I haven’t blogged for over a day Oh Lord! Will my supporters forget me? Will my numbers collapse? How could I possibly have allowed myself to become busy? What on earth will I do when I go on holiday? I’ll have to take my tablet with me. I can’t afford to be forgotten. Then there’sContinueContinue reading “Panic”

The House
Photo by Jessica Lewis on Pexels.com I’m one of those people who can tell you from the bottom of a drive whether we’re going to buy a house. Hubby always says to me “will the fridge freezer fit in the kitchen or is our bed too big?” Just to have a polite way to sayContinueContinue reading “The House”
Wings
Photo by Rakicevic Nenad on Pexels.com I’m trying my wings Soaring over the seas of possibility Away from what used to be I’m resting occasionally On the oil rigs of chance Waiting to see which way the wind will blow I’m deserting In a moribund lake All those who will not fly I feel -ContinueContinue reading “Wings”
When Laughter Dies
Photo by J carter on Pexels.com We once shared a sense of humour You made me laugh until I cried We had such fun together I felt warm and safe inside But as you got to know me To understand me inside out You moved from sweet exploring To focus on my doubt I’d feltContinueContinue reading “When Laughter Dies”

A Mother’s War
Photo by Veronika Valdova on Pexels.com This poem is close to my heart, it reflects on why world peace is something I won’t give up on, the idea that humanity can be sensible and respect each other, and stop being scared. I can only give one small voice to this battle, which is the realContinueContinue reading “A Mother’s War”
Hope or Hopeless?
Photo by Pixabay on Pexels.com I put up two contradictory poems on love today, Not Lost Anymore, and Maelstrom. They’re both true. I’ve always wanted to write a book about the misconceptions we have about life when we’re younger, to give young people a heads up about the fairy-tales they will hear, and the voicesContinueContinue reading “Hope or Hopeless?”
Maelstrom
Photo by Johannes Plenio on Pexels.com Servants of the past illustrated our dreams Where stormy skies are bedecked with hope One time One heart One chosen way That was the only way To travel through life’s softly scented roses Their thorns disguised by long-lived time And false promises The hour will come The change WhenContinueContinue reading “Maelstrom”
Not Lost Anymore
Photo by Keenan Constance on Pexels.com I thought to walk alone through life A victim of these modern days Where love leads straight to grief and strife And very few can find always Instead I found my Mr Right To walk with me where angels tread And I no longer fear the night Or spendContinueContinue reading “Not Lost Anymore”
Tears
Photo by Mateus Souza on Pexels.com I cry for everything you were Everything you will not see Everything you could have been Things you never had a chance to be I love the life I have With the folks surrounding me But sunny days and silly moments Don’t fill the gap where you should beContinueContinue reading “Tears”
