Ashamed of running outside and riding a bike

Afraid I wont be liked

The Rainbow door

Silence at the graveyard

Flowers and teardrops

Colours and treetops

The rabbit’s hop

The Angel’s watch

Save me save me

Crave me crave me

Fav me fav me

Do not wave goodbye

Raining,water tapping the window

But luckily I feel warm

Peacefully till dawn

At school watching peers kissing in the hall

Looking around for the perfect face

Hiding under sunglasses

Waiting for a taste

Obviously dumb or silly things,so much the better

How far do your tears travel?

Down you face?

A stream?

The ocean?

The honey of the book

The epiphany is magic

As sensitive as I can be

I hold a butterfly

Rhyme is an echo

A perfect room

Attracts new world tourists like a magnet

Love

If I light up some fireworks

Will you know how to find me?

If I light a candle

Can I lead you home?

I can’t see any stars and I feel alone

Can I excite you and write a song?

Can I meet you at sunset

Hold both of your hands and face you perfect

How long am I going to be at sea?

I dream of dolphins swimming with me

Maybe I should lay down

With the starfish on the sea floor

Or find a ship wreck

When the breeze comes through the leaves like

Lots of diamond studs

Birthday Poem

Birthday Poem

Here is a poem so keep the drinks flowing

A little whisky glowing!

I want you to have the best birthday

In one year’s time you’ll be thirty!

I hope you get lots of pressies

Have a break from M’cy D’s stresses!

I hope the sun comes out

So you can sit outside with a can of stout!

Brother,brother

I hope there’s no cloud cover

You work so hard

A committed runner

Sometimes you bug me

Sometimes you hug me

But I don’t know anyone else so funny

Simple as a first kiss

A persistent twinkle

Beats any wrinkle

A best belly dream

Everyday

Where petals fall

The marital bed

Festival goer

I want to wear a fake flower crown

Everyone’s twirling at the funfair

The carousel

The Waltzers

Love is in the air

The sweet jar

Playing racing car

Hands up to the stars

And the milky bar

Do you think my Barbie

Will come alive?

Will my prince ever arrive?

Can I have a dolly?

Can I have a lolly?

Can I have a go-kart?

Can I draw some wall art?

Love is always

Love is ablazed

Love is amazed

Love is New York in May

Love is the sun’s red glaze

Love is stargazed

He brushed is hand up my thighs

Until he heard my cries

He picked me up put me on the bed

And poured the ocean into my eyes

He sucked my breasts,licked my nipples

Sent me a thousand ripples

He held my waist like a double bass

Spung me round he dance floor

He licked me into wet peaches

I laid back and thought of beaches

Running away in my sleep

Hoping that we will meet

The Light Bulb

The electric light

The moment

The light bulb was invented

I would have loved to have been there,

When the darkness ended

I would like to thank Thomas Edison for disco lights!

For the light on my bike

For the torch I shine in my room at night

I thankyou for the illuminations and  street lamps

How did he create that spark?

I can read my book with the side light

I can find my key with a keyring light

I can watch the ocean from a lighthouse

I can watch the pretty city above

I can see where I’m going in a car at night

Thankyou Thomas Edison for traffic lights!

Thankyou for mobile phone lights

Especially at a concert,all beautiful and bright

Thankyou for the spotlight and Hollywood

Thankyou for the theatre and making us look good!

Thankyou for helping us search for people

Who are lost in the woods or out at sea

The fridge light so we can eat –at midnight

The camera light

Lights,camera action

The humble light bulb

A festive orange

A festive smile
