Just Saying!

It's hard to keep up

when people start to change

loyalties are stretched

emotions feel strange

yet a smile costs nothing

and a greeting is free

so cut all this anger

come and say Hi to me!

(c) Lissie's Poems 2025

 

Creativity is like a kaleidoscope

filled with imagination and inspiration

colours blend, ideas dance and laughter is heard

life is full of mystery, intrigue and wonder

grab them quick and see where they take you!

Pictures in my Head

sat here with pen in hand

poised to write the next verse

images rolling around my mind

penning these creations can be a curse

I see pain, sunsets and love

visions both cruel and sweet

yet I must select the right one

this urge to write will not be beat

ink flows across my paper

words painting pictures for me

like an image slowly forming

yet it doesn't always set me free

once started I have go on

until the piece in complete

freestyle or verse, prose or haiku

my pen dances over many a sheet

for poetry completes my day

visualizing their imagery

painting pictures with words from the heart

that can be seen so vividly

Smile, it`s Autumn

Autumn, such a fantastic season

filled with many vibrant colours

from orange, brown, red and yellow

with trees dressed up in colourful coats

nights drawing in and colder

sitting by a crackling log fire

warmed by a frothy hot chocolate 

Autumn gets us every time it arrives!

Friendship  Bear

I am a little friendship bear

looking for somewhere to live

please take me home with you

as I have loads of hugs to give

Gifted White Feather

As I ambled through the woods

I suddenly felt you beside me 

you entwined your arm in mine

your presence was comforting

as we chatted along the path

rounding the final corner

I felt your arm slip away 

it was a surreal experience

being able to feel you there

a loving memory to remember

where you left me on the path

I find a little fluffy white feather

thank you my love, for your gift

I know we`ll will meet again!

I love autumn, all the bright colours on thee trees, squirrels burying their store of nuts.  Days get shorter and night are longer, bright colours dawns and sunsets too!

Start of Autumn

September rumblings
autumn`s now on its way

warmth slowly leaving the sun
cold blue skies here to stay

shorter day and longer night

colourful dawns and sunset hues

weather`s unpredictable

time to find waterproof shoes

bright colours on the trees
they`re changing their attire
orange, reds and yellows
summer can now retire

it`s like another world
low lying misty mornings
everything is shrouded
sending winter warnings

crunchiness under foot
and a bite in the air
wrap up now and stay warm
it`s time to take good care

September's a great month
marks a change in the year
for earth start to sleep
as winter will soon be here..

Autumn Colours

Autumn is a magical time of the year

as the trees put on a vibrant fashion show

wearing reds, oranges and bright yellows

painting woodlands in autumn colours

a mixture of warm, rich and earthy tones

before winter comes knocking at the door

Autumn Hog

snuggled amidst the colourful leaves
deep within a silent woodland
small hogs slumber quietly
surrounded by nature
sleep well little one
warm and cosy
leaf  littered
hedgehog
hides
