Our Holiday!!

Paper thin walls that hide nothing
narrow corridors with no windows
never enough storage or drawers
small beds with tiny flat pillows

all the shoes stored by the doorway
fridge crammed full of all that`s needed
towels and swim things draped everywhere
normal rules need not be heeded

our car`s parked on a patch nearby
the play area`s across the site
a plot of grass outside our door
for our blanket, it fits just right!

no matter what the weather does
we will explore, visit and roam
having a great time on holiday
so for this week, this is our home !!

A Simple Smile

It's a simple thing really
a curve between two points
that lights up your eyes
and loosens up the joints !

capturing the moment
is the order of the day
creating happy vibes
in each and every way !

Afternoon Nap

caught in the afternoon sunlight
enjoying a lazy snooze on the window sill
fur warming in the heat of the summer
a hint of breath, all else is perfectly still

for this feline friend is taking her nap
recharging her batteries after her play
while lapping up all the bright sunshine
ready to cause havoc, later in the day!

this sleepy little pussy cat yawns
stretching the whole length of the window
then settles down to snooze once more
so comfortable on her soft pillow!

World Bee day!   

Giving thanks to our humble bumble bees, that do so much for us in our gardens.










Mr Bumble Bee 

loud buzzing  announces
there are bumble bees about
hopping from flower to flower
collecting the pollen while out

his big fat striped body
held high on stubby wings
buzzing around everywhere
following directions from one that sings

love to hear him, as he goes
its a sign that summers here
pollinating the fruit trees
I salute him with a cheer!

great sounds of the bumble bees
Yay! its summertime again..!!

Memories are important to me, they help to keep Steve in my heart. I remember the little things about him and what we did together. To lose these would be devastating, so I lock them within my heart and draw on them in times of sadness, as they perk me up and keep me going ❤





Memories
Memories, memories
all my treasures put together
creating heart felt joy
held in my soul forever
there are good memories
of the wonderful things I have done
those special memories
good times, happy times, having fun!
some are sad memories
ones I would rather forget
they are still memories
placed in my soul with no regret
time for new memories
to fill my heart with all that`s great
I love my memories
they`re special, so lets celebrate!!

It`s incredible to think it`s been 15 years since my husband, Steve, was given his wings and set free without any more suffering.   I miss my soulmate and companion in life but I know he watches over me everyday and I am lucky to have my four amazing and talented kids around me too  💗  x



Soulmate

It feels like a lifetime ago
since the angels took you away
gave you a set of white wings
as they set you free that day

it`s remembered little moments
special times we spent together
with each photo, letter, memory
and treasuring each white feather

for you`ll always be in my heart 
watching over your family
one day we will be together
but til then, I miss you dearly

Nature, the healer

 through good times or bad
Mother Nature heals the soul
from a torn and tattered heart
making broken senses whole

from sounds of birds singing
to watch a heron standing proud
while ducks waddle by the lake
quacking their happiness so loud

buttercups, daisies and blossom
filling the air with gorgeous scent
nature the healer is all around
instilling peace and contentment
