True and lasting love
Starts with friendship
And a blessing above
The friendship is so strong
Friends start to bond
Then soul mates are formed
romance loved and unharmed
Romance into commitment
Deep and lasting love
Is the true nature of love!

When we die

Theresa Hartley-Mace Jun 2020

When we die

Oh my
What happens when we die
No one really knows
Do our souls float up to the sky
Passing the clouds so high
Making a journey above and beyond
Up to the heavens
Hearing beautiful song
Do we get to those golden gates
To register all our fates
Then are we free to roam
Coming back down to our home
Visiting loved ones if we could
Or doing ghostly hauntings Sounds good
Then leave to follow the light
Back to where there’s no day and night
And join the angels in the sky
Is this what happens when we die?

Young love

Theresa Hartley-Mace Jul 2020

Young love

Young sweet dreams
A kiss a cuddle on an icey cold night
Sat on a bench
Too young to be right

Stars were shining
But it was so cold
The fire in them after wining and dining
Kept them warm

Time would tell
With this young pair
But the fate was they fell in love
To their parents despair

They married had children
As young as they were
They didn’t look into the future
Life wasn’t fair

They finally split
Because he was a ***
He’d had an affair !

Who on Earth are We?

Theresa Hartley-Mace Jul 2020

Who on Earth are We?

Who on earth are we?
we are born with nothing
in our bare skin
we die with nothing
leaving our kin
we are the only species on this earth
that live, give birth
and pray on each other
who on earth are we?

Domestic Abuse

Theresa Hartley-Mace Nov 2024

Domestic Abuse

She lay there
On the bed
She looked like a corpse
Battered and bruised
Yet again

He sat down beside her
And into her face
He said she was his
And this is the case

He strangled her softly
As she lay there
Unconscious
He planned to **** her
If she didn’t submit

He wasn’t going to share her
In this world or the next
But did he really care?
He’s a ****** I swear!

Inspired by a recent friends horrific abuse!

My son I pray

Theresa Hartley-Mace Dec 2024

My son I pray

Please let him be safe and sound
On his journey home
Homeward bound
Where he roam
To the place
He wants to live
A base
With
Beauty
And
His son!

Freeeezzzing

Theresa Hartley-Mace Feb 6

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

Tantric love

Theresa Hartley-Mace Jul 2020

Tantric love

Tantric love is to feel the love of oneself,
Is deep inside the mind
And mentally confined
And from your memories trapped inside
And with the neurons in the brain
all sparking, at the same time,
together, in coalition,
instilling the feeling of love for oneself,
a feeling of self wealth,
and happiness and good health,
Experience the world just move as its hurled,
That's tantric love! So I've heard!!!!!

Its good to appreciate and love oneself! Its good to be alive!

Inspired

The wind blows hard today, blasting the trees!
And the rain is here to stay, washing the ground!
It’s like Mother Nature is angry and trying to blow us all away, like a hurricane, I’d say,
But amidst it all, the grass is greener and the trees wave their leafy green arms,
The sky is bright with thick white clouds
And play their part like a massive shrowd!
The evergreens are celestial,
And the Meadow grass grows far and green,
Which sets the scene of the rich green colour
In the meadow garden!

Without you

Theresa Hartley-Mace Feb 7

Without you

You awake from your aided sleep
Respirator blowing
Alarms were going
They’re so annoying
I ask how you’re feeling
And you’re ok today
Better than yesterday
Better than the day before
I tell you I love you more
You apologise for the last few days
They are just a haze
But you know it’s really ok
You tell me you love me
And you couldn’t do without me
I stay because you’re my soul mate
You’re my world , my everything
So no matter what I’m here for you
Don’t ever go or leave this world
Or I’ll be lost without you!
I never doubt you
You’re my rock
You keep me going
You have faith in me
Whatever I do and where ever I’m going
Knowing
You are here with me!
I would find it very difficult to live without you!
Like the song
“I can’t live if living is without you! “
Too true!
I just love you!
