I walk down the winding stairs of marble stone
holding onto the bannister as I go down
wearing a beautiful floaty dress
and as I get to the ground
its peaceful quiet without a sound
there in front of me  is a big old wooden door
I open the door and walk in to a beautiful room
its light is dimmed with a purple hue
there is a seat of purple velvet
where I sit and rest
And as I stroke the soft smoothen velvet
it makes me feel so calm and cool
then after a while I walk across the room to the French doors
I open up the pretty doors
I walk through to a beautiful garden
with sunshine and a gentle breeze
perfect and sure to please
the flowers are all amazing
the smell is a delight
delicious wisteria
wonderful carnations
the roses are incredible
the scent is so wonderful
and there right there
amongst the beauty is my bench
I sit for a while
it makes me really smile
I rest and I chill
And relax at my own will
Its a place in my heart
Its beautiful art
and an escape  just for me
and a safe place to be!

“Deep conversation and gin in hand by candlelight ! “

You’re in my thoughts and prayers
I love you so very much my friend
We’ve known each other for many years
I know it’s near the end
I’m holding back my tears
Remembering our memories I send
Don’t hold on to the fears
And although I can not mend
I’ll be there to wipe your tears!

I feel I want to write Just now

It’s sunny now after a dull start,
Brightness fills my heart,
The sun uplifts my mood,
I’m sitting here looking at the garden,
Lush green, birds singing, it isn’t just a dream,
The forecast is thunder,
There’s thunder in my soul,
The buttercups are bright yellow,
The Christmas tree is dying,
This has left me sighing,
I need to plant it somewhere else instead,
The holly bushes have gone rife,
But that is of course no strife,
And the bamboo is quite awesome it’s spread and well fed it’s a treat to see,
We have a lot of green
In our garden in-between the
meadow type of grass,
And Within it own best class!

And in the darkness all alone, I sit outside on the garden seat looking up at the stars,
Wondering what’s out there,
We know about the milkyway and mars,
And I can name but a few twinkly stars
Pluto, Saturn, Uranus, Jupiter of course mars
There’s satellites, of that we know
And the odd aircraft  flying low
But what about the UFO
Or things out there that we will never know ?

Moose you make me smile!
What did we do within you?
A pretty little blonde with lots of style
We couldn’t do without you
Best thing we have ever done
Is getting you!
Moose we sure love you!

They say stress is under our control
But life’s ups and downs
Spin you round and round
Making you dizzy
Making it harder to play
So press the button
Tell it to stop
Sit right down
Before you drop
Think just for a minute
Of calmness and peace
Take five
Will help you survive
The stress
That makes the mess
Of your life
Stress now Be gone
Now that you’re free just carry on!

Make a spell
But only for the good
If you tell
It’ll be a dud
A wishing well
Would be very good
Drop the bay leaf in
And wish away
Light a candle every day
Get a cauldron
Pop in the rice
Drip the bay leaf oil in
Smells rather nice
make a good spell
For the best
Then you can make your one bequest!
This is just an amazing quest!

The words are a wonderful
When we positively pray
Say it Anytime
Night time or day
Say it in A poem, or  a line
We’ve just got to pray
Whatever we want or desire
You’ve just got to say
Prayers aren’t always answered
But maybe in another way
So don’t give up hope
There’s always another day!

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!

There’s no need

There’s no need for
Rioting
fighting
Killing
Maiming
Slaying
Get praying!

There’s no need for
Hurting
Bullying
Threatening
Hating
Cheating
Hey Respect your life!

There’s no need to cause
Pain
Disdain
Sorrow
Sadness
Devastation
Just Live and love!

There’s no need
To make us bleed
Do a bad deed
I just plead
Pray
Love your life
Respect all others
Respect yourself!

Peace is what we need
Peace to those who heed
Peace I only plead
Peace or we will bleed!

Money
It’s not that funny
It buys bread and honey
And when it’s sunny
It’s free
You soak it up
You see
Money though
As you probably know
Slips through our fingers
The debt still lingers!

Why do people steal?
They’re just not right!
They’re just not real!
They cause pain, how would they feel ?
When they just have to ask !

But hackers!
Computer attackers!
They’re just cruel!

Why do people ****?
Why do people fight?
Why do people commit crime?
It just is not right!

What a world we live in ?
Full of anger and sin!
Nothing is perfect!
And nor it ever will!

I only hope there’s a heaven
And hope that there’s a hell
Who knows
You can never tell!

I love you Moose
From your hair on your head
To the tip of your tail
Curled up next to me in my bed
Outside it’s blowing a gale

You stick to me like glue
I know you love me too
With the things that you do
And I love you too!

I stoke your head
And you lick my hand

You lick me
You kick me
You push me out of bed
But I know that you love me
Especially when you’re fed
You’d **** the cat
If he comes near
Jealousy is that
My only fear!
I know you love me too
That I can see
With the things that you do
Or can it just be
As you cuddle up to me
The warmth from me
And the love for you
Which says that I love you
And you love me too!

Dark clouds above my head,
I think I'll stay in bed,
I'll wait until it lifts
I'll revel in my rifts
down beneath the quilt
feeling so much guilt
why should I feel like this
someone, I need a kiss
and then those dark clouds lift
a kiss would be a gift
we all get down sometime in our lives
we're only human, men, women, children, husbands and wives
doesn't matter who we are
Depression hits us like a car!
Time to pick up the pieces now and
Get this sad, ugly thing in hand!

Life’s just a test
We don’t all get it right
But is it a quest?
And do we have to fight ?

I believe we are tested
We do our bestest
We chose our path
No don’t fight,  just compromise !

Nothing in life is black and white
Even day going to night
what lies beyond this world were in?
Are there ghosts or is it the gin?
Where do all our loved ones go?
Would we really like to know!
Are there aliens or are they akin?
and what form are they in?
Is there really a parallel universe
Lots of questions in my verse
Is there reincarnation
Returning back to our nation!
Nothing is black and white
I guess we'll never know, alright

Love is
toleration
Give and take
Patience
Share the cake
embrace
Kiss and cuddle
Sharing
Half each
caring
Look out for each other!

Christmas is a happy happy time
Time to enjoy A tipple or two
mulled wine Will do
Turkey as a tradition Or a goose or a duck
Depends on  who’ll cook
Presents by the Christmas tree
For everyone you and me
Singing Christmas songs
Sat by the fire with roasted chestnuts in tongs
Thinking of all the good things gone by!

I’m off and away
Like the wind
I feel a ray of sunshine
Fueling my plight

Flying along like a kite
The air is fresh
The mood is right
Where everything is quiet

A beautiful night
Just the owls out hunting
Nature awakes there’s
A moonlight sky

Running briskly
I fly along
In my head there’s a song
An ear worm

Moving quickly on
Now I am gone
In to the night
As I leisurely run!

The apple tree by the wall
Has worked so hard to produce some fruit
Her number of apples only small
Beautiful and rosey
One and all!

Love one another
As you’d love yourself
Love is all we need
Not a world of wealth
Love is the food of life
Love keeps us going not just yourself
But everyone let it go rife
The world should stand together
And give love to one and all
Before this world disintegrates
And off the world we’ll fall!

Trees are so beautiful
I could hug a tree
some are very old
Older than me
And some have been there many years
So if they could talk or if they could see
They'd know a lot
From history!

Pathos in January

The rain comes down!
In Pathos town,
It’s very wet,
We might just drown,

It’s cold it’s wet
But the drink is warming
There no insect
But the cats are swarming 

The floors getting wet
The towels are down
Mopping up the rain
So staying put, not going to town!

In the hedge row
Lovely juicy blackberries grow
The nettles are unforgiving
But push them aside
And find where the blackberries hide!

A nice apple and blackberry crumble
Is worth crossing a bumble bee
But go careful
Pick them careful, where he can’t see!

You are my soul mate and I’m your wife
My one and only in my life
We give and take
Through toil and ache
You make me feel so very good
But sometimes your sadness
Makes me feel real bad
I try to be patient when I can
I keep telling you you’re a good man
But with your demons haunting you
I’ve tried but there’s nothing I can do
I only wish you’d open up to me
Before I lose you, can’t you see
But I’ll never give you up you’re in my heart !
Until the time Death do us part !

why
oh why
oh why oh why
oh why oh why oh why
oh why oh why oh why oh why
oh why oh why oh why
oh why oh why
oh why

The rain has gone,
The sun is breaking through,

Its a beautiful evening,
With a bright shiny sky,

The birds are out singing,
And the flowers have bloomed,

It maybe the evening,
but out comes the beauty the sunshine will bring,

The bees are back buzzing,
Dragon flies in flight,

What a wonderful end of a day,
It should be a good night!

Hug a tree
Yes that is me
Talk to the plants
Tell them your rants
Don’t **** the ants
No don’t want them in my pants
Skinny dip, Is still quite hip
Walk in the garden naked under the light of the moon
Love to try it and quite soon!

I love
I love food!
It makes me feel so good!
I love to go for a walk and a wander!
It makes me want to ponder!
I love to write!
It helps me sleep at night!
I love you!
And all the things you do!
I love life!
And I work right through the strife!
I love my dog!
She makes me want to jog!
I love to dream when I sleep!
Especially when I’m very deep!
I love to love!
It’s very, very nice.

My husband makes fun when I say no one wins the lottery they’re all actors
And That’s what I believe
Until I see it  I just won’t believe it!

My kids say I’m a hoarder
My shoulders are broader
I’ll clear up one day

My friends say I try to help everyone and neglect myself and my health
Maybe I should listen to
Them

So I might tidy up
Have a rest
And hopefully win the lottery
But Is it all in jest ??????

This morning
The sky was beautiful and clear and blue
I could see  a croissant moon
The sun was gently shining through
The air was clear and fresh
The birds were singing in the trees
The leaves of gold and amber
Were dropping to the ground
It was peaceful and quiet
I stood there without a single sound!

She lay there
On the bed
She looked like a corpse
Battered and bruised
Yet again

He sat down beside her
And into her face
He said she was his
And this is the case

He strangled her softly
As she lay there
Unconscious
He planned to **** her
If she didn’t submit

He wasn’t going to share her
In this world or the next
But did he really care?
He’s a ****** I swear!

Life is so precious
We only have one try
At happiness and health
Before we are doomed to die
Five a day they say
Exercise and stretch up high
And do it everyday
Love each other
Any kinda way
Be kind to yourself
And think about
What’s best for your health
And To yourself be devout!

My eyes are sore
I need to sleep
And dream a dream
Oh so deep
I close my eyes
It’s so quiet
As I drift
Into slumber
And sleep!

Where in the world
Would you find a big welcome
Freedom to roam
A house or a home
Kindness and generosity
Warmth and love
Where in the world?

What a Treat
Lockdown still and with all my will I just wanna sleep! With a broken leg and ankle I can’t do much anyway so hey what’s it today! Three thirty in the afternoon and I’ve been brought a treat! Spicy *** and coke hey it’s nice and sweet! It helps the painkillers work! I know I’ve been a Burke! And even at home I still have to work. Some would say that’s good! I’d give it all up if I could! I love writing poems, it truly is such fun! Because I can’t go out for a run! Don’t think I would anyway! Im a A couch potato I would say! The most I used to do is walk the dog it’s true! No she walked me! Well I’m off to sleep again. It sure will make me heal. And stop me going insane.

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!

It’s the simple pleasures in life that keep us going, that I am knowing!
The Early morning  fresh perfume smell of flowers in the early hours,
That peaceful, calmness and quietness on a Sunday morning, when the day is dawning,
Whilst walking the dog, I’m in a fog,
Time to ponder, to think, through that black ink,
And this all makes me feel, the real deal,
It’s the beautiful things that keep us going and simple pleasures, the seeds are sowing,
The plants are growing,
Makes me appreciate my life, despite any toil despite any strife!
