Happy Birthday Paula

Paula

There`s someone special that I admire 

for her joy, strength and commitment 

though life`s never been easy

she`s continued to smile

met through our poems

enjoy your day

dear Paula

This is a little nonet I write for a fellow poet on her birthday!

Daft side of Christmas

running around like headless chickens

when buying gift for one and all

outdoing the neighbour`s lights

filling the larder with food

putting up the tree

eat turkey roast

drink some wine

knackered

sleep!!

Christmas Cheer!

It`s that time of year again
the excitement is growing
everyone has their secrets
there`s no sign of it slowing

Shopping bags and packages
sticky tape, and wrapping paper...
cards written and presents done
all this fun is such a caper

Decorations all in place
just love the atmosphere
raise you glass everyone

for Christmas time is here!

Christmas count down has started !!

Vampire

Villain of the night
Able to transform into a bat
Master of deceit 
Pale with no reflection
Incisors sharpened for the kill
Ready to draw blood to survive
Ever to remain youthful!

Witches

Wonderful world of witchcraft
Incantations and spells
Toad`s poison and spider's webs
Cauldron brewing on the open fire
Haunting cackles can be heard
Ever ready to cast their spells
Spooky Halloween is here

(Lissie Bull 2019

Halloween

It`s the spookiest night of the year

when ghouls and ghosts come out to play

lit lanterns and carved pumpkins

and eerie spider webs

as trick or treaters 

visit each home

dressed to scare

spooky
fun!

Jack O`Lantern

Round face
Orange face
Staring out for me
Carved face
Lit face
Shining out at me
Gruesome smile
Cheeky eyes
Candles lit I see
Scary face
Pumpkin head
My Jack O`Lantern be.....

Happy Halloween!!

Painting Passions

Through the warmth of my heart

the ink in my pen flows across the pages

painting scenes found deep within my soul

let my words dance along the lines

showing the world my passions...!

eleven aside, dressed in white

bat in hand and stumps at the ready

willow on leather, hit for a six

with an umpire holding the game all steady !

Tennis...!

With racquet in hand, ready for her match

trying to look good dressed up in white

each point earned with so much vigour

hoping that her knickers didn`t look too tight !

murmuration seen
ever changing in the sky
beauty on the wing

The Flying Businessman

Pete the flying businessman
soaring through the skies
Paraffin Pete in his Cessna
every journey`s a surprise.

living in Cirencester
giving life a loving call
working hard in Switchgears
instrumentations and all.

Pete has his claim to fame though
he schooled with our PM
learning with D Cameron
Wow!, are they buddies, then?

as Pete works hard and fast
his leisure time he needs
polo with its` chukkas
and pool, where he succeeds

Paraffin Pete, the flier
who always has a smile
say "Hi " if you meet him
our businessman with style.
