Merry Christmas !

With the tree now decorated
and the presents wrapped up too
cards festooned around the room,
time to spend Christmas with you

stockings hang from the mantelpiece
while a roaring log fire warms
watching the snow falling outside
as the landscape slowly transforms

what will Santa bring this year
to all the good girls and boys
they will have to wait until the morn
for their gifts of sweets and toys

so taking this moment to relax
before the festive season starts
just wanted to wish a Merry Christmas
from the bottom of our hearts


Have a wonderful Christmas everyone!

Heaven

Heaven is a place I would love to be
bright, tranquil, full of harmony
somewhere calm to rest my weary wings
amongst the clouds where an angel sings
white robes, bare footed and full of love
sat in God`s garden, there up above
looking down on earth so full of woe
glad I`m up there and not down below
the best bit of all is, I`d be with you
by your side all eternity through.....



Missing all the loved ones that I have lost along lives way.......

Lone Tree at Dusk

Through the evening hues
the setting sun is seen
behind silhouetted trees
so visibly crisp and clean

a dark lone tree stands tall
against this colourful sky
each and every leaf detail
so clear to the naked eye

vivid patterns in the sky
ever changing and bright
radiating from the sun
the central point for all the light

last rays of the setting sun
spreading colours all around
dipping below the horizon
dusk slips in without a sound!

Golf....!

A day of golfing is in order
stepping out on the fairway
ball on tee and club in hand
it`s time to hit the green and play..!

Tennis...!

With racquet in hand, ready for her match
trying to look good dressed up in white
each point earned with so much vigour
hoping that her nickers didn`t look too tight !

Christmas is coming !

Snowman shaped poem.



Snowman

Standing

All alone

Proudly in the garden

Coal for eyes

Carrot for a nose

Pipe in his mouth

Smiling happily
All watchful
In a white landscape

Red scarf around his neck

Black buttons down his front

Twigs sticking out for the arms

Looking so smart standing here

Amongst all this wintry scenery 

Watching out for Father Christmas

So then he can go join his friends

At the festive season celebrations

For our winter wonderland guard
Standing there in our garden
Merry Christmas everyone!

Nap time

A bundle of purring fur
sleeping cosy on my lap
hiding her face from light
as she continue her nap

Standing proud on the horizon
a master of all he surveys

handsome, and he knows it
commanding so much praise !
