Well, my life as a Copy-writer has recently begun and has provided me with a positive attitude. Not that I didn’t have a positive attitude already, just that this copy-writing caper has energised my free-thinking and directed me to thoughts of love. Ahhh, love. Now there’s a topic we all, well…love. So here’s an ode […]

The Cotton Dress
He slunked down to the ground He saw a shadow, not his own “Where have you been?” She asked him with surprise. “I’ve been here getting shade From the baking morning sun.” The park was empty But for their huon cries. “You left me,” she said, scolding him. “You wanted time alone. Besides, […]
Night-time
Night-time wouldn’t show itself Until Sunshine moved away Like a road-way that disappears in flood Like a child who will stray Night-time hid away God knows where Like a sock hides in a shoe Not wanting to come out and play Like when I played hide and seek with you The pages turned […]
I built a home
in honour of those who have… I achieved where many others failed – I’m satisfied though many others aren’t. My path told me to walk the path I could And led me away from the path I can’t. And sacrifice instructed me to stay As loss, oh loss, would lead me to succeed. Certainty would […]

Swings and round-a-bouts
Happiness found in day at Fair, Worry left at home. Sadness knocking on neighbour’s door As Concern’s left lying on the floor. Excitement joins Happiness at the Fair – Anxiety lost along the road – Sleeplessness found in another’s bed – Loneliness’ is Gloom – Gloom sees red. Delight joins his friends at […]

Pictures and words
Words, they drew me unto you An easel read to me A letter, brush A page, a stroke Mono-syllabically Delight, to write A bird, in flight A feather on the floor Chapter, aloud In front of crowd More come through open door Sit anywhere Drawn to share On easel is a portrait […]
Tomorrow, today
Every day I live Is yesterday for me A life half gone – but Yet to begin Every day I live Is tomorrow, newly found A life, renewed to Live without, within Twenty-four hours Passes by Today’s tomorrow now A life I dreamt But never thought Would come Three days ago Was […]
