Give a reason to stay
In the process,
don't block my arteries today
the heart is free
Pumping vigorously
The reason to stay,
Is not a cure anyway

I don't fit in
Break through
The box only fits you
Cardboard soaked in water
Nature's daughter

Rouge,
cardinal,
crimson,
fire,
long spiky desire
A hot red rose,
filled with love,
as it grows

Fabricated salmon, and dill,
spiked asparagus words,
that make you ill,
prescribed an untrue,
tasting fill
Fresh salmon,
is always best,
hopefully the lies are less

Open the gate,
let them through
In the distance,
the sunset is filled
with beauty,
no blue

Autumnus
Where is the Sun,
away from the light,
of the Northern hum
Days are shorter
Here they come,
long cosy nights,
Sun retracted,
distanced, and done,
far from the
Northern Hemisphere,
Solar Sun,
cold of the Northern Pole
biting at one,
bring on cosy nights,
warm hum hum,
feel free to distance,
warm Solar Sun

As we enter the new season of autumn shedding is taking place. The trees and their leaves are falling. The temperature of the environment is changing.
You may start to spend more time inside your home etc…..

A thought, maybe a word or a sentence. Some people may want to write a paragraph or more.

Create a private poetry journal when you want to express anything into a word or words write it down. It is a personal preference and one of your expression outlets.

You could treat yourself to a special journal log book with a cover that Inspires you. Covers can also be made to suit the individual. We are now in autumn so if you visit any outdoor spaces e.g. woodland walks etc…..you could collect free nature supplies to create your cover e.g. fallen leaves, textures of bark and any greenery that has left the trees.

As often as you can once you have expressed your thoughts into the private poetry journal, go back and take another look. You will then formulate feelings of how the written journal entries have made you feel.

It could be enough that you feel, that was all that was needed. However you may want to write something else surrounding what you have last entered.

A sense of relief may be something you also feel or a better understanding of your own thoughts and feelings. Also clarification of any situation in your life will be better understood and perhaps how it is best dealt with.

             Not

Spaces in-between
intermittent courage,
that is not a dream
When most men,
think about committing suicide,
moments of courage reside
Which takes a lot more,
than the here before
