i love it when its autumn and the autumn days
when the sun is shining  through the morning haze
lighting up the colors of an autmn scene
all the autumn leaves gold and brown and green

trees are standing bare leaves scattered all around
each and every tree has no leaves to  be found
you can hear the birds singing in the dawn
with there autumn song singing in the morn

a season of the year with so much to see
mothers natures art we can view for free
a season of the year that gives your heart a glow
where theres lots of beauty every where you go

there was once a frog he built a frog hotel
at the bottom of my garden so other frogs could dwell

mama sang a song of a bluebird sky
when it was time for bed sang her lullaby
she would sing it to me till my eyes began close

all about the bluebirds in the bluebird sky
that made me fall asleep when she sang her lullaby

now im all grown up with children of my own
i sing them a bedtime song that ive always known
mamas  bluebird song of a bluebird sky
the one she wrote for me her bedtime lullaby

i was just a kid at the age of three

as the years went bye  his health it took its toll
breathing in the dust  while he was digging coal
daddy carried on till his last breath it had gone

these are things of nature way it has to be
nature has the power over time and sea
it controls the planet as it revolves away
changing time around.  and tide in every bay.

i remember walking home one night walking past the park
suddenly from nowhere a dog began bark
walked in to the park.  took a look around
then once again.  i heard the  barking sound.

walked a little further to see what i could see
there i saw a dog ******* to a tree
i untied the dog now the dog was free
gave him a cuddle took him home with me



i began to feed him each and every day
gave him a home and a place to stay
gave him lots of love lots of cuddles to
all things he needed that he never knew

i still have the dog to this very day
remember the time when he was just a stray
abandonded in a park ******* to a tree
now he his my best friend goes everwhere with me

theres  friend of mine had a dream one day
to buy lovely cottage where she would like to stay
she worked many hours till the money she could sort
when she had enough my friend the cottage bought

then she got married  her dreams were coming true
now she had a home and a husband to
then tragedy stepped in her husband passed away
to heaven in the sky where the angels stay

she loved it the garden  she would sow some flower seed
and all the different birds she just love to feed
loved to the watch there nestlings hatching in there nest
watching as they grow this she loved the best

the beauty of her garden filled her heart with pride
each and every day she would sit outside
mother natures children to keep her company
never alone no more will she ever be

i love to hear the birds as they begin to sing
weloming the morn in the early spring
mummy feeding nestlings as busy as can be
hi up in the branches of my apple tree

hedgehogs they awake from there winter sleep
when the nightime comes around the garden creep
foraging for food for a tasty treat
nice big juicy worm they just love to eat

butterflies return to fly again once more
all around the garden they will gently soar
showing of there colors giving there display
all these things we see on a spring time day

a broken heart can mend but it will take awhile
heartache it will go bring you back your smile
it will heal once more take away the pain
feelings will return let you love again

make another start with somebody new
and the love you lost will return to you  
all the hurt will go  as your heart begins to mend
you will find a true love that has a happy end

heavens way up high in the sky so blue
if and when i die i will fly to you
with my angel wings i will gently soar
united once again to share our love once more

we can carve our name on an olive tree
once again in love together you and me
and the lonely hell i face everyday
will come to an end at last go away

everyone has feelings it something we all know
we can write them down let our feelings show

make your feelings true and that they are real

write them all with honesty what you have to say
from deep inside your mind as you write away
then people they will see your feelings they are true
they can read your words from in the heart of you

a dog can be your friend with a love thats true
each and everyday will give its love to you
he will comfort you when you feel despair

an angel came to see me  while i was in my sleep
there inside my dream the angel she did creep
sat upon my bed began to stroke my hair
i felt oh so safe knowing she was there

told me of her heaven high up in the sky
when i get my wings to heaven i would fly
to a place of safety where the angels stay
high up in the sky so very far away

i wont forget the angel that i saw that night
halo round her head  wings  so big and bright
we will meet again when its time to go
meet again the angel that i all ready know

its nice to watch the children as they play away
reminds me of myself in my younger day
things i used to  when just a kid
playing with my friends different things we did

having lots of fun on roundabouts and swings
passing time away doing different things
going to the disco dance the night away
these are things we did in my younger day

now the time as flown just a memory
of the days gone by how it used to be
when i see the children as the play away
it reminds me of me in my younger day

everyone has  love a feeling we all know

something that is shared when two hearts entwine
a very special thing that makes love divine

a  very special gift sent from up above
something you can share with the one you love
growing even stronger each and everyday
there inside your heart your love will always stay

if there was only good times never ever bad
where everyone was happy never ever sad

if only this could happen how happy we could be
just a world of happiness  for every you and me

i love to watch the leaves falling to the ground
the season of the year when autumn comes around
trees that once had leaves now are standing bare
leaves have fallen down scattered every where.

there are lots of colors that make an autumn scene
vibrant as can be yellows reds and green
morning sun shines brightly with its autumn glow
a lovely time of year one that we all know

there are many things that make the world go around
all around the universe lots of things are found
lots of natures wonders every where you  go
all the special things that give the world a glow

the beauty of the moon lighting up the sky
stars like littlle diamonds floating way up high
the rolling of the tide coming home once
gently as can be rolling in to shore

lots and lots of animals roaming wild and free
mother natures children there for you to see
these are all things that make the world go round
all around the universe there wonders to be found

i like to go out walking just my dog and me
the place he loves the best  he loves it by the sea
loves to chase his  ball along the sandy shore
brings it back to me  to throw again once more

tries to chase the birds but he his to slow
birds can see him coming in the air they go
when his games are over he takes a little rest
sits down in the shade at the place he loves the best

i love to go out fishing on a sunny day
sit there on the river bank passing time away
setting up the rods waiting for a bite
hoping for a fish with an appetite

looking all around at the scenery
there in all its beauty there for me to see
there a lots of flowers growing wild and free
butterflies  and birds and the bumble bee

if i catch a fish i will take home with me
make  my favourite meal. fish and chips for tea

theres caterpillars in my garden they just love to munch
eating all my cabbage with a crunch crunch crunch
then on to the cauliflower for another chew
they are everywhere there are quite a few

when they all have finished.  on there eating spree
my veg patch it is empty nothing left for me
maybe next year  i will build a netted cage
stop the caterpillars from there munch munch stage

they will move along find somewhere else to lunch
find another place where they can munch munch munch

poets love to write passing on the day
writing from there mind what ever comes there way
choosing  all there words they would like to use
expressing there poetry with each words they choose

just like all the poets.  from many years ago
wordsworth  keats and burns others we dont know
poets they still write to this very day
composing there poetry each a different way

i love to watch the butterflies in the summer sun
flying all around having so much fun
showing of there  colors very bright and gay
like a painting on a canvas as they fly away

mother natures children showing there display
patterns on there wings that take your breath away
natures work of  art mother natures way
there for all to see  on a lovely summers day

dont you worry you Jess we are there for you
it such a shame what your going through
racism and abuse does no belong in sport
not in any game no matter what the sort

ruining careers with there selfish act
hoping there abuse will give them some impact
if it was  them what would they have to say
would they face abuse or just runaway

it not really fair it has to be this way
racism it goes on every single day
each and every sport causing misery
racism and abuse there should never be

TRIBUTE POEM for JESS CARTER
GOOD LUCK TO THE LIONESSES
THE WHOLE WORLD IS WITH YOU JESS

mama always told me when bullies are around
never walk away always stand your ground
never walk away stand a up and be strong
let them know that you  are there where you belong

when they see that  you have turned the other cheek
this will let them know you are strong not weak
they will walk away with a big red face
they have learned there lesson you put them in  there place

i sit in the garden watch the birds all feed
perched upon my feeders eating all the seed
there are many kinds with colors by the score
goldfinch and the blue ***  and a whole lot more

jumping in the bird bath having lots of fun
robin with his red breast gleaming in the sun
i sit there and watch them fill there appetite
showing of there colors vibrant and so bright

i love watch the hedgehog roaming through the night
all around my garden beneath moon so bright
foraging for food for things he likes to eat
a nice big juicy worm these are his perfect treat

they love  slugs and snails they eat beetles to
any kind of insects there are quite a few
i sit there and watch him beneath the stars so bright
foraging for food on a moonlight night

everyday we wake up we face a brand new dawn
listen to birds singing in the morn
all in harmony  singing all in tune
warms the heart in me as they begin to croon

sun is shining brightly sending down it ray
shining all around on such a lovely day
time to face the world a new day here once more
face the day outside and what it has in store

i had a funny dream of land so far away
i was there in africa where the elephants stay
they were every where  roaming wild and free
very very friendly walked right up to me

one of them came over put me on his back
took me for a ride along the forest track
such a lovely creature with elegance and grace
with there great big ears hanging from there face

i wont forget my dream where the elephants all stay
or the land i dreamed of so very far away
hope i can dream again see the elephants once more
have all the fun again just like i did before

when autumn comes around trees begin to bare
leaves begin to fall spreading every where
many different colors they begin to show
reds and browns and yellow that gives an autumn glow

lots of autum sunsets that take your breath away
  a beauty to behold on a lovely autmun day
season of the year full of natures art
that we always see whenever autumn starts

when a love goes wrong and has lost its flame
you begin to think your love was just a game
a love you thought was true was really just a mess
someone to be played in loves game of chess

you were just the pawn getting pushed along
and the game you played was one that all went wrong
now  your heart is broken in pieces on the floor
the love that you believed in has walked out the door

time will heal your heart  bring love back  to you
let you love again let you start a a new
with a love thats real that will never go away
there to last a life time for ever and a day

theres a robin my garden as tame as tame can be
when i dig my garden he comes to visit me
looking for the worms in the new dug ground
he is very clever knows new worms can be found

even tho i am there he just carries on
walking all around me fear he has none
he  just eats his worms there his favourite treat
his very favourite meal he just loves to eat

fills his appetite then flies in to the sky
i give a little wave as i say good bye
when tomorrow comes he will visit me
he knows there will be worms.  a clever chap is he

i love to watch the badger roaming through the night
roaming all around beneath the moon so bright
looking for  some food that he loves to eat
worms and mice and insects for a tasty treat

such a lovely creature  with a life so free
everytime i see them.  warms the heart in me
roaming through the fields  in the dead of night
foraging for food such a lovely sight

mother natures child with colors black and white
such a joy to see  bringing such delight
a creature of night beneath the moon above
one that we all  know one that we all love

dogs they love there owners with a love thats true
from inside there heart love is there for you
right there by your side to keep you company
best friend in the world you will ever see
