Tick tock time
Tick Tock
Tick Tock
Time
Is ticking
away
each and every day!

How long have we got?
How long can we stay?
Will we have another day?
Will we live?
Will we die?

We are all dying everyday!
Make the most of life
I only pray!
Tomorrow will be
Another day!

Here today,
Gone tomorrow!

Tick Tock
Tick Tock
Time
Is ticking
Away
Each and every day!
We are all aware of our mortality, life's too short to waste it ! I try to enjoy my life every day! Life's just too short! Enjoy!

Aye yes me
aye yes me

Went for a walk with Moose in the rain
Anyone would think we’re going in sane
Now we’re home we can dry off
Doesn’t help with my cough
My back does ache
I need some cake
Back to bed warm and cosy
With a nice hot chocolate
Under the duvet all snug
as a bug
Yes I aye me
Done for the day
I’d say!!!!!!
It’s an horrible wet day!
February!!!!! Until I broke my leg I used to walk my laphapoo ! She’s gorgeous! Well she walked me!!!! Didn’t matter what the weather! Hopefully soon we can do it again ! 9 weeks today!!!! Airboot off next week!!!!!

It’s a Sunday morning
It’s a Sunday morning
There’s not a soul about
It’s quiet and peaceful
I don’t hear the kiddies shout
The silence is just wonderful
The stars are still out
The sky is black as night
There’s no sunrise yet
It’s Too early yet alright !
I hear an owl a hooting
He’s looking for a bite
I saw a star a shooting
It’s like the middle of the night
But it is early morning
And theres not a single light!
Everyone’s a-sleeping
Because it’s a Sunday morning,
And so we know it’s quite alright!

I’d like to ……
I’d like to skinny dip in a warm open sea
I’d do that  just for me
I’d like to sit in the snow
In a hot tub you know
I’d like to hug all the trees
In the sun lit forest oh please
I’d like to go where the sun shines
And soak it up with a glass of Sauternes wine
That would be divine
I’d like to go cold water swimming
I think it might be slimming
I’d like to dare and do something brave
I’d like to dance on the dance floor
Like never before
I’d just like to!

Patience for you
I’ve always been a patient soul
But with you
It took the toll
My empathy was swamped
The vortex became a hole
And I was falling through
But I have been resurrected
By the many who have helped
And I’m back to being that patient soul
And for you
I’m filling up that hole!

Up with a start
Sunday morning
Up with a start
The cat jumped on me
Nearly stopped my heart
The dog barked with shock
Good heavens it’s only 7 o’clock
Not time to rise just yet
A bit more sleep to get!

Freezing
The ground was all iced over this morning
They say it’s nought degrees
The sky was red and beautiful
but to dread,
red sky in the morning is said
to be a warning
But no puddles just ice
Nice
The pavements were all twinkling
such a beautiful sight ,
Jack Frost has been busy all night!

A cold winters day
It’s now morning but it’s more like night
The day is not even dawning
And that’s not quite right
The sky is filled with sleet and snow
Will it stick we just don’t know
But it’s cold and it’s damp
My bed and my blanket
Are inviting me to stay
But I can’t really spend just the whole day
Cuddled up in the warm
Perhaps a few hours until I’m in form
And ready to face leaving my dorm
To The cold damp and forlorn
Wintery weather on this week day morn!

Let the wind go free
My husband says
Stop eating those sprouts
It’s windy enough outside
Without gusts of wind inside

He goes on to say
Hello brown
Are you coming down
The rest room is this way

And he asks
What’s that odour
I do for tell
It’s the cat

A silent killer
An angry gust
Boy the cat
Must eat some rust
Sorry to be so rude this poem is quite crude but hope it gets some laughs

My mum
Tears of salt
Stream down my face
As I open my Imaginary vault
I do it all with the upmost grace
As I look at my wonderful mother
Her face
The picture of mum my sister and brother
black and white
Mum died not that long ago, I love her so
I miss her
I miss our laughs
I miss her humour
I miss her fun
she was a wonderful mum!

A beautiful world
This world is beautiful
But could be a better place
With love for one another
We’ve really got to face

There is no need for fighting
There is another way
Just Stop the bad back biting
And we will see another day !

No one knows
No one knows
As your love grows
What another is thinking
With whom you are linking
But all said and done
Be honest with the chosen one
If you want to be understood
And for it to become good
And find out if it’s mutual
And if there’s a futual
Love and let love
Be there
If you care
And share!

Snow
Snow snow
We’ve got snow
Thick and lovely
Flakes coming down
But it’s wet under foot
Will it stick
I just don’t know
Will it be white all over
Snow snow snow
All slushy
Sleet sleet sleet
Just wet and slushy
Where’s my snow
I just don’t know!

So tired
Why
So tired
Need
To sleep
Can’t
Keep awake
I fall
Asleep
So deep
I snore
And sleep
A little more!

Meteorite shower
I thought I saw a shooting star
I made a wish
Then I saw more

I thought oh wow
A shooting star
Then I saw more

I kept wishing
Upon that o shooting star
Then I saw more

And someone told me
It was a meteorite shower
Anyway that’s ok
What a wonderful site
Then I saw more!

Voulez vous?

To give!
De moi!

Thank you
It’s warm and cosy
Soft and smooth
Colours are pretty
Like a golden yellow
Is the blanket around me

The feathers of a duck
Sometimes get stuck through my pillow
It’s soft and gentle where I rest my head
The comforts a delight, and feels so mellow!

I appreciate lifes beautiful treats and treasures!
Of comfort and warmth and all its measures
And thankful for all I have and hold
From the Very new to the very old!

Waking up after lockdown!
Waking up after lockdown
Life was getting a bit like, can I say ‘groundhog day’?
Where everything was the same each day,
The monotony was getting painful and boring,
And life didn’t seem to be worth living!
And then suddenly lockdown was lifted!
There’s a world out there!
Places to go!
People to see!
Still some restrictions but staying safe!
But what a change in life?
Enjoyment had gone but it’s back again!
Life is for living,
Life is for fun,
Off out right now for coffee and cake,
Meeting a friend now I am awake!

Your love
Your love lifts me up
Ever since you were a pup
Unconditional love
A beautiful love
Your love is lifting me higher
In front of a beautiful fire
Where night turns to day
I only have to say
Give me a love
And you’re there!

A beautiful world
The twinkly stars in the sky
The shiny bright moon
The green leaves on the evergreen trees
The flowers
The red berries
The holly and the ivy
The sun when it shines
Make the world a celestial place

A place of beauty
A place of peace
A place of love
We can increase

The beauty of the sea and sand
The gentle flowing streams
The forests of green
Are a present to mankind

A place of freedom
A place of love
A place to share
For all who care!
48 · Jul 2020
Thought
Thought?
What did thought do?
Hmmmm?
I love the peace and quiet
So relaxing,
a delight
I close my eyes
I hear no cries
Just quiet
Peace perfect peace
Don’t let it cease
Just slowly increase
This calm and quiet moment

Where does time go?
Where does time go
I really don’t know
Time goes so fast
Where are we going
Where will we be
How long  will it last
Where will we end up
What will we do
Leaving the past behind
Looking to the future
The future you’ll find
Will be here anyway
There’s no way to rewind!
48 · Dec 2024
A Quiet Day today
Perfect peace
Don’t let it cease
Silence is golden
Only to beholden
Time to relax
Time to unwind
Time to snooze
Without the *****!

With every rose
With every Rose 🌹
There is a thorn
Scent to your nose
In the early morn

And when you love someone so deep
And they don’t really know
They’re just asleep
You just have to go

It was only lust
He didn’t care
You lost your trust
And he didn’t share!

The love just wasn’t there!
Fiction really but I guess we can identify this juxtaposition! In my 60 years I can briefly encounter brief memories many years ago in my youth!

My Three Apples
This morning I was sad to see
that my pride and joy
My Red apple one of three
Had been half eaten
So I picked off the other two For me
And left the eaten one for nature to devour!

‘‘Tis the wasps
My husband says
They seem to like my apples
They’ve been nibbling at them for days!
48 · Oct 2020
Future
Look to the future
And what do I see
I see retirement
Looking at me
Sad to relate
Times passing by
Wishing it gone
I say with a sigh!

Then what will I do!
I’ll come back to life
My gardening for true
Walking the dog without any strife
Cooking and cleaning
Writing and dreaming
And of course
More sleep!
48 · Oct 2020
Winter already?
That grey sky
Oh my oh my
Could mean rain
Not rain again
There were  puddles this morning
When the day was dawning
Everything was wet wet wet
But that’s what you get
When the rough weather is here
It’s that time of year
When the leaves have fallen
And the trees are becoming bare
The wind is howling
The temperature has dropped
Oh my goodness it’s winter
Already I am quite shocked!
48 · Dec 2024
It’s mine
It’s mine
I have long desired
It was meant to be
Just for me
It’s mine

It’s mine
But that’s fine
It’s mine
None else’s
But just for me

It’s mine!
She gave a image of what it was like
In the troubled world of war
Sadly Her family were still there
Such sadness and despair
Her sadness she did share
So we gave her all our love
As we listened to her prayer
And hugged her both in turn
And told her we would share
As we offered her our prayer!

Can’t sleep
The mind
Hurling
Burning
Squirming
The body
Twisting
Tossing
Turning
Can’t sleep

Thinking
Worrying
So deep

Tired
Unwired
Then sleep!


Snoring!

My sun!
Hey the sun is out today!
I didn’t even have to pray!

It lifts me up,
It makes me feel good
Charges my batteries,
Makes me feel alive!

If the sun shone everyday
I’d be in heaven may I say!

It lifts me up,
It makes me feel good
Charges my batteries,
Makes me feel alive!

The sun is so great
I bathe in it, my fate!

It lifts me up
It makes me feel good
Charges my batteries
Makes me feel alive!

The sun lifts me up,
It makes me feel good in every single way!

It lifts me up
It makes me feel good
Charges my batteries
Makes me feel good!

It’s makes me feel
Better than I’ve ever been
Better than any other day!
It lifts me up,
Makes me feel good!
Could be a song?
47 · Oct 2020
Why?
Why
Why do I feel
Like times passing me by?
Why do I feel
Like I could just cry
Why do I feel
You might leave me and die
Why do I feel
Low and not high
Why do I feel
I’m living a lie
Why do I feel
Time is getting nigh
Why do I feel
I have to sigh
Why do I feel?

Early Rise
Early rise
On a dark dark day
Stars in the skies
But a sky so black and grey

A freezing morn
As breaks the dawn
As a new day is born
Ice on the lawn

Snow on its way
So they say
Tomorrow and today
And there it will lay

It’s so cold out there
Good to stay inside
You can smell the air
So go snug up and hide

Life’s not easy
Life’s not easy
Or Bright and breezy
Cuddly and squeezey
Life’s more sneezy
Hard to pleasey
Often teazey
Constantly wheezey

Life’s quite hard
Often barred
Shown the red card
On your guard
Easily jarred
Some are tarred
Or up the yard!
47 · Feb 12
Get there
I whittle
I whine
I’m stressed
It’s the sign

I need
To get control
This stress of mine
Let it roll

What will be
Will be
Need to sort it out
You see

Need to be strong
I’m not wrong
I’ll get there
To be fair!

Sunday morning
It was a Sunday morning
When the day was just dawning

The air was so cold and felt like a shroud of ice
But the sky was bright and that was nice
There was no one around
Not even a sound
No birds to be seen
All asleep in the evergreen
keeping Warm
in their dorm

It was a Sunday Morning
When the day was just dawning
47 · Jun 2020
Summertime
Summertime

It’s coming summer and hot today now its June
By the way!
I sit I relax
People are mowing their lawn
I sneeze
The sun is shining
It’s nice and hot
I soak up the sun
a sheer delight
I tan
of that I’m a fan
I chill
That I can fore-fill
I sleep
For a little-while
I smile
It’s summertime!

Self Assembly
When you’re working up to the ultimate moment
And you’re coming to the ******
And then it happens
the earth moves
Shaking
Waking up the dead
Seeing colours in your head
The ultimate excitement
Fireworks in your brain
You’ve done it
You’ve made it
Self assembly is done!

It’s Valentines Day
Today is the day
It’s Valentine’s Day
The love that we feel
Is certainly real
As we give our love to each other
Husband wife friend and lover

Today is the day
It’s Valentine’s Day
To say to each other
I love you
I always think of you
Especially today

It’s Valentine’s Day !

Field of Pheasants
The field is full of pheasants
All running around
There’s the runners and
The males and females
Abound in the long dry grass

I try to take a picture
But no, alas, they have class,
They’re hiding in the long dry grass
No pictures to be had
somehow it made me sad

It was a rare old sight
End of the day
Coming night
No gun just a camera
They probably thought I’d shoot

It really was a hoot!
47 · Jan 23
Vermin
The vermin
Come out at night
Destroying everything in sight
They don’t care
They know they won’t get caught
No matter how much we have fought
There’s no respect
Nothing will protect
Us
against the vermin!

Cello music
Deep and creamy
Firm and dreamy
music for the soul and heart

warm and deep
sending you to a gentle sleep
dreaming of black velvet

a swan on a lake
Like a rich chocolate cake
relaxing bound and resting soundly.
Music is the food of life!
47 · Sep 2020
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!
47 · Oct 2024
Love you
When I’m dead and gone
“I want to come back as a dog in your house”
Is what my man would say
Comfortable warm and cosy
Walked, fed and loved every single day
Cuddles, kisses and lots of games to play!

Desire
Burning desire
In your heart there’s a fire
Hot just for what
Something or not
An ultimate wish
A want
A need
A desire!

Untitled
It’s hard
When we’re apart
Our souls are as one
youre always in my heart
You keep me going
When life is slowing
But when you’re no there
I worry because I care
Leaving you alone
Only talking on the phone
One day I’ll retire
And we can be together
