Christmas Fayre

Bright lights and sparkling candles
sweet smell of scents in the air
as the festive season's started
it's time to wander around the fayre

all the stalls laid out to view
the atmosphere's electric
so much to see and take in
hustle and bustle, so hectic

people stop to take a look
all searching for a bargain
so much choice to be seen
may have to go around again

festive music can be heard
followed by a "Ho Ho Ho!!
Father Christmas has just popped in
kids are happy before they go

It's cold outside in the snow
but warm and inviting in here
so let's enjoy this memorable time
and give a Christmas cheer !!

Sugar Pink Delight

Soft pink candy

sugar sweet scent

pale in the sun

and heaven sent

velvety touch

 sweet to the eyes

swaying gently

as the air sighs

creamy tinged petals

among the green

shiny dark leaves

a picture seen

rose of my heart

giving pleasure

heavenly beauty

and nature`s treasure.

Moments......

A moment in time
is all it takes
to let your pen flow
and a lifetime
of remembrance
to hold the words dear....

Thoughts.....

Through this misty morn, 
the ink of my pen still flows
painting pictures from my mind
     that bring colour to my world......

Twinkle Twinkle Little Star

A 

star

upon

the top

of our tree

shining brightly
a gift for our world

lighting up this merry Christmas season of cheer

sparkling brightly with the many decorations

coloured tinsel, baubles, twinkling lights

bringing great  joy to  the festivities

this little star shines out with joy

proclaiming good will to men

with powdery       snow  falling

the fire side              so warming

this   little                        sweet star

shining                                  brightly

upon                                          the top
 our                                                  tree

Patchwork

 Patch work buildings

 A wibble wobble world

blocks of different colours

that make up our lives

slanted windows

with many angles

straight links that don`t link

pale blue sky over head

yet a mish mosh  on the ground

unique perceptions seen

when`s the door way

into a safe haven?

what will I see when I look out?

in this kaleidoscope 

of my patch work world!!

Angels

Where do angels go to sleep

once they've left my side?

do they fall off the clouds

as they watch me from above

these questions intrigue me

for life`s full of mysteries

helping the world go round

as angels fills our life with love

That fateful day...

sadness that flows deep inside me
the yearning for our memories too
for the loss of a distant future
that will no longer be spent with you

this disease that has taken hold
that`s eating away at your core
depriving us of our happiness
as you slip slowly away from me more

you`re weaker and weaker each day
as it strips you of all your strength
I see.. but a shell of the man I loved
this fight stretched to its full length

so please remember that I cared
and stayed by your side all the way
we had to make the most of our time
as if for us...it was our last day!

for memories are all I have now
my heart will never again be whole
the day you passed on....is engraved
so deeply within my sad soul
