I write poetry from the heart sometimes from the way I feel but purely for the love of it. There are some happy, some sad. Some may be emotive, what ever I hope you enjoy them.  In time I may add more! 

For that once in a lifetime  occasion, I can also write those special lines that you wish to say, but cannot find the words to express how you really feel. . . .

Halloween

I close my eyes as morphyus creeps,

And lay my head to soundly sleep,

To dream of good worse, dream of bad,

But hope for the best sleep I ever had.

The demons howl and goblins sneak,

Then open my eye as I soundly sleep,

To see my dream, they start to slide,

To create much havoc once they’re inside.

I toss and turn, break into sweat,

The dreams not over, the worst comes yet,

It’s witching hour, I scream and yell,

But no one hears, I’m in this hell.

And now I think that all is lost

That late night meal, Oh what a cost!

A crack of light and goodness shines,

The hero rides, to his steed I climb.

And now I’m safe in the arms of he,

Who risked it all to save just me,

From demons and things that lurk in the night,

My own brave champion, Sir Goode “White Knight”

All is now safe as the sun shines through,

My window pane I think “Silly you!”

But what lurks in the wardrobe and failed to leave,

I forgot tonight is all Hallows Eve!!

An Emotive Subject!

Please will someone tell me why,

I do not have the right to die?

My family says “yes”, the government  “no”

My pain is so great its time to go.

***

This burden so long I have borne,

My friends and family it has torn,

The morals and rights of society in question,

In my life to take, I have no hesitation.

 ***

I of sound mind do solemnly declare,

To hold no grudge to the hand that is there.

To lay me to sleep, for one so humane,

Is an angel from God, no law is to blame.

***

So who has the right to say you cannot?

The disease I behold started as one spot,

Its grown so much, now I fight to breath.

To question no more, its time to leave. . .

More Poetry to be loaded up soon!

This is their day, that has finally come true,

A time made so special for Jo and for Drew,

Their vows soon to take, to have and to hold,

From this day forth until they are old.

****

The colours are chosen, pale pink and cream white,

Bedecked first at daybreak until late at night,

The venue now placed deep in Colwick Hall,

Good Wishes today from one and from all.

****

Their bridesmaid’s delight to be chosen today,

To wish Gods speed and luck on their way,

The repast is all over, mothers tear in her eye,

Honeymoon begineth, round the world they will fly.

****

When the confetti has gone & the dress packed away,

The friends and the loved ones will all want to say,

Both Jo and Andrew now as husband and wife,

Not just for tomorrow but the rest of their lives.
