Sunday morn - myhaikudiary
Donna Apr 2018
I woke this morning
to a window of raindrops
falling gently down

Tis a Sunday morn
And I can hear a pigeon
coo cooing in tree

All the daisies are
wet and shivering and car
tyres are swishing

I can hear my son
opening a bag of crisp
Hey that's not breakfast!!

If it rains all day
I don't mind today because
spring is blossoming

When it rains the grass
glistens too it's quite lovely
Like night stars glowing

There's a heat wave on
it's way so the weather dudes
say , the sun will shine

Yay I get to wear
my flipflops and summer hat
Watch out for the bees :)
Happy Sunday :)

Sunset - (haiku)
Donna Jul 2017
big orange sky smiled
a happy 'how was your day'
cya tomorrow
Inspired from last night sunset :)
Donna Jan 2018
in my Lovely house
its loud and crazy mad
everyone shouts

all eight of us talk
at once , wanting to get heard
our stress levels rise

the walls begin to
shake , neighbours wear earmuffs
and turn up tv's

then all of a
sudden we are all laughing
like mad hyenas

we cuddle we kiss
then we get on with our day
with a happy heart

we are all adults
living under the same roof
but our love is real

even the moon sits on
window being nosey
what a ****** cheek!

and our big house is
shrinking , kids are growing like jolly green giants

but I love my mad
family , I sure wouldn't
want it any other way
:)
Donna Mar 2018
I've been working lots
lately to earn extra cash
For when I marry

My Dean is my life
Everday he makes me laugh
He is so funny

I insisted on
paying for my dress and my
bridemaids dresses too

I'm off on my hen
do in a few months , my Dean
paid for me to go

He has an heart of
an angel so kind and so
wonderfully lovely

I'm so excited
There be six of us going
Will be so funny

Me and my Dean have
been together for over
thirty lovely years

And because of our
awesome children our wedding
is so happening <3

Nice lovely family
and friends will be there on the
day..Tis like a dream

My daughter bought flowers
For the bridemaids there pretty
Colour of daylight

My bridemaids will be
wearing sky blue dresses so
softly gently sweet

I have butterflies
Dancing inside my belly
Happy fluttering

I'm looking so forward
To getting married to my love
I love him so much :)))))
I'm so happy and excited as I'm getting married in July to my lovely lovely dean xxxxxxx  I can't stop smiling :)

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

Donna Apr 2018
I told my Dean how
much I love to watch birds fly
so gently in sky

To my surprise he
knew names of lots of birds from
when he was a boy

So together we
now study birds and wow we
saw a cute partridge

It was in a field
A light tan colour of sweet
Pecking at the grass

Then I saw a big
peacock it's big tail half shut
Walking round corner

Dean pointed out a
mallard duck was resting in
an old fields puddle

My favourite is a
wagtail I saw two , There so
tiny and so cute

Then there's the magpies
O what elegant fine birds
they are..just like queens

And we saw a cute
robin , aww it was hiding
in a twiggy bush

Yesterday the sun
shined we went for a lovely
walk with our three dogs

Albie wore a coat
Was colour of grey sky with
fluffy cloud Pom-poms

Jessie and Harry walked
along too , Harry is quite
crazy though , barks lots

And always wants to
be the leader but our  
Jess is a diva

She's petitely cute
But her growl says it all , they
sure won't mess with her

Seagulls flying high
Crows and pigeons too , was a
nice day yesterday

We finished our day
off with a lovely dinner but
it was made of cow

So vegan is now
rising to top of mountain
But taking its time :)

I really love square
window in Chalet Tis so
small with morning light

I best get up now
Ready for a new fresh day
Filled with cartoon fun :-)
:) have a lovely day and weekend love and joy to u all ***

I've changed nothing
Donna Jan 2018
everyday I eat
breakfast lunch and dinner which
I take for granted

the amount of food
that goes to waste can feed
another family

I have my lovely
tiny home filled with love and
awesome connections

some have no homes to
live in some live on the streets
begging for money

poor countries lack lots
of nutrition  , but in my
house there's always food

as I shovel scrapes
into bin , I feel guilty
that someone's hungry

how easy it is
to take just the smallest things
for granted

yet all I can do
is write about it , yet do
nothing to help

all I have is my
pen my thoughts and my food
Yet I've changed nothing
A thought I had over xmas yet I still continue to waste food x

Donna Dec 2017
I got up early
this morning with the sunrise
Together we smiled

I caught up on some
housework and sorted out my
big iron pile

It was a mountain
of untold creased up garments
waiting to smile wide

I went outside and
it was freezing , the sky was
falling through the trees

But the trees are strong
There full of almighty love
And take no notice

Me and Dean had some
lunch and a milky coffee
To warm up our tums

Then we went food
shopping and each aisle was
packed with hungry souls

Outside again and
the sky is grey all over
Matching the pavements

I think they have a
little love going on with
matching winter coats

We turn up heater
in van to warm up our feet
and the windows cried

I saw a squirrel
Scurrying about quickly
It's tail all bushy

A magpie flys by
Then sits on a Ariel
Upon a house roof

Is it watching the
telly , maybe it's got magic
eyes and sees through things

Once indoors Dean
quickly gets ready to go
watch some boxing

Our sons also went
My daughter took a photo
A memory made

My youngest son went
to a school friends party
He looks all grown up

As for me and my
two daughters , we get to spend
time together too :)
:)

I've lost my glasses :)
Donna Jan 2018
Oh my eyes
are getting worse
this ageing thing
is such a curse
I've lost my glasses
and cannot see
all my letters
look like a b c!
My mobile light
I had to turn it down
it blinded me
and made me frown!
I'm off to find my glasses
gods knows where they are
maybe under the sofa
or somewhere very far!
If I hold my phone
a mile away from my face
I can see the letters
then they end up in the right place!
But now my arms
have got ever so long
the things we do
to sing a song :)
There turn up just don't know when :)

Donna Apr 2018
The trees blew gently
behind tercotta roofs
tickling grey sky

but the sky didn't
giggle out loud , o no no
Just the wind passing

She wondered about
the street lights , each one looked like
a lamp upon desk

where silent poets
wrote in dark rooms under a
sky of shiny stars

there pens now magpies
as there wings spread high in sky
gracing moments with

beauty unknown to
humans eye , yet in silence
glimpses flicker by

a curse or a gift
She often questions the why's
and reasons of such!!

Maybe her questions
need not be answered , maybe
letting go is best

As the night darkens
and street lights light up the streets
She begins to write

a voice in her head
tells her no more no more , yet
she never listens

She too is a poet
in a dark room under a
sky of shiny stars

But she wants to be
like her friends where a street light
is just a street light
Playing with words x
And thank you lots for reading my poetry x life's been hectic lately soz if I don't get to read many , will try to catch up when I can :) xxxxx
