They Foated Along The Water
They floated along the water, filling the lake with glee Some were white some were grey but were ever so gay. Now and again they would dive for fish, hoping it was the dish of the day. When winter came, they would fly south to warmer climes, taking their cares away When winter was over, … Continue reading They Foated Along The Water
They laughed And Cried
They laughed and they cried but nobody died, not on the night they were there. They were there so long, nobody was wrong or had the right to stare But with the glare of the light, it must have been a glorious sight. So whatever happened that night no one really had a care.
There Was never A Time
There was never a time or a place to say I was part of the human race. Walking away from everything I knew Didn't have time to think things through, but now here I am, waiting for the end. Never wanting to look further than I could see, but leaving behind the likes of you … Continue reading There Was never A Time
There Was No One At home
There was no one at home - no one at all - no one to come near No one to call me dear, or to say my name. Was life becoming in vain? Or was there hope? Any chance at all that someone would call? But What would be the point if no one was … Continue reading There Was No One At home
Tribute To Freddie
He was the showman of them all. He was The Seven
Seas of Rhye – the man who could not die, even if he
Wanted to try. He was good at living on his own. He
Was in a band who should have been on the throne.
He was just a poor boy from a poor family. He died so
Young, but who could forget him? Had the surname
of a planet – not Jupiter, Mars or Venus, but Mercury,
But we knew him as Freddie – the lead singer of
Queen. It was so sad that he was not around for
Long, but boy, who could forget his songs?
Freddie, we hope you are resting in peace. Your
Songs will not be forgotten at least. You are the
Champion, my friend, and you’ll be remembered
Till the end.
Just Another Pretty Face
Just another pretty face, leaving me to wish she would go away and not return another day. With beauty so deep, which is keeping me from sleep. Why does she have to be my heart's desire? I just want a quiet life with little strife, but she is always there looking so fair. I don't … Continue reading Just Another Pretty Face
What Is There To Know
What is there to know? What is there to show? Only time will tell if it stops you from going to hell, or to a place that no one can see, including you and me or anyone of no concern, even if they are looking for somewhere to stop - a place that will not … Continue reading What Is There To Know
For Sorrow, There Is No Tomorrow
For sorrow, there is no tomorrow; for
Pain there is no escape. For each day
That hurts, there is no reasoning; no
Answers, not even the truth.
For each day that comes, for each day
That stays, there is never an end. Only
The truth will tell.
The truth that lasts forever; seeking
Out the lies – the wherefores, the anger
And pain; in this life that we will remain,
Never to darken; to hurry away, only
Then come-what-will-may.
It Tried To Rain Today
It tried to rain today but never came our way, Maybe tomorrow when there is plenty of sorrow - Monday - not a day to like; wish some- one would tell it to take a hike and never come back again. Unlike a Sunday which can be described as a fun day - one to … Continue reading It Tried To Rain Today
