Casting my mind back over this day
remembering the emotions of each event
letting my pen record all so vividly
never wanting them to be forgotten
I'll hold all these within my heart...!

Playful Angels


Oops my halo`s slipped again
I mustn't take it off to play
Maybe I shouldn't remove it at all
An Angel`s image is to stay and pray

I have this desire to skip and jump
Hate being the silent helper too
Want to sing and make daisy chains
Why can`t I dance and play with you?

The Archangels calmly tell me off
They say I should be more demure
Respectful of the old traditions
But making children smile is best for sure

I`m sorry I get it all wrong
Maybe one day I`ll live and learn
But until then we`ll have some fun
Please give me a chance, don`t be too stern!


I was having a joke with my son about "slipping halos" and it got me thinking
This poem is the result, hope you like it...

Night......!


Silence of the night fill me with peace
twinkling stars in a dark sky so relaxing
with sounds of nature all around
that tells me I'm not alone
so let the night take me where it wants........

A Lazy Start....!

As the morning sun creeps across my wall
leaving a trail of bright light along its way
slowly opening my eyes on the world
watching the colourful start to the day

my cat stretches out in the warm rays
purring contently as I stroke her head
her fur is static and soft to the touch
as she snoozes on the end of my bed

so cosy and snug here under my duvet
do I really have to get out of bed now?
want to watch the sun move round a bit more
no need to rush, I`l just take it nice and slow.

               Dancing Words

   painting pictures with words from my pen

         letting my ink flow freely

              dancing letters forming sentences

         telling stories held deep within my soul

                    releasing emotions for all to experience

Cuddles in Bed

There is a warm feeling in my heart

as I watch you beside me sleeping

with your face so peaceful there

wonder what secrets you are keeping

Your eyes flicker with your dreams

I'm curious to know, so take care!

offering you a penny for those thoughts

as I softly stroke your hair

Hearing your steady breathing

snoozing away so gently

I love to see you so relaxed

as you lay there contently

The warmth that you generate

soothing away my aches and pains

thus easing us both into deep sleep

releasing all the days strains

Drifting off into peaceful slumber

wrapped up in your arms so strong

safe in the knowledge that you are there

protecting and loving me all night long

Cuddles aids a great night of dreaming.....

I just wanted to re-share this poem as it's one of my favorite ones

Hope you like it too ✴

Holding onto love

I love to hold on to memories
hold them in my heart
running together through coloured meadows
sat in the garden in summer twilight
giggles and pillow fights
long snuggled up duvet days
these are the riches I hold so dear
making me smile when I think of you...!

                                    New Dawn


            As dawn's first rays creep over the land
                        earth slowly starts to stir 
                it's time to begin a fresh new day
                              wake up !  wake up !
                    time to stimulate the senses once more !!
