Some days (haikustyle)

Some days I fly just

walk like an emu

Loving life
Donna Sep 2017
What I most love about life
is the love that I've been given
It's only as I've got older and
each season that passes
my appreciation for life
seems to flourish like
a warm sun on a hot August
day where kids play outside
and birds fly in sky
and trees stand tall like
heros displaying a glorious
picture to fester nicely
in my mind to help shoo
away a cold winter day.
Dam I love the summer
and I love my family and
no matter what life throws
my way i get a little sad
but hey , tis just a normal
reaction , life is for living
even if reading a book is
your most beautiful interest
as long as it makes you happy
then that's okay , its all bout
relaxing enjoying and loving
the best at what life can give us.
:-)

I've decided
Donna Sep 2017
I've decided
to let you go off
into your own yesterday's
to perch upon a tree branch
where the green leaves have fallen
and the moon sits silently
watching you , caring for you
guilding you without your
knowledge of knowing
that one day in the future
you will wake up
and realise there's more to life
than the end of a rolled up
drunken cigarette.
Donna Sep 2017
Stopping for short break
Resting mind and body
Pigeons sit on roof

Meadow sweetness
Donna Aug 2017
Today the sunlight
rested sweetly upon edge of clouds
making the smoky sky
glisten whitely light
Blackbirds fly together
supporting each other
whilst goats laze
comfortably below in
cheery meadow
inhaling stinky air
of sprayed fertiliser
Two roaming peacocks
alone together
may have lost there way
from a family farm
I can only imagine
as I quickly take a glance
out of car window
as to why they escaped
but peace fills my heart
as these two lovers
remain content
wandering upon gods
earthly treasures sharing
there hearts as one
just releasing what I saw today whilst driving pass meadows x

One of those days
Donna Aug 2017
Last night I had a
row with my teenage
daughter

being a mum is
wonderful but at times
can be difficult

giving out advice
when never heard can be
very frustrating

which leads to my mind
going into mega
overtime

then when the storms
calms everything seems normal
for awhile

until the next conflict
and just hoping in time
she sort herself out

but never shall I give
up on her no mater what
I'll just keep distance

lies drugs alcohol
staying out not coming home
breaks my heart

still it's a new day
today and the sun is warm
and the sky is clear

pigeons cooing
butterflies fluttering
flowers blooming

have to remain
happy when the clouds rain
tis my only way
Had ****** evening last night but that's how life is at times x
take care all be.back soon x

Pesky gnats
Donna Aug 2017
Is it me or are
gnats the most pesky insect
to invade summer!!

no matter where you
wave your arms too attack , it
comes straight back at ya

and there so brave too!
they really do give it large
Pesky little things

being a Jet Li
and Jackie Chan fan , they
made it look easy

my son said 'Mum' don't
think feeeeel , but the gnat still kept
buzzing round my head

ah well it works on
karate films I suppose , now
where's the newspaper
Gnats are so annoying we seem to have lots this summer x
