Powerful words
How powerful spoken words alone can be ?
Not to mention written words!
Given the intonation of the words that’s said!
And even How the words
Are phrased, portrayed and paraphrased!
And what their meaning is,
They can be immensely beautiful ,
But they can be very, very sad
And hurtful, even bad!

So think before you say something !
And try to say something nice
Each and every day!
To keep the woes at bay!
And make someone a happy day!!!!!

Power of positivity

The power of positive thinking is positively perfect,
When things start to succeed and everything is successful ,
When you have belief and you believe it will happen ,
And you’re sure it surely will!

Life is so precious
Life can be short
life is for living
And so we should ought
Time to build bridges
And put behind us fights we have fought
Be tolerant and patient
Remember good things were taught
Life is so special
And life is so short

Purple Flowers
On the bowers
The colour made up of red and blue
A beautiful smell and Awesome hue
A colour of passion
A kind of fashion
A purple pleasure
To admire at leisure!

Its a quiet day
in the distance not far away
I hear a dog bark
Now silence again
A delight, so quiet
A car passes by
And now its gone
Its quiet again
Peace perfect peace
time for a snooze
and let the tension
just ooze away
on a peaceful
and lovely quiet day!

Rain Again
         Rain drops falling
             Just the same
        Tapping at the window
          Tippling on the roof
       Splashing on the decking
       And here’s the real truth

                Rain
                Rain
                ­Rain
                Brain
                Drain

               ­ Rain
                Rain
                Rain
              Go away

We’ve had enough today!
               This week
               This month
               This year
               We would say!

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!

It started with an RD
Reveal device
Then it went to a P
Pacemaker
But it keeps you alive
My dear
To lose you
Is my only fear
I need you another year
More I do implore
So keep that heart beating
And stay with me for sure!

Take the ingredients of
Peace, kindness and love

Add your heart and soul

And with your help now quickly
The world could be a better
Place,
The world could be a safer base,
The world could have a happier race!
With the recipe of peace!

The pain in my neck
The fatigue
I need a break

I keep on going
Never slowing
I keep it flowing

I need to slow
But I don’t know how
I go and I go

I sweat
From all the chocolate I ate
Another symptom I bet

I can’t sleep
My cough gets me up
When I sleep deep

I want to retire and write
Even in the middle of the night
It would be a sheer delight!!!!!!

Everyday is a ‘Groundhog Day’
We get up in the morning
And go for a walk
It’s just another day

We do the household chores
Just as the day before
We sit relax and have a cuppa tea
It’s just another day

Then shopping and cooking
Magazine and book looking
Sitting and snoozing
It’s just another day!

Romance can be
For all, you and me
Watching the sunset
Walking in the rain and getting wet
Floating together on the river boat
Him giving her his coat
watching the stars at night
Walking on a beach as lovers might
Whispering sweet nothings to each other
Kisses and cuddles under a cover
Going to sleep next to your lover!

As I walk down the road,
Quickly, quickly as fast as I can,
I should have ran!
Sweat pouring down my brow,
Getting so hot right now!
Breathing faster,
This I will master,
Steps increasing,
The calories releasing,
Getting there,
Breathing out hot air,
A heart rate increase,
But arrived and all in one piece!
I'm there!!!

How very very sad!
From the news that we have had!

We’ve lost a Prince,
And Duke of Edinburgh
A good and special man,
He was loved by all
who knew him,
A wonderful wonderful character ,
And the loveliest of man!

She grew up in Poverty
She was Sad lonely brat
Told me about her childhood
But wasn’t just that

The horrific stories
She has told
Make your hair stand on end
Lo and behold

But she grew up strong
And fought the good fight
But was it still wrong
To end up a lady of the night

At least she got by
Lucky not to die
But her sad stories
They did make me cry!

White shiny teeth
Bright sparkly green eyes
Black velvet coat
Curled up claws
Pointy black ears
He has no fears

Sneaks out at night
Seeking his prey
Crosses the rooves
Both night and day
Hides around corners
Ready to pounce

His long white whiskers
Make him look a samurai
So we called him Sam
The cat on the cam!

It’s two in the morning
Early hours of the night
I sit in the garden
Experiencing the fresh morning air
Looking at the black sky
With stars twinkling up above
When I saw what was like
a star moving across the sky
Not a shooting star
No of course
The European space station
Watching down upon us!

Satiation is an eloquent sufficiency amount of food!
So satiation must be good!
It’s good to be satisfied!

I need sleep
We all need sleep
Sleep is wonderful
Dreaming is better
Look at the story
The narrative of life
We sleep and dream
Of things unseen
All mixed up
With a bit of this a bit of that and the a bit of the other
Sleep is a need
And we all need sleep!

Small mercies!
But the sun still shines,
and we still have sunrise,
better yet, we have sunset,
but its good to be alive!

Smile it makes one feel the love
Miracles are made of love
It s a special thing is love
Love is all we need
Every smile shows some love!

Chocolate I like a lot
Nuts especially mixed or hot
Popcorn with butter and salt
Chunks of cheese yes please
An olive or two will also do!

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!

The frost was glistening on the ground
this morning
like lots of little coloured stars all around
the air was very cold
it was silent, there was not a sound
Icy cold but the sun was shining
after our walk we were homeward bound
to warm and cuddle up all cosy
Back to bed with my hound!

Right for spite
Left for love
Ears burning
Who cares what they say!

Stomach churning
Belly burning
Acid reflux
Drink some milk it will help!

Head turning
With a spin
Dizziness
Rest, relax, Its all within!

Yawning
Warning
You're tired
Go to sleep!

The moon wasn’t quite complete this morning!
Six am when the day was dawning!
It was missing its bottom bit
As I looked right up at it
It wasn’t even a crescent
I don’t think it was bitten by a pheasant
A pheasant is just too pleasant
It could have been a gull
You know they’re never full
It could have been a swallow
Their little mouths are hollow
I think it was hit by a spaceship
When it’s driver was having a kip!

When someone has sorrow
And needs to just borrow
A hug from the heart
Well that’s just a start!

Give hugs And support from the heart!

Why do I get so tired?
It’s not that my brain isn’t wired !
It’s working well so I can tell!
It’s the body, it cant understand I’m not twenty one any more!
I always say at thirty you’re in your prime,
Enjoy your life and you’ll be fine!
Forty they say life begins, I remember for my sins, fast car, surfing the waves, having fun enjoying my days!
At Fifty the aches and pains set in, slowing down and enjoying a gin!
Now I’m in my sixties oh dear, my worst fear, now comes the ails and pales, aches and pains, breaks and bruises, blisters from my shoesies, stiffness and fatigue!
Looking forward to back to back cruises,
I’m not going in a care-home, oh no!
I don’t think I’ll make the eighties though!
Looking forward to retire, slowing down,
and doing just what I want to do or not do!

I heard a growl beside me
Shadows by my side I see
The dog started barking
Has something stared sparking

I felt a draft of air on my arm
I know they’ve done no harm
It felt theres something near
A ghost or ghoul I fear

I checked around
But there wasn’t any sound
Everything was quiet and calm
Whatever, it is, it’s done no harm!

Ghosts never scare me
but goosebumps I could see
There was something quite strange
Around me, or in my space or range!

Ghosts are welcome here
I do not  have a fear
We’re happy to just share
I haven't got a care!

Put on your wings
embrace all your feelings
get ready to fly
and float in the sky
like an angel above
and spread all the love!

Take my hand and
hold me
Take me for what I am and
Love me
Because all I want just now
Is You and me
stay with me now
Just For me
And I’ll stay with you!

Hold me
Love me
You and me
Just For me

Take my hand
Take me for what I am
Because all I want is you
Stay with me now
And I’ll stay with you.

Yes, yes
to success
Tried and Did it
Got there, eyes lit
Excited
delighted
Success
Yes

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!

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?

Yesterday
What a splendid day
The sun was out to play
So there I lay
In the garden as I may
Oh but did I pay
Too long, I did stay

I caught the sun
My face is red
Excuse the pun
A burning head
The deed is done
I'm off to bed!

Sunrise over the sea
Horizon between sea to sky
Let’s our spirit free
To be able to see
The sheer beauty
Of the sun, deep red and orangey
The feeling is so beautiful
Of the wonderful image
Coming from the sky
Spirits rise
Delight to the eyes
Feelings good
At sunrise !
