Good night little kitty
such a soft bundle of fur
dream all your sweet dreams
as you slumber and purr

It`s snowing outside.
Settled by the roaring fire
glowing embers from within
crackling as the logs burn
feeling the warmth on my skin
snuggled up on the couch
as the daylight slowly dies
cosy under luxurious furs
while flames mesmerise my eyes
outside the snow is falling
covering the world in white
feel safe and warm by the fire
as the day slips into night

Importance of lost loved ones.
When someone we love passes on,
many precious memories are created
so we are able to celebrate their life
and all the contributions they made
with all the joy they brought to us
this helps to comfort the ones left behind
thinking about all the wonderful people
I have lost over the past few year.
I have lost over the past few year.
Love and miss them always xXx

Feathered Samurai
This stunning kestrel watches all
missing nothing with his keen sight
chest puffed out with sheer pride
a coiled spring, all ready for flight
such an awesome bird to behold
he has the strength to over power
then bring down his enemy
this magnificent warrior
dressed so smartly in rustic red
head cap and wings a deep slate blue
dark beady eyes and sharp hooked beak
brings fear to all who come into view
with long sharp menacing talons
as his most striking feature
he`s mastered all that he surveys
this powerful cunning creature
tt`s a wonderful privilege
to watch him glide high in the sky
and to hear his call on the wind
as he dives down on his prey with flair
fly free with the wind dear kestrel
soar high above the countryside
smartly dressed in your fine colours
knowing your there, fills us with pride!

What poetry means ....
Poetry is such a personal way to express one`s feeling ... portraying an image, smell, place, sound, colour or emotion .... slowing others to experience they way we feel.
I am inspired by so many different things from an emotions or feeling to a photography or a word. My poetry is an expression of my inspiration through words that well up from deep within my soul.
Painting pictures through the words from me heart, letting the ink from my pen flow freely across a sheet of paper, like a dancer expression the music around a stage. Movement through expression feeling wonderful.
The muse to write can be stimulated at any moment, where it be night or day. Pen and paper always at the ready, never knowing what image will appear, thus encouraging the verse to form.
Poetry is a pat of me and always will be, it has helped me cope with my darkest times. It`s through the darkest moment that poetry came to me and now it`s my life.
I now hope to bring poetry to others, helping them express their emotions, passions and feeling. Releasing their hopes, fears and dreams, enabling them to more forward along their life`s journey.
Long may I be able to write, paint pictures with words, and stories that others can feels deep within their soul.

as a mother watches her child
peace and calm across your face
the steady rhythm of your breathing
as your mind drifts away
what dreams are you dreaming?
where is your peaceful haven?
the place you go to get away
as your body rests from its toils
I so wish that I could be
resting in your arms right now
safely wrapped up in slumber
as we both dream our dreams

The Orchard Coffee & Co
Coffee in the church
is an interesting feeling
a place of religion
in the high ceiling
a "holy" atmosphere
to be shared by everyone
many fresh aromas
do call in and join the fun
sip coffee from tin cups
on quirky furniture
wooden panels and old tools
brings us back to nature
meeting in this church
is a relaxing place to be
with great food to taste
come and share a coffee !

Hint of Spring
As the snowdrops peep
through the hard earth
Spring is in the air
lighting up the flowers
shafts of green leaves
with white hanging heads
swaying the the breeze
between the showers
and bright blue skies
but just to remind us
a chill wintry wind blows
Winter has not left yet
Buds on the branches
join with the snowdrops
thus encourage spring
to come in dancing
life is so alive
as birds are singing
come and join with us
in the merriment..!
Snowdrops, daffodils and crocuses, with birds singing and warmer days
Spring is in the air..!!

Spring Tranquility
Yellow trumpets blowing in the breeze
red cups pointing upwards to the sky
with tall grasses swaying in-between
standing so proud, no need to be shy
speckled sun light filters through the trees
leaving dappled patterns on the ground
the air`s filled with the scent of flowers
nature`s harmony is all around
this world of forest green and flowers
that mesmerize you in every way
such tranquility and peacefulness
a great place to sit, relax and stay
It has been such a wonderful day, spring has arrived and the sun is out and there`s warm in the air. Flowers every where. I just feel like sitting down and relaxing out in this sun.

Silence after your death was felt so vividly
creating an aching void, deep within my heart
for you were such a massive part of my life
how can I continue now my soul is ripped apart
the memory of your life is etched across my soul
an intricate pattern interlaced with my own
you were a rock that supported us all
how am I going to cope now I`m all alone ?
I find myself thinking of you more each day
knowing that you're watching me from above
each time I feel down, you send me a white feather
to show just how much you hold me in your love 💕
