Puss In Boots !

In boots so exquisite
he strides along the way
this master Pussy Cat
he'll always save the day!

beautiful big green eyes
under his feathered hat
soft fur that's so elegant
he's such a masterful cat !

if you ever need his help
when there's danger in the air
he'll defend your honour
with such vigour and flare !

My Little Angel

Sleep well my little one
it's time for slumber
darkness of the night is here
and the moon shines bright
let the stars sparkle above
while you dream away
snuggle up and close your eyes
for I'll protect you until dawn
so sleep well tonight
my sweet little angel!

Reflections of my world

heavy streaks of water
makes my view a muddle
for my upside down world
is nestled in a puddle

rippling in the breeze
disappearing in an instant
by the marching passers-by
destroying all so distant

all that I can see, is
reflections all around
distorted and yet clear
my world on the ground.

it`s funny how a puddle reflects our distorted world.......

Setting them free.....

Through the silence of a family home
where all have now flown from the nest
like butterflies out of an open window
holding onto memories so blessed

Set them free to experience life
and watch them continue their journey
be content with all you've taught them
through your guidance, they're more than worthy!

Fly..!


Fly my children fly
like butterflies through an open window
freedom is but a short distance
to flutter on through their lives.

Journey onwards
to experience everything in life
tasting all that's on offer 
so fly.....feel the sun on your wings !

Ride cancelled by the rain

Drenched through to the core
as water streams down
splashing over everything
cascading to the ground
roaring around the yard
heavy droplets landing
stopping the journey dead
this ride cancelled by the rain

These bikes stand there alone
as the storm rages on
no chance of staying dry
for everything is drowned
this adventure has ceased
at least for this afternoon
just wait until tomorrow
and our journey will resume

Sleeping Cat


I see a sleeping cat 
at the end of my bed
shaped like a crescent moon, 
what dreams in her head?

with legs stretched out 
and her tail curled round
she almost looks dead 
because she makes no sound

if you look carefully 
her breathe is very slow
such a little minx 
but I love her so

ears pricked up sharp 
as she lays at rest
looks so content 
if poked she would protest !

looks so tranquil there
but she knows what`s going on
don`t let her fool you
she thinks it`s so much fun

I see a snoozing cat 
who`s watchful of the day
peacefully sleeping
but alert in every way !
