Poetry Writing poems is definitely not as easy as you think. What you need's an awful lot of runny gooey ink. That's not all, of course you know, go and ask a waiter. You can do it in the snow if you've got a piece of paper. So for today I write you this, not written in the rain. The next verse I shall have to miss, for I simply have no brain.   All Sense Nonsense As dry as the rain, As cold as the sun, As light as the shadow, As boring as fun. As green as the ocean, As blue as the grass, As clear as the mist, As first when you're last. As memories flow through my feet, through the air, through my head on the ground and my face over there. No sense makes this poem, but neither do I. So worry so softly and now say goodbye.   Princess of the Sky Sweet child we'll miss you now you're gone, Though now you're up where you belong, To watch the world from a better place, With glowing smile upon your face. So now among the angels sit, Forever with your candle lit, To watch upon our shaken world, The life of every boy and girl. And with so many other things, The lord did grant you peaceful wings, So now you move from cloud to cloud, To spread your sparkle all around. And though you did not choose to be The sweetened fairy of the sea. Small child you simply float on by As loving princess of the sky.   The Past The past is yet to come, For we cannot see the distance From the life we live today And tomorrow, then for instance, If today I write this poem And tomorrow it is read, Then today for me is past For that bit of life I've lead. But tomorrow that will be the past, So shall I live today. And what I feel shall never show, Until I live tomorrow's day. So I shall live each day the next As so to catch the past, And if it shall not come my way Then future holds a stronger mast. I know I'll see the past draw near Each day I see it fall, But someday soon ahead is past For it's the strongest one of all.   Together as one   Everyone needs someone to love. That person is sent from God above And welcomed at the other end, Firstly as a special friend. That friendship kindles in the heart, Then romance is free to start. And after chocolate, wine and flowers, Your mind releases special powers. Your heart begins to honour and trust. Feelings turn to more than lust, And as the feeling inside does grow, The love outside begins to show. So then before the Lord you stand To hold each other hand in hand, And just to see that love is done, You're watched upon as two make one.   Teddy   Teddy sits upon my chair. I just don't think that he's aware, Of just how much he means to me, He's been my friend since only three.   We used to laugh and run and play, But now I'm not at home all day, So now he sits all on his own, But he will never be alone.   I'll love him 'til we both are gone, And even then it won't be done. I know we'll always be together, Me and teddy friends forever.   Buddy   My little puppy small and sweet Likes to chew the family's feet. Eats his food with such a pace And gets his dinner round his face. He likes the garden in the sun, He leaps around and has such fun. His present toilet is the floor, But when he grows, outside is more. I'll watch him grow from small to big, Then the flowers he will dig. He'll definately be a cheeky toad, But I'll always love him loads and loads.   Joe Star   Never have I seen a mini, Not one driven like Joe Star. Joe was not the careful driver, Joe was old man Porters car.   Joe was fast as any racer, Faster than a cheetah's legs. Until one day his match was forward, The day he met a car called Megs.   They raced until their tyres burned, Until their shape could not be seen. Joe convinced that he could beat her, But Megs wiped that track course clean.   Joe Star was old Porter's car, And Megs belonged to me. But Scalextric broke that weekend I had to set my poor Megs free.   Bubbles   In a sea of uncertainty, Life passes by. Like soft fragile bubbles Floating the sky.   With delicate fashion, They float through the air. Uncertain of landing, They do not know where.   Though life is much longer, It's often been said That bubbles resemble A life that's been led.   So when you see a bubble, Don't pierce it with haste, But watch it float gently To its rightful place.   So now that a bubble And life are compared, You float through a lifetime No need to be scared.   Little Nan   There is a special someone Who I'd like to talk about. She means so very much to me, Of this there is no doubt. She's wonderful in so many ways, And has a special gift. For even when I'm feeling down, My spirits she can lift. She has a certain quality, Of this I know I'm sure. For even when I'm feeling ill This angel holds the cure. She's always watching out for me On her I can rely. For she's one who's always there, To comfort when I cry. I love her more with every day, Simply because I can. I know she'll always love me back, My wonderful little nan.   Unknown Land   In an unknown land Where noone has been, Is the most beautiful sunrise That's ever been seen.   The moon softly fading, The sun drawing close, With clouds as your guidance And ground as your host.   You walk through the meadows And flowers surround. You drink from a river That's never been found.   And still as you wander, The beauty is clear, As hillsides near echo And sunset draws near.   So as you return To your house near the sea, You open the door And are seated by me.   And finishing cocoa You sit by the fire, And dream of the place That is where you aspire.   A Piece of Special Hearts   I have a piece of something To which nothing can compare, A special place in special hearts, A place I will not share.   This place is safe and loving And was created just for me, It has alot of love to give, A love that comes for free.   Theres no need to change the way I am To earn this special place. No need to change the way I look Mine is the perfect face.   You see this very special place Belongs in special hearts, And I am always welcome And I was right from the start.   Im proud to say how much im loved By a very special pair, And proud to say no matter what I know they'll always care.   They've been around forever And of this I can be sure, That no matter what may happen They'll be around forever more.   These very special people Have a place within my heart. A place that only they can fill And so they never will depart.   I believe they're sent from heaven And I'm very proud to say, That they are my Nan and Granddad And I love them more each day.   My Day Friday   When we first met, I could not get Your picture from my mind.   Maybe because Your picture was Stuck to my window blind.   I kissed it every morning And I kissed it every night. Just the thought of seeing you Would fill me with delight.   I longed for friday, That was my day To come and visit you.   And at a chance, I'd up and dance And stick to you like glue.   Daft as a Brush!   At first you could fit in my hand, So cute and soft and white. From the sofa you were banned, For being a little shite.   You couldn't be let off the lead For fear you'd run away. But now I can't get rid of you, It seems you're here to stay.   I cannot mention the word 'walk', Or you get all excited. I have to sign, or mime, not talk, Or even have to write it!   You chase your ball under the chair To where you cannot get. And always seem so unaware You're going to the vet.   You get so filthy in the dirt, So weekly get a bath. You always shake and soak my shirt, Which makes my brother laugh!   Why is it that you have to wee Up every post and bush? The only reason I can see Is you're daft as a brush!
