Wishful Thinking… I can always do more than I think If I push myself right to the brink Face my fears day by day Trust I’ll find my own way Hold my head up and hope I don’t sink...

My Love of a List
I love writing a bullet-point list To be sure that there’s nothing I’ve missed Some by hand, some typeset All those things I’d forget Some complete notes, and some just the gist Stream of Consciousness Saturday: List
Fifty Seven and Counting
My fifty-seventh birthday is today I just can’t help but ponder growing old Retirement is one short decade away I picture what my future life might hold Imagining myself in years to come No longer working for my daily crust I’ll potter in my garden just for fun And spare some time for housework if I must But hopefully my hobbies will expand To fill my days with things I love to do Creatively I’ll find my promised land Artistically I’ll flourish through and through I look ahead to far horizons clear A distant ageing world that holds no fear…
An Abundance of Joy
I just love that our garden has space
To grow flowers all over the place
An abundance of things
To enjoy as it brings
A huge smile growing wide to my face
My Wish for the World for 2021
Politics needs a paradigm shift:
Wish the world could be given this gift –
Stop the lies and the hate,
Stick to civil debate,
Let compassion and love heal the rift…
No Laughing Matter
So the world watches on feeling wary
Four more years is a prospect most scary
Wake up out of your bubble
This man’s nothing but trouble
His unhinged blatant lies never vary
Where the Heart is…
Home sweet home is my space to be me
Without censure my place to feel free
In my comfy old clothes
I forget all my woes
While enjoying a nice cup of tea
Gold Digger
User
Needy, greedy
Desires, conspires, covets
Meal-ticket gold-digger
Pretends, discards, repeats
Serially, imperiously
Fake
Breathing Space
Think it’s time that my blog took a rest
Gave me breathing space, that would be best
Just a short blogging break
For my sanity’s sake
Till I’m not feeling quite so depressed…
Post It Notes
Here’s an excellent tip I should mention
If reminding someone’s your intention
Write on one coloured square
Stick it up anywhere
Post-It Notes are a brilliant invention!
