Urban Sunset

City sky line ablaze with colour

illuminating the dying day

bright oranges and yellow

as the sun moves on it`s way

Helping Paws

What ever is over there behind the wall

want to know who`s making that sound

lend us a paw and let`s see what`s there

give us a lift, hope it`s not the dog pound!

there they were, one holding up the other

the strain was there for all to see

claws dug in the wood with all their might

two little kittens exploring happily

Good Night, 

Sweet Dreams 

Silent drifting moon
reflected in the ocean
ebb and flow of waters
creating gentle motion

so sleep on sweetly
under this starry night
gently rocked by the waves
bathed in wondrous mystic light

Let my pen flow...
free to roam across the page
painting pictures from my heart
hinder it not....
for its life force flows from the soul!

Our beating hearts  ….

a soft round ball of fur

curled up in a comfy bed

slow rhythmic breathing

what dream are in your head?

after such a busy day

it`s good to see you rest

love watching you snooze

special friend so blessed!

Friendship  Bear

I am a little teddy bear

lost on a road without an end

please take me home to be with you

for I would love to be your friend

Precious Secrets.

treasures held in secret
defended to the bitter end
protected from our enemies
who can we trust if not a friend?

discoloured through the years
though ancient words all faded
tainted by it`s mysteries
secured by dagger bladed

deception, spells and treachery
never to see the light of day
for these precious secrets
are now safely locked away

Wintry Morning

Stepping out the door

with gloves and keys in hand

the car is covered in ice

encased in a layer of white

there`s scraping to be done!

it takes some time to clear

through billowing clouds of breath

and numb fingers fumbling

ice slowly scrapped away

the chore is now complete!

once sat in the driver`s seat

with blowers on full blast

as the car is all steamed up

soon be time to set off

and explore the wintry world!

Let me be your Valentine

hold you in my arms

 look into your sparkling eyes

taste your luscious lips

be yours for eternity

It`s time to flop down

and whisper a good night

I`ve bounced so much today

 I`ll sleep til morning light !

Written Memories

At the end of the day 
I lay down my pen
and think of all that I have written about

emotions and feelings...
or a photograph

hidden by a layer of dust

anniversaries 

that stir up heart ache

gosh I`m missing you mum!

all memories ,,,,,
that I've held within my heart

now giving them new life
through the ink that I use
reliving a bygone time
as they dance across the papers

painting pictures 
that I can remember
cherishing those moments
that I hold so dear.....

never to be forgotten !
