The night Run
I’m off and away
Like the wind
I feel a ray of sunshine
Fueling my plight

Flying along like a kite
The air is fresh
The mood is right
Where everything is quiet

A beautiful night
Just the owls out hunting
Nature awakes there’s
A moonlight sky

Running briskly
I fly along
In my head there’s a song
An ear worm

Moving quickly on
Now I am gone
In to the night
As I leisurely run!

We’re only human!
We’re all the same
We’re only human
No one to blame
We’re only human
Equal in our fathers eyes
We’re only human
Colour and creed are irrelevant
We’re only human
we have but one life
We’re only human
Past is past
We’re only human
Love for now
We’re only human
Love, be kind and live for now
We’re only human
There’s a brighter future for us to see
We’re only human!
Did you know we’re the only species that preys on our own ! Perhaps animals know more than we do! ‘‘Tis them who are intelligent!!!! Who are we?????? Animal stick together and support each other!

Stressss
They say stress , oh yes
is what we do to ourselves
self inflicted
And that you can be in control
don’t let it get you!
Tell it to go!
You are in charge you know!!!

Stress is a feeling
That gets you up
And  helps you get going
But stress can mess
With your emotions
Your mind
So try to be kind
To your body and mind
Send the stress away
Before you turn grey!

Only love
Be careful what you say and give
Only love
Be careful what you do and give
Only love
Be careful how you react and give
Only love
Be careful what you wish for and give
Only love
Be careful what you think and give
Only love
Don’t take those worries to bed
Try understand what I’ve just said
Just don’t takes those worries to your bed
Write them down and put them away
Until the morning of very next day
You need your sleep without the worry
So rest and sleep now try to hurry
Sleep is important to us all
If you don’t sleep you sure will fall
What can you do about your worries
When you are asleep you’ll have no quarries !
Imran and I have published a poetry book together ‘Natures smile ‘ on Kindle and Amazon! Imran has also published a beautiful book ‘Tears to God ‘on Kindle and Amazon !

Take A Seed
Take a seed
A tiny little thing indeed
And Plant it in a ***
The best that you have got
And see what will grow
Water it well
With a little bit of kindness, sunshine and rain,
it should bloom and grow again
In to a plant, a flower or whatever you devour!
Take the seed
You will succeed!
The apple tree by the wall
Has worked so hard to produce some fruit
Her number of apples only small
Beautiful and rosey
One and all!

The rain has gone
The rain has gone,
The sun is breaking through,

Its a beautiful evening,
With a bright shiny sky,

The birds are out singing,
And the flowers have bloomed,

It maybe the evening,
but out comes the beauty the sunshine will bring,

The bees are back buzzing,
Dragon flies in flight,

What a wonderful end of a day,
It should be a good night!

Hello
Hello from me to all of you
One of the things on my bucket list
I'd really like to do

We'd have a ball and read our poetry too!
Hello Poetry is absolutely awesome! Thank you so so much!

Opens up the world
Not just a mile
It brightens up every morsel in the world
Every pile
Of misery
For a while
So share
A smile!

This world
Our world right now
Is suffering
Disasters
Wars
Politics

What can we say
Here’s another day

Our world right now
Is struggling
In nature
In nurture

What can we say
Here’s another day

Our world right now
Is dying
Slaughtered by warmongers
And mismanaged by politics

What can I say
Here’s another day

Stop fighting and killing start listening to each other, come to a compromise and respect one and all!

What can I say
Here’s another day

This world will be ending because it’s now bending and heading for a fall!
From Mother Nature with disasters to managing the ruling of the world and all!

What can I say
Here’s another day!
Not sure if this is pc????

Rain ☔️ Again
A bien, another wet day,
Pluit  a verse!
So the French would say,
Feeling the raindrops upon my skin,
Trickling gently down my arm
Feels like a feather as it touches
Down to my fingertips through my palm
What a sensational feeling is the rain
As it touches I feel no pain
As I drip warm water To the ground
More and more raindrops fall
As They climber down without a sound
Feeling soaked but that’s not all
The clothes on me cling
Wet to the skin
Time to get dried off at home
Out of the rain, let it all drain!

Pathos in January
Pathos in January

The rain comes down!
In Pathos town,
It’s very wet,
We might just drown,

It’s cold it’s wet
But the drink is warming
There no insect
But the cats are swarming 

The floors getting wet
The towels are down
Mopping up the rain
So staying put, not going to town!

Inner peace
Find yourself a quiet place
To sit down and chill
somewhere safe within
to relax as you will!

Take a deep breathe in
and breathe it out slowly
Relax, calm and peaceful be
have some inner peace for yourself just wholly!

The thing to do next is in what you will see
Close your eyes
and look inside your lids
It will be no surprise, when you close your eyes,

You might just be seeing black
or you may see some colours
Oh I take that one back
You may also see shapes!

Keep breathing in and out
keep very quiet
And do not shout
now what you should do,

is take yourself to a place in your mind
what you will chose I don't haven't a clue
somewhere safe
somewhere for you!

Go to the place of your inner peace
Where wonderful things will never cease
Be kind to yourself
And look after your health

Relax now and let it be.
I give you inner peace to you from me.

Trees
Trees are so beautiful
I could hug a tree
some are very old
Older than me
And some have been there many years
So if they could talk or if they could see
They'd know a lot
From history!

Dying and Gone
Life is not immortal
Life ends and we leave through the portal
But we all want to hold on
We miss all those who have gone
And departed from this world

It’s a frightening concept
But we have to accept
We don’t know what’s out there
Belief helps to bear
Our fate and our fear !

Pen and paper
A beautiful feather ink pen
Some gorgeous thick cream paper
You can’t beat them
Write a letter
Of how you feel
With beautiful hand writing
Something real
Beautifully scripted
With thought and feeling
Something to keep
Something to hold
In your hands and feel the love
And read with your eyes and see
How beautiful it is to me!

What a Treat
Lockdown still and with all my will I just wanna sleep! With a broken leg and ankle I can’t do much anyway so hey what’s it today! Three thirty in the afternoon and I’ve been brought a treat! Spicy *** and coke hey it’s nice and sweet! It helps the painkillers work! I know I’ve been a Burke! And even at home I still have to work. Some would say that’s good! I’d give it all up if I could! I love writing poems, it truly is such fun! Because I can’t go out for a run! Don’t think I would anyway! Im a A couch potato I would say! The most I used to do is walk the dog it’s true!

Feelings and Thoughts
Feelings and thoughts
Thoughts and feelings
Good thoughts and bad
Best that you had
Be mindful, be thoughtful be true to yourself
Consider others but look after your health
Negativity *****
Positivity hooks
Don’t make assumptions or assume something bad
Because if you do you will end up sad
Stay positive and happy
Or just remain sappy
And love yourself
As you would anyone else!
Were all the same
No ones to blame!

Freeeezzzing
It’s freezing out there today
Nought degrees is what they say
Wrapped up warm hat, coat and wellies on
For a little walk with my Moose so sweet
Making it short so frost doesn’t bite her feet
We agreed time to go back
The cold we just could just not hack
My toes were froze
And so was my nose
Her bare feet on the thick sparkly white frost
Made her move more quickly like a ghost
Onwards home
Into the warm
Hat on head
But back to bed!
Moose is my baby ( dog)  Bijon cross with a poodle

Our Winter Garden
The holly bush has a few red berries left
Where the robins visit from their nest
And enjoy the suet ***** and the dried up worms I’ve left

The squirrel has gone no where to be seen and has taken the coconut half
To feed his family I guess!

Oh yes but it’s quiet, peaceful and still in our winter garden!

Or What?
What is this world coming to?
Fighting, killing and destruction is not the answer!
Surely there could be some compromise
To come up and rise
Above the death and destruction

Mother Nature is fighting back
Volcanic eruption
Floods and all
Do you hear her call?

The world needs to calm down
The world needs love
The world needs respect
Or what?

Little by little the world will destruct
If we all don’t respect one another
And love one another
And respect the earth we stand on
And love and cherish our world!

Or what?

Love one another
And respect our world!
Or what?
It’s horrendous all the fighting killing and destruction surely with our advances there could be some compromise and unity and peace! Love is powefull  and should be shared we should help each other share with each other and calm the beast ! Compassion and compromise
Let there be peace or the world we know will cease!

Oh natural
Hug a tree
Yes that is me
Talk to the plants
Tell them your rants
Don’t **** the ants
No don’t want them in my pants
Skinny dip, Is still quite hip
Walk in the garden naked under the light of the moon
Love to try it and quite soon!
Yes yes I do talk to the plants , actually they’re like triffids now! Massive! That’s probably cos I talk too much he he!!!!!

Behind closed doors
Always look super slim
neat and tidy slick and spam
Wear fitted clothes tight to the skin
Clear the kids toys up before he came in
Be at his beck and call
But that’s not all
Yes sir, no sir
He didn’t care
His other women
So glad they were there
Big relief when he wasn’t here
Divorced at twenty three
Forty years ago
Left with two babies
Them and me!
Behind closed doors
You couldn’t see the sores!

Now I learn
With Much discern
A friend has been going through
Just like What I went through
Behind closed doors!
You couldn’t see the sores!

Well she’s a mess
I say, I bless
Emaciated
Confused
Battered and bruised
No one knew
Behind closed doors
You can’t see the sores!

His control
He did foil
But she always looked so good
Behind closed doors
You can’t see the sores!

Why would we suspect?
but I guess we should
It all came to no good!
Our old friend our bud
We tried to pull her up, but Twas no good
She’s a broken woman
A damaged soul
Behind closed doors
You just can’t see the sores!
So sad our friend has been to hell and back for many years but no one knew as it was all  behind closed doors

Losing my best friend
We had so much fun
All those years ago
And as you know
I love you so

I know we’re not immortal
We all have to go sometime
But sadly we now know
Soon you will go

Off To the beautiful palace in the sky
Where the good go to rest
The big c has spread
Soon you’ll be gone

We’ve just got to face
And With my arms I embrace
All that you are and were so brave
You’ll never be forgotten

You’ll always be in my heart
We will all miss you
So now I shall kiss you
And bid you a farewell

You’ll take a piece of my heart
When you depart
Please wait for me
In time I will follow

And we’ll meet up there
On a twinkly star
High in the sky
When I eventually die

I love you !
I will miss you!
My friend is battling with cancer and sadly losing the battle she’s so brave bless her!

Turn around

A bit crazy but why not!
I feel I want to write Just now

It’s sunny now after a dull start,
Brightness fills my heart,
The sun uplifts my mood,
I’m sitting here looking at the garden,
Lush green, birds singing, it isn’t just a dream,
The forecast is thunder,
There’s thunder in my soul,
The buttercups are bright yellow,
The Christmas tree is dying,
This has left me sighing,
I need to plant it somewhere else instead,
The holly bushes have gone rife,
But that is of course no strife,
And the bamboo is quite awesome it’s spread and well fed it’s a treat to see,
We have a lot of green
In our garden in-between the
meadow type of grass,
And Within it own best class!
The sun lifts up my mood! Brightens up my mind! Makes me want to smile!

Why?
Why do people steal?
They’re just not right!
They’re just not real!
They cause pain, how would they feel ?
When they just have to ask !

But hackers!
Computer attackers!
They’re just cruel!

Why do people ****?
Why do people fight?
Why do people commit crime?
It just is not right!

What a world we live in ?
Full of anger and sin!
Nothing is perfect!
And nor it ever will!

I only hope there’s a heaven
And hope that there’s a hell
Who knows
You can never tell!
I’m sick of people hacking me! I just keep thinking .... karma will get them!
I’m just to trusting but not any more!!!!!

Positivity
I had a dream
It was so  surreal
I blew away
All my negative thoughts
Like blowing petals off the stalks
And In the forest as the pathway falks
I take the route
Of positive thoughts
I follow it for a while
And when I arrive
I start to smile
All the negativity has gone away
So now I can enjoy
A lovely day! ♥️

Dreaming
Close your eyes
And go to sleep
Feel your spirit rise
Take yourself deep
into the skies
Take a leap
Where your body flies
Don’t you peep

Now you’re dreaming
Fast asleep and very calm
So it’s seeming
Floating the clouds with outstretched arms
A sheer delight You’re beaming
Hearing angels sing their psalms
Now the sun is streaming
Your body warms!

And down you come
To a gentle sleep
Out of Rem where
You were only dreaming!
