Welcome to a collection of mainly longer length Poetry, with a few MicroPoems.
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

River of Life/Buying Time
She’s going to:
Try to float
Along the river of life
Rather than:
Resist every twist
Avoid every turn
And try to stem the flow
He’s fighting so hard
Against the onslaught of time
It is his daily obsession
With Botox and wheatgrass
The gym
Which he hates with a passion
Trying to buy time on credit
She wonders why
When he rarely enjoys
The time he’s actually been given

Lines
Are the lines drawn
In the same sand
As the sand that has
The flags in
Do the lines in
Our faces
Show how much
We’ve laughed
And how often
We’ve sinned
The lines that
We’ve crossed
The loved ones
We’ve lost
And the worries
Of living each day
We have crossed lines
And lay lines
Battle lines, deadlines
And lines that we say,
Like a habit,
Day after day
The lines of a song
That stay with
Us forever
Even if we
Misheard them
And sing them
All wrong
The lines of a poem
That once touched
Your soul
That now you find
You can’t
Quite recall
But the feeling
They gave you
Lives on and on

Onslaught
Yesterday
Onslaught
5 types of vertigo
Came my way
Sat on a bench
A break in a walk
My bum started sliding
Body rocking
Back and forth
Vision was dodgy
My feet going thro’ the ground
When my eyes closed tight
I could’ve passed out
Yet I really wasn’t moving at all
I am rarely fine
But 5 at a time
What was that all about?
