To a Wonderful Grandfather
Universe Poems Apr 2023
He was a great man
His family came first,
no matter the life plan
A loving grandfather,
with old fashioned values and rules
A respected man in England
and the Cypriot Cyprus land
There all of my adult life
Our family gatherings,
you certainly knew how to cook,
on the Turkish barbecue
I learnt all of my cooking from you
I know how to definitely,
make my own barbecue
Not many women I have met,
can burn the charcoal,
but Carol knows because the grandfather,
taught her goals
Watermelons when we visited the village
I can still see you carrying them,
one in each hand with no spillage,
as we returned to the main house,
from the visit to the village
Your grandson loved your flap cap,
it made him laugh,
even though blindness is in his path
My parents, you and your wife,
loved us all without conditions in life
My father passed before you,
but you always held me in your hand too
Tanrı ruhunu korusun
Rest in peace,
my love for you will never cease

Small Thumbs
Universe Poems Oct 2021
Here they come,
all wanting some
The perils of the world,

are getting none
The size of people,
does not matter
Accomplishments,
are not based,
on stature

Nature Code
Universe Poems Jul 2023
Learn to disengage
It's a skill that takes will
You churn
You yearn
Your body sheds
The pain feels like lead
Did you feel it in your stomach?
Some will feel,
they don't know what to do
or who to talk too
Can you even talk,
when it feels like a fork
Then a break
All the pain,
you feel like you,
shovelled in vain,
becomes your rein
Eventually that pain,
takes you to a place that is tame
What is so bad,
is that pain made you so sad
It forms a storm that is warm,
then you feel dawn
Even at this point you may still care
and see the purpose,
of why the path is there,
but you have a human body,
inside where feelings reside
Our bodies feel hurt and pain,
Physiology mechanisms,
are in every living system,
and will always remain
Emotional pain is adaptive,
and the same
An automated response,
which you can never change
Suppression,
but you can't control pain,
in deep regression
It has to spill out
Once you experience it in life,
realise a tool to disengage rule
You inherently go into survival mode
The body searches for the code:

Damage
Ice
Senses
Emotions
Negative
Grace
Allow
Generate
Empty

Is emotion an automatic processing?

According to Zajonc's (1980) affective primacy hypothesis, initial responses to emotional stimuli are automatic and do not necessarily require conscious awareness.

Everybody is an individual.

Everyone copes with emotion differently.

Coping mechanisms can be different for people with disabilities and health conditions.
Learning new skills may need to be adapted.

This is why it is imperative for individuals to be supported with their holistic health and emotional regulation (EQ).

Children
Individuals
Men
Women
People with disabilities or health conditions.

Bracken and The Boar
Universe Poems Oct 2022
Bracken
Rich but still part of nature's pips
Fronds contain toxic compounds
Nature's non - chemical intervention rounds,
means digging crushing cutting out,
could be labour intensive no doubt
A traditional method used,
was part of nature's moves
Run boar on bracken,
root them up
Broadleaf habitat
Coniferous woodlands,
near farmland in fact
Large head long narrow snout,
with small ears about,
but certainly connected,
to the nature cycle,
already in clout
Who keeps it natural without frout
Bracken you know the seasons well,
you start to turn brown,
under the autumn spell

Overflow in The Croft
Universe Poems Aug 2022
A writer
People say stop writing today
Put the writing and poetry away
It can't be turned on
It can't be turned off
Natural writers can't be squeezed out,
and left to dry
A writer's cloth,
is always saturated in words,
overflowing in the croft
Part of who they are
Water exists
Intracellular
Extracellular
Water is part of the human lumen
Without this,
you would face,
a slow human slaughter
Death without water

Train Tunnel
Universe Poems Apr 2022
I saw shards of glass,
the explosion of a tunnel
The mosaic exploded,
from the middle of the arch
An old train tunnel
In the distance I could see,
as the mosaic exploded,
in front of me
I am not blown back
Just standing in silence and serene
Showing me a picture,
of events from a past scene

Embroidered Flower Press
Universe Poems Nov 2022
Spross the loss
A small piece of nature gone
A little plant or twig
You are your holistic boss,
nature is big
Regenerative restoration,
reinvigorate and more
Revivify
Open the door
Uplift let's drift

Extensors
Universe Poems Sep 2022
Puffs of poetry smoke
that evoke and don't choke
The hold of emotions,
can be strong,
or a feeling that turns,
your inside to wrong
Know this
Poetry untwists,
a spine of words
Vertebrae bones stacked
Spinal column,
it is not sombre and solemn
A disc that absorbs the pressure
The gel a cushion well
Stop the bones rubbing,
and let the words,
feel like soft feathers,
and not emotion leathers
Extensor muscle stand up
Now lift the objects and emotions
Standing straight with clear devotions,
and now regulated emotions

Poetry reader
Expression is a tool that is cool

Drama actor/actress
It's hard to say what I feel,
as feelings can be a steal

Poetry reader
Finding ways that one
can express themselves,
provides open wealth
It does not need to be
with anyone else you see
If that does not,
make you happy

Drama actor/actress
What do you mean?
If I don't talk to someone,
how can I express my feeling theme

Poetry reader
There are ways to express
Like writing painting word making,
cooking gardening,
baking too
are forms of tools,
that can aid expression,
right through

Drama actor/actress
I never thought of using art,
or cooking as an expression part
Gardening I can feel the soil,
touch plants like a sensory voil

Poetry reader
Nature and art
use expression,
that can just be
for the individual part

Keys and Locks
Universe Poems Jun 2022
Open the door
Don't presume
When you give me the key,
my locks will fit thee
Don't judge or hold a grudge
My locks don't fit every key
So you should not think,
less of me
A master key must be in place,
so i know,
duplicates don't hold the lace
