Jack Frost...

My window is covered in ice

a white blanket engulfs everything

spiky branches silhouette the moon

as a mist can be seen all around

the howling winds swirl about

temperatures have dipped below zero

glistening spider webs span the plants

tiny foot prints across my path way

Jack Frost has been dancing here

he has left his mark for all to see

Its getting colder now as winter is tapping on my door

I remember stories of Jack Frost when I was a kid.

Flowers of Remembrance

Bright flowers sparkle in the sunlight

each one unique in it`s own way

a remembrance of those poppy fields

something to inspire us everyday

yellows, purples, reds and greens

 a ladybird, cat and strawberries

vivid colours inspire us all

we should never forget their stories

 five local soldiers lost their lives

as four families were ripped apart

their memories will stay with us

in crafted flower from the heart

Secret Woodland

along the old abandoned lane

 through an ancient woodland

 hazy sunshine lingers 
unwilling to bend to man`s command

many hues of nature`s colours
fills the pathway in a timeless mist
sunlight flickers through leaves
landscape caressed and kissed

silence broken only by sweet notes
as feathers catch the light
song birds bring the wood to life
adding to this wondrous sight!

Life`s Journey.....

Life is but a stepping stone

along our journey together

though our paths have separated

we`ll be reunited forever

As the sun dips below the horizon
I`m wrapped in the darkness of night
signalling me to lay down my pen
and rest my weary body after a busy day
for now`s the time to allow my thought to flow

As the sun spreads slowly across my desk
I`m ready to pick up my pen 
and let the ink flow freely across the page
slowly revealing wondrous pictures 
through the words found deep within my soul

Lightning Strikes

Under the black sky of night

 deep rumblings of thunder

 heard in the distance

through torn clouds asunder

a pause in the darkness

 flashes of lightening is seen

racing across the entire sky

where silence had once been

white veins of electricity

sheer power brightens the sky

lighting up the landscape

after Thunder is heard to cry

the stage is set for the show

as Thunder sings their song

and Lightening illuminates

as we the audience look on !
