The Famine

The famine’s wind has surely blown,
The rabbit looks for carrots sown,
Nothing nothing nothings grown.
The rabbit pauses with paw on cheek,
“This dismal scene inspires me not,
I think I’ll sleep
An’ let the brook babble on,
An’ in my dreams may hunger,
Be be gone.
Sadly in his sleep the rabbit dies
Then consumed by relentless flies.
The sheep dropp in their tracks
The cows are long since gone
The farmer pulls in his belt and
Hopes it’s not in vain
As he waits and waits and waits
And waits
For Rain

Owen a new Teenager

On your path of life in teenage years
Your parents guide you through your strength and fears,
You’ve shown yourself to try your best
To give your best in any test.

Enjoy your teenage years have lots of fun
Let the spirit of dreams fire your run,
Nan’n’Pop love you heaps, even if you achieve great fame
We’ll still love the rest of the tribe just the same.

Just keep going on as you are
‘Cos you really are a little star,
Never give up dreams from the soul
For at the end of the rainbow...there’s your goal.

And no matter what you do
Jesus will watch over you

Why I Love You

Why I love you, because you are you!
You just you, is that all they ask?
Well there's more because inside her that's where love is kindled
Where hate is dwindled,
Where wine doth flow when dinner is served
Warm fires within producing love preserved,
Woman of this world are the planners of the nest
You rise with love a star above the rest.
Love exudes in everything you do
You are love; you're made of love its true,
Love love love love you spread it around
Your children, neighbours friends love abounds.
Deep from your heart it must start from above
You I surely and truly do love.

When My Love

When the sun is a burnt out star,
when the moon is no longer the moon,
when near is as near as afar
when snow flakes fail to flake
when rain no longer rains,
when bee’s no longer have wings,
when the Robin never sings,
when diamonds shatter like glass,
when fields have no green grass,
when Chopin’s etudes no longer sooth senses,
when all races live as one with no fences
when the eagle fails to soar high in the sky.
when a baby can no longer cry,
when a mother can turn a blind eye,
when magic turns black days to blue,

Then, and only then
will i stop loving you,
if i can.

Dancing in Flowers

You're dancing in flowers this lover's fair
I'm stepping on clouds floating on air,
Swinging on stars dreaming on cue
Sliding down rainbows nearer to you,

You hide behind daisies with buttercup class
Still peeking the locks of a golden haired lass,
A bunny falls back as you quickly dance by
As I float down from the super blue sky.

Ah, I see you soft an' so still in a beautiful pose
Smiling hiding in the folds of a rose,
For a kiss indeed I miss thorns so scary,
Inside the rose it's ll in a day's work for the love
......................................... ....................
of a fairy.

Lay Your Body Close to Mine

Lay your body close to mine
Let me hold you firmly tight,
Lay your head on my shoulder
Cry your tears inside my heart,
I’ll dry them with my love
An’ change them into smiles.
I lost that game of love
An’ just quietly stepped aside,
I knew that guy would do you wrong
What he said was just old lies,
Could feel and see it
In those dark conniving eyes.
Anger is an honest emotion
Let your feelings flow,
I love you; just want you to be happy.
If ever you see me in another light
I’ll be there for you baby,
Shining diamond bright,
Close your eyes now darling
No more tears in the night.

Roses For You

Like a caged bird, rooted still by thorny briar
To kiss the very centre of pleasure’s fire,
The queen of beauty unfolds to caress mine eyes
Tis nature’s flaming red wonder that never dies,

Nay you live joyous in many a fair maidens cheek
As now my joy on the happiness plane doth peak,
So my beauty pieces of thee I snip oh rosy queen
For my love will know to the rose garden I’ve been.

My wages handsomely paid by your golden smile
A kiss then joy as you pose and enhance the posies
Red roses, yellow and white by a mile beguile
An’ life is I hope coming up as...for everything’s roses

I Just Can’t Get Enough Of You

The white of fresh glistening snow
Copies your soft silken skin aglow,
Mirrored reflection of your eyes
Blaze the blue afternoon skies
Your body’s aurora’s magnetic chain
Calming holds me firmly in lover’s lane
Like a fresh blueberry honey ice-cream
I want to suck you, lick you, eat you clean,
I just can’t get enough of you'
The creative mind of the Mona Lisa
Copied your face for beauty’s teaser,
Like a drunken prince with no balance
On the highwire of love I fell no chance,
Of the billions of souls of this earth that dwell
Heaven sent me you, thankyou
Oh God I think your swell.

Love A Duck

Mammy duck leaves the bank,
Baby ducks follow plop plop,
Daddy duck rear guard
Safe from the predators.
Sadly the little ones are
Easy pickings for the eels,
Grow little ones grow very fast,
Then you will be too big for the eels grasp.
Black swans arrive with six white little ones
At the spot where they all look for crumbs,
My poodle Beau goes close for a sniff
A black flying swan flies out, whoosh goes biff.
Beau scurries off with a really loud yelp
To run in between my legs for human help,
No more going near baby swans with daddy around
He will stick to spraying trees it’s safer he’s found.

I Know What You’ve Been Doing’

Nanna’s charge little Shirley all but four
Grabbed the chocolate and closed the door,
On her face round her mouth, sticky dress
Melted chocolate what a mess!

Grandma came in to such a shock
Wishing she’d kept it under lock.
“Never never eat so much of this treat,
Your stomach will balloon till you float down the street, ”

Cleaned and tidy they both went off to catch the bus,
Alighting Shirley said, ‘Sit here just the two of us”
A heavily pregnant lady passed as though something was brewing.
Tiny Shirley stood up shouting ‘ I know what You’ve been doing’

NB. Eating lots of chocks?
