White Triangle

White cotton triangle 
Placed on draped dress
 Over back  rest

Laying in wait
Imagine the form it fits upon
When the longing night is gone

Bathed in soothing warmth
Soft as petals of the rose
Think of this before eyes close.

Affliction or Blessing?

It is an affliction I suffer,  
to see only the good in people around me. 
Does it make me sick?

Or is it a (mixed) blessing I behold?  
to see only the good in people around me.
 It stifles the crap that ruins my fragile mind!

Product Appeal

Mine is for niche, not wide market promotion
And only some have opted to' buy the full version'

The parts are functioning and well organised
But I, forever  scrutinise

If I am not happy with my wares
Who is going to want to buy shares?

Pink or Blue?

She asked
Do you want a drink?
I said yes I do I think....
How much do I owe
She said don't  be silly,
 Here you go

She asked
So, do you like pink?
I had to stop and think
I said No I prefer blue
But I appreciate the view,
And thank-you

Turning off the flame

I left you simmering, surface Undulation
Mustn't boil over, refrain
A 'burn in hell' type revelation
My conscience turned off the flame

How could something barely amalgamated
Meal uneaten, Luke warm
Leave my heart this strangulated
Aching, throbbing, torn.

Catch A Poem

If you cast and catch a poem
Set it free, enjoy it flowing
Stretch it, streamlined in the brine
Either with or without rhyme

Your tide will take it, foot off the throttle
Unroll the message In the bottle
Save it, swim it back to shore
Share it here, then write some more!

A Quiet Side Street

A quiet side street
I guide your feet

'This is not the way'
You playfully say

Your hands on my waist
I steel a taste

My hand on your hip
I bite your lip

I wish it to last
It's over too fast

You kiss me again 
As I leave for my train

lets wait and see
If you want more of me!

Grow a happy tree

Good friend, take my hand, come with me
I planted you a happy tree
Please water it with hope and love
And it will grow the ground above
I'll care for it when you are weak
And help you find the life you seek!
And so you don't loose sight of your dream
I thought I'd make it evergreen!

Ruby Ruby Honeytip

Ruby Ruby Honeytip
Heavens what a title
You' d see how fitting is the name
At her poetry recital

What a gem, what a sweet treat
Ruby Honey tip
A read may find your buttons torn
And heading for your zip

Ruby Ruby Honeytip
I'm obviously a fan
Comes highly recommended
Go read her if you can!

Mind Over Matter

Mind over matter
What's the matter?
It's your assumption
Be responsible for it

If the matter doesn't mind
That's because why should it?
Your mind put it there.
It only really matters to you.

Mind over matter
Mental strength
With this matter in mind
I need to work out
So I am less vulnerable
