Spring

Spring only arrives
when the cherry trees blossom
turning our world pink
so, bringing joy to our hearts
bright laughter heard all around

(c) Lissie`s Poems 2024


An tEarrach

Ní thagann an t-earrach ach
nuair a bhláthaíonn na crainn silíní
ag casadh ár saol bándearg
mar sin, ag tabhairt áthas dár gcroí
gáire geal le cloisteáil timpeall

Glasgow

Gaelic name Ghlaschu means "Dear Green Place"
Largest city in Scotland and 4th in United kingdom
A ship building mega on the Clyde from 15th Century
Striking `Glasgow Tower` stand 417 feet tall
Glasgow was founded in 6th Century
Oldest tree stumps are found in "Fossil Grove"
Wondrous underground railway named The Clockwork Orange

Pink Snow

pink snow falling softly
hovering slowly in the air
silently drifting to the ground
covering all with out a care

with soft sweet scent about
filling the atmosphere
Mother natures is stirring
spring time must be here

bees buzzing amongst flowers
collecting nectar for their hive
as the air is filled with pollen
everything feels so alive

for spring, glorious spring
has arrived at last
pink snow followed by fruit
nature is full of contrast

Bournemouth

Beautifully kept beach, seven miles of gorgeous golden sands
Oceanarium, fun filled experience from reef sharks to feeding turtles
Ultimate experience and great views from the Bournemouth Big Wheel
Reputation as a health resort and one of the sunny spots in the UK
New Forest, is an outstanding area to roam and explore among the ponies
Every year over 750,000 ice creams of many different flavours are sold
Most loved colourful beach huts along the sea front are highly prized
Old Harry Rocks, chalky headland stretching out into the sea
Used to be barren heathland for pirate smugglers until the 19th century
Thanks to its consistent waves and sandy beach, it`s a great place to surf
Hundred and fifty years old pier with great entertainment and sea views

Life is full of many balloons
floating freely through nature
brightly coloured in the sun
each one we should treasure

 Thank you

A huge thank you to a special friend
who went out of their way to help
such a struggling neighbour
in a caring kind way
good people exist
communities
together
helping
all

Moon

as the moon`s arc crosses the sky
surrounded by a million stars
ever travelling along its path
casting an eerie light over the earth
as onward through the heavens it goes....!

Chivalrous knights 

This gallery of nobles

dressed in their finery
seated around the king
regal colours and ivory

knights dressed in armour
attendants ever ready
this tournament is set
atmosphere so heady

to win the great reward
young men to prove their worth
facing the king`s champion
this is their right since birth

the sounds of thunderous hooves
and mighty horses racing past
followed by clash of lances
their reactions need to be fast

defeated, the losers leave
the triumphant knights celebrate
with honours bestowed by the king
new champion they nominate

loud cheers of excited crowds
after the joust has been won
so let the feast commence
this kingdom will have some fun!
