Month: October 2022

Poems for the eye,
and song lyrics for the ear;
both touch heart and mind.

The rain gently falls,
and with it comes Autumn leaves,
falling from the trees.

Am I a winner?
Sometimes I like to think so,
and sometimes I am.

I count the sunsets,
and the sun rise every dawn;
they keep time so well.

I woke up early,
or so I thought, then I found,
the clocks had gone back.

This morning was fun,
as I did get something done,
and closed a chapter.

The light is so bright,
and I close my eyes, then squint;
silhouettes approach.

There is much to do,
and if I don’t do something,
I can’t do it well.

I’ve lost track of time,
the thief of time, time itself,
that stole much from me.

I struggled today,
to wake up and start my day,
and I took my time.

There is much to do,
and if I don’t do something,
I can’t do it well.

The night fell silent,
and darkness covered the land,
and it was quiet.

The moon waves goodbye,
with a fine waning crescent,
but the clouds hide it.

The moon disappears,
just for a day, then returns,
on its other side.

Some friends come and go,
and some stick like a brother;
some you never meet.

Sunday slips away,
and the plans are halfway done,
but gave way to fun.

My chapter seven,
held me back said, “Look at me,
don’t leave me like this!”

I woke at seven,
and I crashed into morning,
dazed, I staggered out.

Reading newspapers,
and battling through the broad sheets,
to find the crossword.

Sleep over took him,
suspending reality,
with dreamlike fiction.

A rainy Sunday,
in the sky, lightning flashes,
and thunder rumbles.

I found an old draft,
and read it with interest,
noting some good parts.

Reading the gravestones,
and some can tell a story,
here at Kensal Green.

Crunchy nut corn flakes,
with cold milk and a teaspoon,
and good anytime.
