Christmas Holly
Christmas snow lies over the land
surrounded by reds and greens of the holly
beautiful to see yet sharp in hand
may this festive season be so jolly

Autumn to Winter
Autumns golden hues
red and orange and yellow
trees alight with bright colours
carpets of leaves covering the ground
being splashed around by
wellington booted children
clad in scarves, hat and mitts,
puffing clouds of steam
as they race around the park.
The trees are looking bare
now they`ve lost their summer coats
but here and there a holly tree
defiant in its green
squirrels red and grey alike
stocking up their larders
to see the winter through.
Darker now the evenings
and colder all around
people hurrying to get home
to warm their weary bones
The grass is crunchier underfoot
Jack frost has danced around
he leaves the park all muffled
impressions of black and white.
winter has crept in
through the gap in Autumns door
and caught us all unaware
until it shouts BOO !!!!!!
Autumn sneaks up on us and lets winter in......

Dark Depression
standing on the edge of a precipice
darkness looms from deep within
depression is pulling her down
sending shivers across my skin!
many question run through her mind
what decision with become reality
is continued life worth holding on to
or will she be a statistical fatality
a tear running slowly down cheek
emotions are running very high
indicating how this moment feels
step back and live or jump and die!
darkness is calling from deep down
beckoning the end of great pain
offering eternal peace from loneliness
not to accept it would be insane!
