Stormy times ahead

Stormy times ahead so...
batten down the hatches
stock up the cupboards
then seal all the latches
cold winds blowing
snow is coming
hard rain lashing
stormy times ahead

block up the doorways
check all windows as well
logs ready for the fire
this`ll be the storm from hell
windows rattling
snow is pitching
rivers swirling
stormy times ahead

huddled near the fire place
winds howling all around
settled in for the duration
as the storm hits the ground
winds so freezing
snow now falling
fireside blazing
Stormy times are here !

Frozen Rainbow

Through a frosted surface
feathered features can be spied
bathed in many different colours
this rainbow trapped inside

delicate details preserved
capturing a moment in time 
this wonder of sheer beauty
shows nature at it`s prime !
such a little frozen world
so colourful to the eye
caught up in an icy orb
this miniature bubble we see !!

Walkies in the Rain

Racing around the park
paws splashing in puddles
sunshine and showers
with rainbows all ablaze
jumping in the lake
all through the afternoon
as you chase the ducks
in and out the waters
your fur dripping wet
all the fun and games 
as the sun comes out
feeling warmth on your face
watching you shake
shake all the rain from your fur
twisting and turning
spraying rain drops
in different directions
baring your teeth n a grin
and your soak me too!
love our walkies in the rain

Depression

such a feeling of total failure
where every mole hill`s a mountain
with loose rocks ready to hurt!
invisible, alone
trapped in cold darkness
fearful of life
with doors locked
all hope
gone!

Emotion

we`re made up of many emotions
feelings felt deep within the heart
strong passions flowing freely
mixed with everyday life
sorrow, anger, love
to name a few
surround us
hold us
tight
💜

Berries & Carnations

Rosy red petals caught in sunlight
bright cascading berries shimmer
sweet scent of nature's perfume
lighting up this dull day
aromas of tea
wafting on by
lifts my heart
pleasing 
sight

Kitchen is closed today
don't want to cook no more
going to have some fun
not do another chore!

outside in the sunshine
with many things to see
I'm going to explore
for I want to be free

maybe I'll go flying
or travel to the west
see what's under water
don't want to sit and rest!

I'm sure you'll understand
me needing time away
tomorrow I'll be back
kitchen is closed today!!
