Rainbows

An arc of bright colours
stretching across the sky
with seven different stripes
I`m left wondering why 

Red as rich as fresh blood
orange as bright as the sunset
yellow just like the hot sun
blue as the ocean I`ll never forget

Indigo a rich exotic colour

and last but not least, violet

that fishes the rainbow

forming a beautiful sight

Bedtime.....!

Night creeps in through a key hole
and takes me by surprise
street lights illuminate outside
while my bed now beckons from the dark
as I slowly climb the stairs to slumber....!

Reflective moments

calming my inner peace

gentle ripples on the surface

a sense of release

tranquil meditation 

is the aim for this day

relaxation of the soul

slowly easing stress away

Dancing Inks

My coloured inks

poised there ready

to conjure up images

words with meanings

to instil emotions

make the heart beat faster

or the soul to weep

rainbow kaleidoscopes

racing across the pages

dancing words of joy

to sorrowful laments

these words

these inks

powerful motivators

creating written pictures

love to create images through the power of words

Tonight........

who ever you may be
where ever you may go
I pray angels will always 
protect and watch over you......heart emoticon

Mother Earth

I stand here on the pinnacle of the world
watching over all that was made by man
while angelic angels champion above
wondering how we could ruin God`s plan

For Mother Earth is suffering so badly
as man strips her of her treasures
polluting all of the worlds resources
and extinguishing so many creatures

Will we ever be repentant of our greed
and see the error of our wicked ways
if we continue along this evil path
we only hasten the end of all our days


we have to look after the earth if we want to continue dwelling here...

Pumpkins at Halloween

Oh my, there`s a pumpkin on my door step
in the light of day it looks very sad
so cold and dead, should I throw it away?
it has a face carved that makes it look mad

however when the night time comes around
it`s a different story, for it lights up bright
with an evil grin and sharp pointed teeth
makes you feel it`ll jump up at you and bite

but for me it`s the frightening eyes that stare
they appear to watch you where ever you go
will they turn you into a zombie now
as you try to go past that grotesque glow

but remember on this Halloween Night
with the Witches, Ghouls and Zombies around
that the pumpkin head is there to protect
all lit up to ward off evil abound.

Time to Dream

After a day of making memories
with laughter and joy so deep
dream to hold onto and cherish

now it's time to settle down to sleep

all snuggled up and cosy in bed
remembering the events of that day
so wishing to still be back there
amongst the memories to stay

let the moon shine across it's path
and the darkness is all around
there's time to dream through the night
until once more the cockerel does sound !!
