Contenders
Cruising the town
In bruised
Tattered cars
Music so loud
Bass so low
Top floor windows
Vibrate
Are they song birds
Singing for a mate
Or contenders
For urban king
Hinting at their size
Fickle Winds of Fate
Fickle winds of fate
Blowing us like tumbleweed
Along life’s highways

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

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
