ShakeDown
*whisper*
I don’t really know
What a shakedown is
Or where I’d go
To get one
Is it something you buy
Or something to try
Do you see it
Reveal it
Or feel it
Drink it or think it
Do you do it
Or have it done
Or is life better
Without one

Unfound
She would dearly love
Something she has yet to find
A toolkit for life

Dominoes
An afternoon game of dominoes
A hand in hand evening stroll
By the still, mirror-like sea
Gently tending to each other’s needs
Thro’ decades of their shared history
Love still shining brightly
As they approach their nineties

Pondering
Pondering on
A perfect world
All metaphorical
Blue skies and sunshine
Everyone always
Getting along
Then
Realisation-
We may need
An irritant
A little pain
Something about which
To always complain
After all
You need the grit
To make the pearl

Holiday Chat
You’re all I ever need
He said
I just want you
And our love
So when going
Away for a short
Holiday
How come he needed
His ipad, his ipod
His phone and his Kindle
Was addicted to
Snapchat,
WhatsApp,
And Twitter
The one person
He wouldn’t
Sit down and chat to
….was her

Paper Heart
Write your name
On my paper heart
Newspaper boats on a lake
Fake news
My paper heart breaks

Part of Something
On a day like today
With no energy to call on
I feel lacklustre, suppressed and alone.
“No purpose, no point, no value” I moan
But….
On a dark starlit night
I’m part of something much more
So monumental it’s hard to imagine
I feel connected, excited, in awe.
Please let it be starry tonight!

Royal Wedding Toast
Watching all alone
Under her fascinator
Shedding happy tears
She toasts the couple
With endless cups of hot tea
Warm scones jam and cream

Blink
Lives begin
Lives end
Lives change forever
In the blink
Of a butterfly’s wing

Family
If you met your family
Far from home
And didn’t already know them
Do you think
You’d like them enough
To ask them out for a drink?

Chocolate and TV
Here am I missing out again
Trying to pretend I’m not in pain
Hiding it under the chocs and tv
As my love sings for others,
Not me

Kitten
The bewildered kitten frantically
Searched through YouTube for some
Attainable role models
