Thought I would repost this wintry poem!
Wintry Morning..
I get out of bed and ready
Outside it`s cold and crispy
Wrapped up in coat and scarf
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
With billowing clouds of breath
The chore is now complete
Engine roaring, heater blowing
All strapped in for the ride
The car is steaming up!
It`s now time to set off
And explore the wintery world
I have had to get up early this weekend, and found the car all frozen over, fun and games to clear it, before we are able to drive off !!

Little cloths of my line....
On this sunny afternoon
all pegged up in my cloths line
a row of bright coloured tops
in warm sun light, look's so fine
for these are awesome peg bags
so pretty and all handmade
flags, flowers and vivid patterns
all hanging there on parade
each one is a work of art
crisp and fresh for all to see
these my sweet little peg bags
so proud they`re made by me..!

A year In Rhyme
January was cold and wet
Can`t believe it`s a new year
So much here to celebrate
Let`s start it off with a cheer
February is much the same
Though there was Valentine`s day
Mother earth is waking up
Which means spring is on its way
March is the month for Easter
Where spring should now appear
Away with the winter blues
An egg hunt is happening here
April is the month for fools
Sill pranks are all around
Puts a smile upon your face
For there`s happiness abound
May dances in with such flair
Songs and merriment too
Farm hands are working so hard
As crops begin to peep through
June then leaps in with flowers
As the garden`s in full bloom
It`s great to welcome summer
Lazy times here we assume
July can be a stressful month
Exams are now in full swing
Soon there`ll be the holidays
And beach boys will then be king
August brings hot summer days
Six weeks off from all the schools
Foreign travel to distant parts
Barbecues and swimming pools
September hails term again
It`s back to education
Though the weather is still warm
After that great vacation!
October and now autumn`s here
The nights are getting shorter
Reds, oranges and yellows
We`re into the fourth quarter
November means fire works
And Remembrance Sunday too
The trees are stripped of their leaves
And Jack Frost has skipped on through
December brings in winter
It has been an awesome year
Merry Christmas one and all
Hope the next is full of cheer!!
Happy New Year

Evening Breeze
With gentle breeze
upon the shore
upon the shore
as the sun begins to dip
shadows growing longer
with evening upon us
like wine, so sweet
waves ebb and fro
across the shore line
with vivid colours seen
peace has calmed the air
cool waters rolling
soothing sounds are heard
as sea claws at the sand
be still thou aching heart
for day is all but over
night time brings sleep
oranges and yellows
streak across the sky
the earth grows darker
has calmly touched the world
as the tide falls away
what treasures revealed
brought upon the ocean
presented to the land
where sand meets ocean
it instills meditation
this peaceful inner state
is music to the soul
there is tranquility
as sun slips slowly away
with evening upon us
like wine, so sweet
waves ebb and fro
across the shore line
with vivid colours seen
peace has calmed the air
cool waters rolling
soothing sounds are heard
as sea claws at the sand
be still thou aching heart
for day is all but over
night time brings sleep
oranges and yellows
streak across the sky
the earth grows darker
has calmly touched the world
as the tide falls away
what treasures revealed
brought upon the ocean
presented to the land
where sand meets ocean
it instills meditation
this peaceful inner state
is music to the soul
there is tranquility
as sun slips slowly away

Minds
what dreams do to the minds and hearts
is a wondrous thing
many stories of love, some stories of loss
and songs we care to sing
for what is done and what is said
has many twists and turns
when eyes can see the story speaks
which lessons will you learn?
so look deep inside your soul
you'll find an abundance of hope
for this is what's keeps us going
and a safe guard that helps us to cope
remember to always be positive
this will help you along life's journey
do unto others as you would like
you'll become a person most worthy.!

Grandmother
Grandmothers are wonderful
cuddly, kind and gentlesomeone to turn to
when troubled times are here
I love my grandmama
she's always so much fun
love sitting on her lap
while it's story time
exploring new places
or trying new treats
running around forests
and stamping through puddles
chasing away monsters
to making cornflake cakes
these are just a few
of my favourite things
to share with you
my dear grandmother.

Nature's Tear
Soft red velvet touch
yielding to emotion
single tear that's held
a sign of devotion
This droplet holds a world
as if it's upside down
revealing such mysteries
clinging onto its crown
A tender sense of passion
as the tear gently falls
for gravity its mistress
and disappointment calls
Much beauty in the flower
and nature has its way
there's sorrow in this passing
at the end of the day.
