To Remind Me How To Be
The painting hanging on the wall
With its multicolored hues
Brings forth an evocation of the time
That I had spent loving you
The warm tones speak to the love
The laughter and the joy
The wonder of the life we created
Our beautiful baby boy
The yellows speak of…
First Loves
That spring morning we fell in love
The green sparkle in your eyes
Drew me in so quickly
It caught me by surprise
Your skin so soft and yielding
Your lips so red and searching
And when we walked through the park
Your hand in my hand so loving
That…
Putting Pen to Paper
Sweet syllables of love
Slip easily from my pen
And Loves twin, heartbreak
I write of, now and then
I love to write of rainbows
Moonbeams and sunshine
When I put pen to paper
My inspiration’s so inclined
Children’s laughter, youthful dreams
Happy memories from my past
Embracing my beautiful wife
Whose love…
Ghouls or Trick or Treaters
Cold wind blowing fright
Reddening my cheeks
My trembling hands aching
Tucked into deep pockets
Breath billowing into the twilight air
Stomping feet on rain-soaked ground
Exhilaration spreading through
Expanded chest on fire
My favourite time of year has come
When the spirit world is closest
But a slither of light separates…
A Love Born
The school window is inviting
Drawing my tired eyes
As I peer through the smeared glass
Whilst trying to stifle my tired sighs
The classroom full and boring
As the teacher drones on and on
About subjects that hold no interest
From class, I feel withdrawn
I wipe my woollen…
I’ll Be On My Way
If we pass on the street
I will tip my hat to you
Pass swift, quiet greetings
Then be on my way
Almost as strangers
With so little in common
So little interaction
Lost in worlds of our own
As but another face in the crowd
A neighbour from childhood
The…
My Life In Writing
Writing stories and poems
From but a babe in arms
Enjoying every moment
And doing it for myself
My parents loved them
And my teachers did too
But most of all I loved the lives
They allowed me to escape to
Sweet poems about my puppy
The adventures I had too
Commemorated…
The Only Place I Want To Be
I grew up amongst good friends
In a council house in our small town
My childhood idyllic, at least in my memory
No money to spare but good times had
The summers were warm, the laughter, contagious
My friends were happy, and forever around
We were so close, we were almost family
The…
