winter magic



Winter magic


Falling softly, snow upon the ground
Lying gently makes no sound.
Purest white, against the darkest night
A picture postcard, such a beautiful sight

Footprints left leave a trail.
Faces numb cold and pale
Building snowmen and having fun.
A time of great excitement for all
Throwing snowballs then running away.
Friends and family happily play.

Snowboards, sledges whatever you can find.
Going at speed and crashing on your behind.
Excitement and thrill adrenalin ride.
Butterflies, beaming smiles happy inside
Back and forth again and again
Are we just mad or merely insane?

Time to go, back home we trudge.
Who was the best not easy to judge.
Clothes wet/dirty into machine.
Off for a shower/bath, scrub ourselves clean.
A wonderful day almost at the end
But did it go the way some might intend.

Ready for bed, time to sleep, looking ahead.
Warm and cosy wrapped up in bed.
Dreaming of the events of the day
Reliving each moment in our own special way
What tomorrow will bring who can say?
Hoping for another fun filled day.

puzzletive

PUZZLETIVE

Standing confused, dazed totally bemused

I think I’ve gone mad. May I please be excused?

Left perplexed, dumbfounded unable to speak

If nothing else, that is something quite unique

When logic takes an extended absence of leave

We are left faced with things that are hard to believe

Normal understanding and rules do-not apply

Do you try to understand or give up & wonder why

How can this be the voice inside your head cries?

However, when faced with the situation we can only surmise

Like an illusion things are not always, as they would appear to be

Even with our eyes open, it is not always clear to see

The situation presents and puts on a show, did that just happen?

I think I saw what I thought I saw but I’m damned if I know

Feeling embarrassed we pretend that we understand

Unwilling to admit we were fooled by tricks or sleight of hand

Overawed by the spectacular blinded by the glamour and glitz

More easily understood when broken down into bits

Looking outside of the box rather than believing what we see

Is the only way to set yourself puzzletively free?

Sometimes so confused my mind feels like a perpetual blender

Many things swirling around, I wish I could just return them to sender

To make sense of the things we experience and the things that we see

Is not always as easy as it would appear to be

Life is challenging in so many ways leaving you sometimes lost in a haze

Giving you nightmares and endless headaches that last for day’s

The answer is not always as at first we perceive, approach with doubt and caution

The answers are out there but we must always keep things in proportion

true loves spell

True love’s spell

Inner thought’s we cannot conceal

Emotions help to show how you feel

When something happens that you cannot explain

Your thoughts are I’m crazy!!! I must be insane

Did I imagine how can, I be sure.

Do I say nothing and regret forever more

Do I approach with a big size 10?

And leave with foot firmly in mouth again

Should I be brave the chivalrous knight

Standing before you, amour shining bright

Helping to banish your worry and stress

Plucking up the courage to then confess

You make me smile and lift my mood

The emotions I feel lead me to conclude

I am either in love or completely off the rails

Pleading “Insanity” is good if all else fails

Enchanting with elegance and style

Stunning eyes and mesmeric smile

Lost in my thoughts I drift away

Never in my dreams could I imagine feeling this way

When you speak your voice is all I hear

When you’re close I lose all fear

Nothing else matters completely free

Lifted up with the stars, but do they shine for me

you are simply unique and I am left in awe

You fill my heart and soul with amore

An angel from heaven no other way to compare

When I think about you I walk on air

Now that I’m done and my words are said

A flood of emotions run through my head

If I succeed or if I fail only time will tell

My true love I am forever lost in your spell

true love 2

True love

Guide with sight lead with hand

Decision make, take command

Never falter or by the way side fall

Message received answer the call

Rocky path with debris strewn

Hear the piper follow the tune

Hypnotized by the mistress of love

Higher power guided from above

Brought together by the hand of fate

The path of true love is never straight

Head above water, riding the wave

Remaining strong determined, and brave

When it comes, how it feels, what we do

Isn’t scripted it individual to me and you

True love can never be taken light

Beware the backlash, fearsome bite

Chance for happiness, future bright

Magical fireworks light the dark of night

Sudden Crescendo of noise, angels sing

Exquisite sensations that only true love can bring

Fairytale wish a perfect dream come true

Completely in awe of the wonder that’s you

Some forget, others never truly believe

Unable to step up to the mark, they flatter to deceive

My true love I love you for everything you are, and do

You make every emotion and feeling brand new

My words of love with actions I will show

To remind you for eternity how much I love you so

true love 1

True love

What is true love and is there such a thing

That special feeling that makes your heart sing

When two people connect in such a way

Together forever come what may

That once in a lifetime moment of fate

When we are able to find our perfect mate

A feeling like no other you’ll know when it hits

Pre-conceived ideas blown to bits

How this thing works does anyone know

Where do we look, where do we go

Finding that someone a love for life

Working together through the trouble and strife

Maybe a website, agency, magazine or two

Carefully searching for the right one for you

Someone you meet out in town don’t let failure get you down

The strangest things happen when you least expect

Your true love isn’t always the usual suspect

Looking too close to home, not always a good idea

The partner of your dreams doesn’t have to be near

Across the world forget the distance, time, and space

It all comes down to right time, right person, right place

How long it takes, days, weeks, months, years

The endless search can drive you to tears

Then it happens at last success, you find the one

A journey for life together has just begun

Growing stronger getting to know

The love of your life belle or beau

Learning their likes and dislikes too

Everything fresh everything new

Arranging to meet, how will it be

No pre-conceptions let’s wait and see

Moment arrives the time has come

Standing in front of your special one

Eyes, mind body, two hearts entwined in love

A perfect match, it fits like a glove

A love so special, honest and true

My true love i love you and only you, together forever until the end of time

I pray that I will be yours and you will be mine

true love

TRUE LOVE

WHAT IS TRUE LOVE, HOW CAN YOU TELL

WHAT CREATES THIS MAGICAL SPELL

WHEN TWO PEOPLE CONNECT IN SUCH A WAY

LIFETIME COMMITMENT, NEVER TO STRAY

TWO HEARTS AS ONE, BODIES ENTWINED

SO IN SYNC BODY, SOUL, AND MIND

SHARING FEELINGS, EMOTIONS DAY TO DAY

REMAINING STRONG COME WHAT MAY

FACING THE CHALLENGES LIFE HAS TO GIVE

GUIDED BY GOD IN THE LIFE WE LIVE

MAKING PLANS TO THE FUTURE WE COMMIT

CUPIDS ARROW DIRECT HIT

ENGAGEMENT, MARRIAGE, A PLACE TO CALL HOME

SETTLED ROOTS THAT NO MORE WILL ROAM

YOUR ONE TRUE LOVE BY YOUR SIDE

FILLED WITH EMOTION, LOVE, AND PRIDE

HONOURING OUR LOVE, TOTAL RESPECT

HOW TO DESCRIBE THIS AMAZING EFFECT

LIKE ROCKET INSIDE, EXPLODING YOU INTO SPACE

A FEELING THAT NO OTHER COULD EVER REPLACE

WEAK AT THE KNEES, HEAD IN A SPIN

AND THIS IS JUST WHERE WE BEGIN

COMMUNICATION THE WAY TO GO

IF YOU NEVER TALK HOW WILL THEY KNOW

EVERYDAY LETTING THEM KNOW HOW SPECIAL THEY ARE

NO MATTER THE DISTANCE NEAR OR FAR

LOVE AND AFFECTION THEY ARE A MUST

COMBINED WITH TRUTH, HONESTY, AND TRUST

SHARING THE FUN TIMES HAPPY, AND THE SAD

BEING THERE THROUGH THE GOOD AND BAD

A FAMILY UNIT NO-ONE CAN EVER BREAK

A FIRM COMMITMENT TOGETHER WE MAKE

AS SURE AS EVER, THE JOURNEY WE START

SAILING ON THE OCEAN OF OUR COMBINED HEART

FORSAKING ALL OTHERS, NEVER TO STRAY

MY TRUE LOVE I LOVE YOU AND ALWAYS WILL

ALWAYS TOGETHER FOREVER WE WILL BE

A TRUE LOVE TO LAST FOR ETERNITY

thoughts 1

Thoughts 1

Morning dew upon the ground

Birds in song the sweetest sound

Walking slowly past rivers and streams

Away with my thoughts lost in my dreams

A vision of beauty, unseen before

Leaving me breathless wanting more

The embodiment of beauty, style and grace

The essence of nature, time and space

A woman personified in all her glory

A chapter told in loves magical story

A gift from heaven, the angel you are

Our love will grow stronger no matter how far

So close yet far away, like the sun that lights the day

Ultimate happiness you bring my way

Filling my life with warmth and joy

A feeling so strong nothing can destroy

Completely at one, you and me

I could love no other the way I love thee

By my side to journeys end

My partner for life, my wife and friend

As a family, strong come what may

All of us united longing for that day

Together at last the way it should be

With children together, you and me

My destiny starts and ends with you

Always with me whatever I do

Forever together, till death us do part

All that I am, with all of my heart

I love you my true love this you will always know

My complete love for you always on show

If life is a book we are but page one

Our story together has just begun

New chapters are there to be written

Completely in love totally smitten

Remember our journey will be eventful and long

And that life is not a dash but more of a marathon

the wonder that's you

The wonder that is you

How to explain the wonder that is you

To put into words my feelings so true

The person you are the woman inside

Always I long to be by your side

So loving and giving unselfish and kind

From morning until night you are on my mind

When apart no matter how long

What keeps me going, my love so strong?

To hear your voice and feel you near

Suddenly everything seems so clear

You are simply amazing in every way

My love grows stronger day by day

The moments we share are precious to me

Through the darkness, they help me to see

What ever happens what may come?

Our hearts entwined together as one

Laying beside you holding you tight

Never before has it felt so right

Making love, our bodies explore

Leaving me breathless wanting more

Taking each day slow and steady

By your side willing and ready

To face the challenges that comes our way

To stand and be counted and able to say

I love you my true love and all that you do

I am simply in awe of the wonder that is you

lovers

The lovers

IN A WORLD OFTEN COLD WHERE LOVE, AND LIVES CAN BE BOUGHT AND SOLD

EMOTIONS AND FEELINGS CAST ASIDE, NOT THERE FOR THE JOURNEY JUST THE RIDE

OUR DREAMS LIKE CONFETTI BLOWING IN THE WIND, UPON WHICH OUR HOPES ARE PINNED

MANY HIDE THEIR TRUE DESIRES FOR FEAR THEY WILL BE ACCUSED OF HAVING SINNED

UNDER THE EYE OF SCRUTINY, WITH NOWHERE TO HIDE, WATCHED FOR EVERY STEP

CLOSELY GUARDED UNDER WRAPS, EMOTIONS AND FEELINGS ARE CAREFULLY KEPT

WHY THE FOCUS? WHY THE ATTENTION? WHY IS IT SOMETHING WE SHOULDNT MENTION

OUR GREATEST WISH TO FIND TRUE LOVE, AND BE LIFTED TO A HIGHER DIMENSION

DRAWN TOGETHER BY THE HAND OF FATE, UPON THE PATH OF DESTINY THEY VENTURE

TWO HEARTS ENTWINED, TWO SOULS COMBINED, SO BEGINNING A MAGICAL ADVENTURE

EXPLORING THEMSELVES, DELVING DEEP, REAVEALING THE SECRETS, INSIDE THEY HIDE

MAKING LOVE MOVING AS ONE, PASSIONS FIRE BURNING STRONG, SIDE BY SIDE

BENEATH THE SILKEN SHEETS, ORCHESTRAL CRESCHENDO TWO HEARTS BEATING AS ONE

A NIGHT FILLED WITH DREAMS, PRAYERS TO BE ANSWERED OBSTACLES OVERCOME

A PRECIOUS MOMENT WITHOUT COMPARE, THE LOVERS CONTENT, SLEEPING TOGETHER

A LOVE FORGED BY HONESTY, NURTURED, BY PASSION BUT ULTIMATELY BY FRIENDSHIP FOREVER

TWO KINDERED SPIRITS JOINED FOR LIFE, TOGETHER IN PARTNERSHIP HUSBAND AND WIFE

SUPPORTIVE OR SCORNFUL, THE COMMENTS OF THOSE CLOSEST WILL CUT LIKE A KNIFE

LIVING TOGETHER, SHARING THE JOYS OF LIFE, A WORLD OF OPPORTUNITY AWAITS THEM

WHAT GOD HAS JOINED TOGETHER LET NO MAN COME BETWEEN THEM FOREVER AMEN

WHAT EVER LIFE THROWS THIER WAY, SAFE IN THE KNOWLEDGE THEY HAVE THE FIGHT

THE STRENGTH AND INNER BELIEF TO GET EACHOTHER THROUGH THE DARKEST NIGHT

NEVER HAVING TO QUESTION OR DOUBT WHATEVER THE PROBLEM THE TRUTH WILL OUT

THIER HONESTY AND COMMITMENT WILL NEVER WAIVER, OR TURN ABOUT

A LOVE LIKE THIS IS RARE, YOU COULD SAY UNIQUE BUT ULTIMATELY MEANT TO BE

JUST HOW MUCH THEY CARE FOR EACH OTHER, TO EVERYONE IS PLAIN TO SEE

ALWAYS TRUE TO THIER HEARTS AND MINDS, LOVERS FOR LIFE, PARTNERS FOREVER

TWO LOVERS SAFE IN THE KNOWLEDGE THAT THEY WILL ALWAYS BE TOGETHER

princess

Princess

In a kingdom far away

Within a tower a princess lay

Against her will trapped inside

Upon a bed bound and tied

Taken from her home by an evil king

His plan to have her wear his ring

Whatever the cost to make her his queen

The cruellest of men, nasty and mean

For days, nights, weeks, years

Keeping her trapped despite the tears

Breaking her will slowly each day

All she could do was hope and pray

Wishing that someone would hear her plea

And come to her rescue and set her free

Time passed slowly, she feared the worst

Perhaps the king was right, she had been cursed

As time passed, the tower became overgrown

Covered in ivy, a desolate place to be alone

The king had grown weary but would not yield

Too late, to mend the scars unhealed

Resigning herself forever to this fate

Realising as time passed by, it would soon be too late

Darkness fell on another day

Cold and hungry once again she tried to pray

Suddenly she heard a sound

The patter of hooves upon the ground

A passing knight had stopped to rest

Unaware in the tower a princess lay distressed

Mustering strength from deep within

She tried to warn of the predicament she was in

Would he hear, would her cry be in vain

Would her torment continue suffering in pain?

Silence then a deafening sound of swords entwined

What to think, slowly going out of her mind

What was happening how would it be?

Hoping and praying she soon would be free

Within a moment her knight appeared

With trusty sword, the ivy now cleared

Into the tower a prisoner no more

Exhausted and weak she fell to the floor

When she woke, she was far away

Free at last to live another day

By her side her knight in shining armour

Now not afraid resting much calmer

The knight revealed his identity

A prince in waiting, a king to be

He knew his father was wicked and cruel

And realised he could no longer let him rule

When he realised the king’s evil plan

He challenged his father, and became a man

Defending the honour of the princess that day

A duel to the end come what may

Being victorious righting the wrong

Freeing the princess, trapped for so long

Love at first sight they instantly new

She would become queen, with a king whose heart was true

moonlit walk

MOONLIT WALK

HIDE AND SEEK BEHIND THE CLOUD

THE SHINING MOON STANDING PROUD

IN AND OUT FROM ONE TO ANOTHER

MOVING ALONG LOOKING FOR COVER

THE SEA SPARKLES AS THE LIGHT CUTS THROUGH

CREATING A WONDERFUL, SPECTACULAR VIEW

SAND SOFT CARESSING THE SKIN

SLOWLY BUT SURELY PULLING ME IN

THE AIR IS STILL, SEA IS CALM

IMAGINING YOU WITH ME HOLDING MY ARM

WALKING TOGETHER HAPPY AND FREE

OUR SHADOWS TWISTING AND TURNING

UNABLE TO HIDE OR CONTAIN OUR YEARNING

PASSION BREAKS WE LOSE CONTROL

COMPLETE AS ONE, MIND, BODY, AND SOUL

EXPLORING OUR DEEPEST AND INNER DESIRE

THE WARMTH OF LOVES PASSIONATE FIRE

A PERFECT MOMENT I PRAY WILL LAST

BUT DAY IS HERE AND NIGHT HAS PAST

AWAKENED BY THE SUN AS IT SLOWLY RISES

DAY HAS BEGUN ONE OF MANY DISGUISES

TIME TO LEAVE, REACHING FOR YOUR HAND

BUT I AM ALONE JUST ME IN THE SAND

CLIMB TO MY FEET WALKING AWAY

WAS IT A DREAM, DID IT HAPPEN THAT WAY

ARRIVING HOME, TAKING A SHOWER

TIMES GOES QUICKLY IT’S ALMOST AN HOUR

TIME TO GET DRY PUT ON SOME ATIRE

THEN ADD A COUPLE OF LOGS TO THE FIRE

RELAXING THAT NIGHT THOUGHTS IN MY HEAD

LONGING TO LAY BESIDE YOU IN BED

TO FEEL YOU NEAR AND HOLD YOU TIGHT

REMEMBERING HOW IT FELT SO RIGHT

LOOKING FORWARD TO ANOTHER MAGICAL NIGHT

poetry a feeling like no other

A feeling like no-other

A feeling like no-other special, unique

Breathtaking, lost for words unable to speak

Butterflies daily, heart skips a beat

The most perfect lady you could ever wish to meet

Happiness pouring through every smile

Captivated by your beauty grace and style

Consumed by passion holding you tight

Keeping you safe and warm at night

Walking on air, on cloud number nine

Magical moment when two hearts combine

Tender kisses, exploring each other

On a journey, so much still to discover

Blank canvas with a picture to tell

Overwhelmed by loves magical spell

Head over heels completely in love

You are simply an angel sent from above

Moments apart are hard to bear

My life, with you I long to share

Sometimes apart but not for much longer

Building a bond that will only get stronger

Through daily toil and mutual respect

My actions and deeds will without doubt reflect

Honored and proud to be by your side

Nothing can compare with this feeling inside

Everything I could want and wish for is in you

No words or accolades will ever do

How can you ever define the love we share!

Until the end of time I will always be with you.

poetry when words fail

WHEN WORDS FAIL

WRITING THE WORDS, YOU SEARCH TO FIND

A SCRAMBLED MESS INSIDE YOUR MIND

WANTING TO SHOUT, SCREAM AND CRY

WRITERS BLOCK HOWEVER HARD YOU TRY

WITH SO MANY IDEAS BOUNCING AROUND

IT’S ALL YOU CAN DO TO STAY ON THE GROUND

WHERE DO YOU START, OR EVEN BEGIN

WHEN NOTHING WILL FLOW FROM WITHIN

IMAGINATION OVERLOAD, UNABLE TO THINK

NO RYHME OR REASON THOUGHTS OUT OF SYNC

LIKE PIECES IN A PUZZLE IF YOU TAKE YOU’RE TIME

THE WORDS WILL FLOW LINE AFTER LINE

FROM OUT OF THE CHAOS SENSE CAN BE FOUND

NO LONGER THE HEADLESS CHICKEN RUNNING AROUND

ONE BY ONE THE POEMS FLOW, INNER THOUGHTS, FEELINGS SHOW

LIKE THE LONGEST WAIT AT TRAFFIC LIGHTS, BUT NOW YOUR ON GO

IF ONLY IT WAS THAT EASY, BELIEVE ME IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN

AND ONCE AGAIN YOUR MENTAL BLOCK WILL DRIVE YOU INSANE

BUT WRITE DOWN EVERY SINGLE LINE, VERSE, AND RHYME

AND IT WILL ALL, LIKE MOST THINGS COME TOGETHER IN TIME

WE ALL HAVE FEELINGS AND THINGS WE WANT TO SAY

AND EACH OF US IS CAPABLE OF POETRY IN SOME WAY

FROM THE GREATEST TO THE LESSER KNOWN

KEATS, YATES, TO NAME BUT TWO AND EVEN MY OWN

I DONT THINK IM GREAT BUT IT COMES FROM THE HEART

FROM THE VERY BEGINNING TO THE END, EVERY PART

MY WAY OF RELEASE FROM MY WORLD OF TORMENT

TRYING TO FIND WHERE MY LIFE AND HAPPINESS WENT

poetry what ever you want

WHATEVER YOU WANT

IMAGINE HAVING WHATEVER YOU WANT THERE FOR THE TAKING

AND EVERYTHING DECIDED BY CHOICES OF YOUR OWN MAKING

NOTHING TOO MUCH TROUBLE SATISFACTION GUARANTEED

WHATEVER YOU FANCY, HELP YOURSELF TAKE WHAT YOU NEED

LORD OF THE MANOR, COUNTRY ESTATE A PERFECT LIFE

CHILDREN, PETS, OH!!! AND NOT FORGETTING THE WIFE

FINEST FURNISHINGS THAT MONEY COULD EVER BUY

A BEST OF ALL A FOUR POSTER BED UPON WHICH TO LY

SO MANY ROOMS, FILLED WITH PRICELESS ANTIQUES

HAND MADE CARVINGS BY AFRICANS, AND EVEN THE GREEKS

PAINTINGS BY GOYA, VAN GOGH, PICASSO, AND MONET

AND THE JEWEL IN THE CROWN A GAMES ROOM IN WHICH TO PLAY

EXTENSIVE GARDENS FULL OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL FLOWERS

TRANQUIL HEAVEN IN WHICH YOU WOULD WALK FOR HOURS

YOUR OWN PRIVATE LAKE FILLED TO THE BRIM WITHJ FISH

SLOWLY SMOKED, WITH STEAMED VEGETABLES A PERFECT DISH

HOLIDAYS HOME AND, ABROAD ALWAYS BUSY NEVER BORED

PRIVATE MARINA IN MONACO WHERE YOU’RE YACHT CAN BE MOORED

“A” LIST GUESTS FLOCK TO BE BY YOUR SIDE, NEVER ALONE

WHATEVER YOU NEED WHENEVER YOU WANT AT THE END OF A PHONE

BROWSING IN SHOPS FILLED WITH ONLY THE VERY BEST

YOUR WILL POWER PUT FIRMLY AND DIRECTLY TO THE TEST

BUT WITH ENDLESS SPENDING POWER WHEN WOULD YOU DROP

WOULD YOU EVEN CONSIDER AT WHAT POINT YOU SHOULD STOP

LAVISH RESTAURANTS SERVING THE MOST EXQUISITE OF FOOD

THROUGHOUT THE EVENING CLASSICAL MUSIC TO SET THE MOOD

A FOUR COURSE MEAL SO DEVINE FINISHED OF WITH THE FINEST WINE

AN OPPULENT LIFESTYLE FIT FOR A KING OR QUEEN SIMPLY SUBLIME

GREAT THOUGH IT SOUNDS IF I AM BEING COMPLETELY STRAIGHT

IT WOULDN’T MAKE ME HAPPY ALTHOUGH SOMETHINGS WOULD BE GREAT

ALWAYS HAVING THE ABILITY TO DO AND BUY WHAT YOU NEED

BUT IN THE END YOU HAVE TO CONCEDE IT WILL ONLY PROMOTE GREED

BORN WITH A SILVER SPOON OR NOT, THE CHOICES WE MAKE DECIDE OUR LOT

FOR EVEN THE RICH FALL FROM GRACE, NOT ONLY THE FOOLISH, LY IN DISGRACE

IT’S NOT HOW YOU START BUT AT THE FINISH IT’S HOW YOU END

AND TO OUR CHILDREN AND OUR PEERS WHAT MESSAGE WE SEND

THROUGH HARD WORK, KINDNESS AND GOODWILL WE CAN SUCCEED

MAKING SURE IT’S A LIFE OF HONESTY AND TRUE FAITH WE LEAD

HAPPINESS COMES NOT AT A PRICE, BUT SIMPLY BY BEING NICE

THE FRIUTS OF YOUR LABOUR YOU SOON WILL REAP, WITH ADDED SPICE

poetry walking in shadows

WALKING IN SHADOWS

WALKING IN SHADOWS NONE MY OWN

DESOLATE PLACE COMPLETELY ALONE

TURNING CORNERS IN CIRCLES I GO

WHERE I WILL END UP, I DO NOT KNOW

CHANGES ALL AROUND BUT ONLY FOR THE WORSE

PROGRESS ISNT ALWAYS A BLESSING, IT CAN BE A CURSE

FAMILIAR PLACES BUT NOW THE MEMORIES FADE

WITH THIER FANCY IDEAS THEY TRY TO PERSUADE

MODERNISATION TO THE FUTURE LOOKING AHEAD

THE METAPHORICAL OSTRICH THAT BERIES HIS HEAD

COSTLY CONSTRUCTION, MONSTROCITIES RISE

CARBUNKALS OF DISTRUCTION APPEAR BEFORE OUR EYES

THOSE WITH MONEY HAVE BOTH THE VOICE AND CHOICE

FORGET THE FIESTA YOU NEED THE ROLLS ROYCE

IT’S NOT WHAT YOU KNOW, BUT WHO YOU KNOW

THE SHAKERS AND THE MAKERS THAT RUN THE SHOW

FOR YOU AND I MERE MORTALS FROM PLANET EARTH

A MATTER OF GREAT IMPORTANCE AND MUCH WORTH

OUR EYES ARE OPEN BUT WE DONT ALWAYS SEE

BUT WE CANNOT IGNORE OR SIMPLY JUST AGREE

FROM A PLACE I ONCE KNEW I RECOGNISE NO MORE

I DONT KNOW MUCH BUT ONE THINGS FOR SURE

WITH RECKLESS ABANDONMENT WE HEAD FOR A FALL

AFFECTING NOT JUST ONE, BUT EVERY PERSON ONE AND ALL

THIS OUR WORLD UNLESS WE WAKE TO SEE

WILL SOON BE DESTROYED, RESIGNED TO HISTORY

WE MUST NOT FORGET OUR HERITAGE AND PAST

OR FOREVER LIVE OUR LIVES WITH OUR HEADS IN THE GALLOWS

AND ETERNALLY RESIGN OURSELVES TO WALKING IN SHADOWS

poetry untitled

UNTITLED

Close the window that’s never open

Shut the door unhinged and broken

Walk in rooms derelict and neglected

Discover something you never expected

Through the shell that once was home

A scene now reminiscent of a warzone

Debris strewn across the floor

What once was vibrant now no-more

Broken pictures, shattered dreams

Fallen ceilings and twisted beams

Dust so thick it looks just like snow

Blocked fireplace that once was aglow

Every room with a story to tell

Good, bad, happiness, hell

Memories rebuild and create a scene

A vision of happiness and daily routine

Winding stairs creaking as you go

Considered steps steady and slow

Taking the time to take it all in

Finding your feet before you begin

Like a child, somewhere you shouldn’t be

But curiosity takes over and you have to see

Individual pieces, a reminder of the past

In the blink of an eye gone too fast

Time goes slow but soon you must leave

Time to reflect time to grieve

Walking away down the stairs and out of the door

Down the path turning to glance once more

Left behind a broken house garden overgrown

Years of worry and stress, future unknown

An emotional journey reliving the past

Distant memories are all that last

Upon the carriage no longer in charge of the reins

Thoughts and prayers are all that remains

Leaving the past to lie starting a chapter new

Mustering what courage you can find to see you through

poetry trust

TRUST IN US

TRUST IS SOMETHING SPECIAL AND SO UNIQUE

IN THOSE WE CONFIDE WE TRUST NOT TO SPEAK

TRUST IS BUILT OVER TIME, OF GETTING TO KNOW

WHETHER GENUINE OR NOT ONLY TIME WILL SHOW

FRIENDS ARE THERE OR SO YOU WOULD THINK

READY TO FOLLOW YOU RIGHT TO THE BRINK

IS THAT THE CASE, WELL HANDLE WITH CARE

FOR IF THE PRICE IS RIGHT MANY WILL SHARE

VULNERABILITIES WE CANNOT DISGUISE

NEVER BE FOOLISH ALWAYS BE WISE

ACT WITH CAUTION BEFORE OPENING WIDE

REVEALING THE DOOR BEHIND WHICH YOU’RE SECRETS HIDE

ARE WE SO DIFFERENT OR JUST THE SAME

ARE WE THE PLAYERS OR MERELY THE GAME

ARE WE THE BEGINNING OR JUST THE END

DO WE STAND ALONE OR DO WE ON OTHERS DEPEND

A BALANCING ACT JUDGING HOW FAR WE GO

JUST HOW MUCH DO WE WANT, OR NEED OTHERS TO KNOW

IT’S NOT A GIVEN THAT OUR LIVES ARE LAID OUT BARE

BUT AT OUR DISCRETION AS TO HOW MUCH WE SHARE

THE FACT IS PEOPLE WILL JUDGE WHATEVER WE DO

NO MATTER HOW CAREFUL, OR INTENTIONS TRUE

THE STRENGTH AND RESOLVE TO PROVE THEM WRONG

WILL SEE US THROUGH AND MAKE US STRONG

OUT OF THE DARKNESS AND INTO THE LIGHT

SETTING THE RECORD STRAIGHT MAKING THINGS RIGHT

AS AWKWARD, OR UNCOMFORTABLE AS IT MAY SEEM,

REMEMBER THIS ISNT A NIGHTMARE, BUT THE BEGINNING OF OUR DREAM

REMEMBER IN LIFE IT’S NOT HOW YOU START BUT HOW YOU FINISH

TRUE FRIENDS FAITH AND BELIEF IN US WILL NEVER DIMINISH

WE CAN’T CONTROL WHAT OTHERS SAY, THINK, OR DO

BUT BY OUR ACTIONS IN TIME THEY WILL SEE OUR LOVE IS TR

poetry true friends

Frog prince productions present

True friends

When times are hard they will be there

By your side, the burden to share

Giving support and comfort too

Whatever the problem there for you

Sometimes days, weeks will pass by

You start to doubt and wonder why

However, through it all a true friend is there

Offering support anytime, anyplace, anywhere

Through, good, bad, thick and thin

Any situation whatever trouble you are in

A friend wont judge or aspersions cast

Always by your side until the very last

Sometimes we confuse acquaintance and friend

The difference is one is there for their own end

Feeding off you for what they can get

Leaving you broken with more than regret

Blaming yourself over what you have no control

A time for reflection and searching your soul

Friendship is a quality that is rare to find

When someone is truly genuine and kind

A special bond that cannot be broken

Their word is their bond, no secrets are spoken

No tales are told, or web of lies

No skeletons in the closet, or hidden surprise

Together as one, with our friendship too

Along with those you trust, I will be there for you

To love honour cherish and obey whatever happens come what may

There by your side my heart filled with pride until my dying day

poetry transformers

TRANSFORMERS

FROM THE PLANET CYBERTRON THE TRANSFORMERS WERE DEFINITELY A LITTLE STRANGE

WITH THE ABILITY TO CONTROL THEIR BODIES, INTO MANY SHAPES THEY WERE ABLE TO CHANGE

CARS, TRUCKS, PLANES, AND EVEN HOUSEHOLD OBJECTS LIKE CASSETTES, & TAPE PLAYERS TOO,

THERE SEEMED NO END TO THE MANY WONDERFUL THINGS THAT THEY COULD CHANGE INTO

FUTURISTIC IN DESIGN, A NEW BREED WAS BORN, WITH MANY GIMMICKS, AND SURPRISES

HEADS AND WEAPONS THAT WERE TRANSFORMERS THEMSELVES, OLD TO NEW THE PHOENIX RISES

FORMING GIANTS KNOWN AS GESALTS, TEAMS OF TRANSFORMERS MERGED TOGETHER

ALSO THERE WERE FOUR CITIES, FORTRESS MAXIMUS BEING THE LARGEST TRANSFORMER EVER

NOW, CALL ME CRAZY!!!! BUT TRANSFORMERS AS THE NAME SUGGESTS, SHOULD TRANSFORM

BUT HERE’S THE TWIST, THERE WERE SOME THAT WERE DIFFERENT, A BREAK FROM THE NORM

THESE TRANSFORMERS DIDNT CHANGE, KNOWN AS THE ACTION MASTERS THEY BROKE THE MOULD

THE END OF GENERATION 1 IN THE US, LASTING FOR A WHILE IN EUROPE, NOW NO LONGER SOLD

BEINGS KNOWN AS QUINTESSIONS ON THE PLANET OF CYBERTRON STARTED THE SHOW

MAKING ROBOTS AS CONSUMER & MILITARY PRODUCTS SO BEGAN THE TRANSFORMERS WE KNOW

BUT AGAINST THEIR MASTERS THE ROBOTS REBELLED, BEFORE SPLITTING INTO TWO FACTIONS

AND SO A WAR UNLIKE ANY SEEN BEFORE, RAVAGED CYBERTRON BECAUSE OF THEIR ACTIONS

ABOUT 4,000,000 BC, AUTOBOTS LED BY OPTIMUS PRIME LEFT CYBERTRON IN SEARCH OF ENERGY

BUT WHILST IN SPACE THEY WERE ATTACKED BY THE DECEPTACONS THEIR ARCH ENEMY

WHILST BOTH GROUPS WERE ABOARD THE AUTOBOT CRAFT THE ARK, INTO A VOLCANO IT CRASHED

UPON THE PLANET EARTH THEY LAY DORMANT, WAS THIS THE END, ALL HOPE SEEMED DASHED

4 MILLION YEARS & A VOLCANIC ERUPTION LATER THE TRANSFORMERS WERE TO RISE ONCE MORE

THE TWO GROUPS BEGAN A FIGHT ON EARTH, A FIERCE BATTLE UNLIKE ANY SEEN BEFORE

WITH THE DECEPTICONS OUT TO CONQUER THE PLANET, AND DRAIN IT OF ALL IT’S ENERGIES

THE AUTOBOTS KNEW THAT UNTIL THEY WERE STOPPED, THEY COULD NOT REST AT EASE

DURING FOUR SEASONS, COMICS AND A MOVIE TOO THEIR UNIQUE RIVALRY WAS CLEAR TO SEE

WITH THE DECEPTICONS TAKING CONTROL OF CYBERTRON, THE AUTOBOTS WERE FORCED TO FLEE

STATIONED ON CYBERTRONS MOONS AND A FEW ON EARTH, THE AUTOBOTS HAD MORE TO FEAR

THE PLANET UNICRON WHICH DEVOURED OTHER WORLDS, POSED A THREAT ALL TOO CLEAR

THE TIME FOR SOME ACTION HAD COME, THE AUTOBOTS MATRIX OF LEADERSHIP WAS FORMED

AND A PLAN TO DESTROY THE PLANET OF UNICRON WAS HATCHED, A NEW ERA HAD DAWNED RETAKING CYBERTRON, AND FORCING THE DECEPTICONS TO FLEE IN DISGRACE GAINING CONTROL

TO COMPLETELY DESTROY THE QUINTESSIONS AND DECEPTICONS WAS THEIR ULTIMATE GOAL

THROUGH SEASON THREE THINGS GOT MUCH DARKER AND WITH SEASON FOUR CAME REBIRTH

A THREE PART SERIES CONSIDERED TO BE OF POOR QUALITY, THAT DIDNT MOVE THE EARTH

MARKING THE END OF GENERATION 1 THE DEMISE OF THE TRANSFORMERS HAD BEGUN

FALLING RATINGS AND A LACK OF DIRECTION, FROM THIS THERE WOULD BE NO RESSURECTION

THE END HAD BEEN WRITTEN, AND WHAT PASSED WAS A SERIES OF ONE SEASON SHOWS

SHROUDED IN MYSTERY, WOULD THEIR DESTINY EVER BE FULFILLED, SPECULATION GROWS

BUT FOR NOW WE MUST CONTENT OURSELVES AND BE RESIGNED TO THE FACTS AS THEY STAND

WHATEVER THE DESTINY FOR THE TRANSFORMERS, THE END WAS DEFINITELY NOT AS PLANNED
