The Lacy waves

‘The lacy waves’-John Heath-Stubbs

A shy woodland flower approaching the bar

The white swan makes a fine picture

The Bible has fine scripture

Red snow fruits

Remind me of Christmas

No responsive hearts

I feel alone

Victory of giving

I love Christmas

Spirit strong

I need him spirit strong

The great shining light as they say

Green velvet lawn

And the weather is even brighter tomorrow

Peace and prayer

‘Be still and know that I am God’-Psalm 46J

Friendship

A treasure to keep

Not a tear on the cheek

 Book Idea:

 A spaceship is landing in the garden

All the animals are watching

‘What is it’?

The hummingbird says,

Maybe it’s another hummingbird!

Frog says,

Maybe it’s house of flies!

Spider says,

Yes a palace full of juicy flies!

Bird says,

Maybe it’s a new bird house!

Squirrel says,

With lots of nuts to feed on!

Rabbit says,

No,I think it’s a carrot,a giant carrot!

You can see the flames!

Ladybird and butterfly say,

Let’s fly to the top of the tree and have a closer look’

The spaceship approaches the tree and then disappears

‘Where did it go’?said the ladybird

‘I don’t know’said the butterfly

The worm says,

I’ll have a look,it’s hidden in the tree!

Did you know the tree was hollow?

‘No’ said everyone

Flower says,

Isn’t that where the fairies live?

I wonder if there’s a fairy door?

Deer says,

‘I think there might be’!

Mouse says,

Let’s look for the front door and I’ll knock on it!

Hedgehog says,

If anything threatens us I can use my spikes!

Ant says,

Yes and we can form an army there’s thousands of us!

There it was,a little hut

The bees and the wasps started buzzing away just in case there was danger

Then a pixie put her eye in the middle of the hole in the door and said,

‘Who is it’?Why aren’t you guarding the door’?

Snails say,

‘Sorry Miss Pixie ,there’s been a UFO!

It has landed in your home.

It looks like a big light from the sky’

Pixie says,

What like the lights the humans use to find Badger and Fox?

Snail says,

‘No,like a hundred fireflies carrying something!’

‘Can you smell smoke’?

Everyone goes silent

Suddenly the green leaves appear to be walking!

Everyone gathers round,

‘Maybe we should offer them a drink said the fish in the pond!

Children’s song

We put our hands up to the sky

Try to catch a butterfly

We put our hands into the mud

Build a go-kart made of wood

We have a bath in some suds

Splash around with little ducks!!!

Train Poem

In between the mountains

Across the meadow

We looked outside our cabins

Bravo,God Bravo

We went past the lavender fields

Believing that time heals

We looked at the sunset,eating a cornet

And listened to the wheels,

The rhythm of the wheels

It was such a long journey

What was my destiny?

I rested my head on the window

And dreamed of the beach

The train went high and low

I could feel the sand in my feet

The air was hot as I took in the view

I watched the birds making shapes in a group

Look mum,

It’s the world!!!

The train stopped at the station

I was ready for exploration

I hated carrying my case,looking out for mothers face,

Trying not to step on my shoelace

I wondered,how many countries could you go to on the train?

How many sweets could you eat on the way?

Can a train ride over a rainbow?

I kept my ticket safe

I kept my faith

The Piano Shop

I want to learn some pop

Go up stairs to the piano shop

I want to touch the keys

Buzz around like busy bees

As I sit at the piano

I feel so miniature

My legs are dangling off my seat

I am listening for a bounding beat

Maybe I could be a young Mozart

Write something that glows your heart

Maybe I could play in the clouds

Or play to lot’s of crowds

Food togetherness

Idea Visual

Long grass with sequins

Italian charm

Gelato song

Drinkability!

The character of Christmas!

Emotions……..Poems

My little peachcream

Make-up

She wore make-up

She had been through a break-up

She had been through a pay-cut

But she always wore make-up

Eyes as bright as a thousand lamps

Eyes as bright as a thousand lanterns

Cheeks covered in the colour of raspberry jam

To attract a man and little lamb

Lips shimmering pink

Hair in a kink

Even her freckles made you think

Hot nights of obsession

‘Hot nights of obsession’-Ben Ashwell

Grief notes

Honouring the sunshine

A bloom of luck

I wish I was an Angel

No sins flooding my heart

A colourful rainbow

That makes my eyes spark

I have wounded wings

A train went shooting past

Everyone gasped

A space rocket blast

Everyone gasped

A thunderstorm

Everyone ran inside fast!

A bee flew outside the classroom

Everyone ran inside fast!

I dream of going on a train

Being part of a golden chain

I don’t want weight gain

Feel insane

Or be looking for a vein

Tears travelling all over the world

Putting your hair in a curl

Putting you in a whirl

To look good

Reach my peak

Happy in the heat

Smitten

I want to feel smitten

A note about love

I write with a feather plucked from a dove

I write from my soul

I can’t get enough

It’s from the shooting stars above

I put some gold in your bottle

To make you feel lucky

Please give me your love and

Make me feel like a catch

The colour of dawn

Get up and enjoy

Wave of love

Little feet having a paddle

A donkey ride with one foot in the saddle

That walk to the ice cream van

Tip-toeing on hot sand

Children are beautiful

The sing,they dance,say hello to strangers

You would die to protect them from danger

Watching the emotion

Love is a clear sky

Makes you feel like you can fly

Makes you feel like you could swim the highest tide

Love is a red breast

Makes you feel you are the best

A welcome guest

Love is sharing sweets

Giving away the last seat

Fanning someone in the heat

Love is a tattoo

It stays with you

Love is a stream with stepping stones

The sensation of water splashing on your ankles

Dancing like a ribbon

Twirling away

The flowergirl scattered petals

In the sun’s ray

A class outside on the grass!

Cocoa money

I want Nan in joy always

He looks like tomato soup hmmm!!

I wake up alone everyday

God,why do have to pay?

How many prayers do I have to say?

How many traps are you going to lay?

Alone and totally numb

Everyday I wish I was taller

Everyday I wonder am I bi-polar?

Is it ok to drink diet cola?

Riding in your car

I saw the stars

Riding in the front seat

I felt the beat

Riding for 100 miles

I gave you 1000 smiles

Riding up the hill

You put on the heat

To stop the chill

Sleeping in your bed

Magic turned my head

Sleeping in your arms

My whole body warmed with sweaty palms

Sleeping on the pillow like

Sleeping on layers of filo

Sleeping on some petals

You sent me calm and settled

The central heating is beating

Just want to cry

The water is just too high

Or is it a closing fire?

Am I drowning in a mud slide?

Falling from a plane?

I can’t see for all the clouds

I pray for no more pain

The pen goes round and round for inspiration

Waiting for activation

‘My diet activation’!!!

I need an ocean of your love

A milky way love

Idea for website:Talkingfood.co.uk

A token of your love

Would make my heart bud

Let’s set the mood

Light the candles

Check the food

Put on some lipstick and red rouge

Spray on some perfume

You cannot lose!

Let’s pretend we are on a cruise

Or on a beach,you can choose

You could me my muse

If I only had a brain

I was riding along on your train

I boarded to get away from the rain

Holding on to my locket’s chain

I was travelling

But

You choose to ignore me

You choose to pour me away

God is

God is a shield around me

God is a field of freshly cut grass

God is a healing wound

God is an open bloom

It’s a scorcher!

I wish there was a beach around the corner!

Ordering sweet and sour

I can already taste it in my mouth!

I wonder if I go on the trampoline,

My belly will bounce!

No path into the garden

Bleeding Mountain

A beautiful mess

Always know there is

A glow worm near

Hide and seek and playfulness

Glittering spy and a lover of the meadow

Genuine sadness MCR

Words that are the sweetest of the year

(Writing competitions)

Twilight lake

Looking at our garden pond

Lights on oriental streets

China town

Glitter of the blade (ice skating)

True love

Shooting star

How many miles are we apart?

How many beats of my heart?

Wishing well

Will I get his kiss?

Will he make me feel fearless?

Magpies

Two for joy

I’ve made a nest

Please don’t destroy

Summer that like whole strawberries

The old library

My eyes all sunny and bright

The books all dusty

With a smell that delights

Can you be charmed by a book?

I think so,that little smile

Someone reading the paper

Ignoring all the book haters

Evening yellow and a tan

I want to give you a flower

You are my sweetest tower

Cleaning and dreaming

Ice cream and the sun’s beam

Holiday hot and steaming!

The breeze and novelty t’s

Walking around in pretty weaves

Birdsong,getting along

Writers block

Let’s go for a walk on Preston’s dock

Watch the water and throw in some rocks

Watch the ripples and imagine their touch

Sit outside the pub with a bottle of wine

And forget the time

Maybe you’ll think of a rhyme!

Feel the sun,how it shines upon the water

And forget the noise

Count the ducklings,their little legs

And cute little heads!

The day

The day I fell was like the taste of caramel!

The day that I loved was like the taste of chocolate pud!

The day that I kissed was like the taste of wine and fizz!

The day that I sang was like the taste of crumbled ham!

The day that I danced was like the taste of bread in France!

The day that I got fixed was like the taste of grownup chicks!

The day that I got fixed was like the taste of Weetobix!

I’m a pud in a mug!

It’s all patchwork

The sound of a plane above

I smile

The smell of a beautiful bud

I smile

The taste of sweet and sour

I smile

The sight of a New York tower

I smile

No kisses

No kisses,no love

No wishes,no fun

Scared of rides

I panick and cry

If it feels too high

I want to die

Scared of insects

I am a princess

Scared of cruelty and convicts

And drugs and conflict

Just want a job,

Even if it’s minion wage

Food

Going straight to the kitchen

Need to do some ditchin!

Need someone to do some fixin!

Pixie ears

It’s been years and years

Struggling for funny

I wish the sky was sunny

Struggling for money

I wish I had a flat tummy

Whispering headstones

Love,dancing let’s beat depression

So your secret it………

Binge eating?

Air-brushed tweeting?

Binge drinking?

Lazy cleaning?

Too much sleeping?

Hair and make-up faking?

Hands shaking?

A victim of raping?

Or plastic surgery mis-shaping?

Your pregnant?

You don’t know who the father is?

You do know who the father is?

You want to starve yourself?

You are starving yourself?

You want to harm yourself?

You are harming yourself?

Are you being bullied?

Do you use too much salt?

Do you eat too much chocolate?

Did you knock over an expensive ornament?

Lose some jewellery on the beach?

Did you not listen at school?

Are you impossible to teach?

Did you copy someone’s homework?

Did you not turn up at church?

Did you break someone’s heart?

Did you steal an idea?

Did you accidently fart?!

Did you cook something wrong?

Are you hoping they don’t cotton on?!

Did you receive an unwanted gift?

Did you forget to leave a tip?

You can’t zip up your pants anymore?

Sometimes you wish you had the hand of the law?

Your face is full of blocked-pores?

Is it what you weigh?

Is it that you don’t pray?

Is it that you don’t have friends?

Or have you lost your job?

Do you spend your whole life crying

And afraid of being alone?

Your guilty of a crime?

Your going deaf or blind?

Your scared of the camera?

You wish you had more stamina?

Is it that you don’t have friends because you eat?

You’ve bought some sweets when you are on a diet?

You have voices in your head that won’t be quiet?

You have on old underwear?

Your outfit has a little tear?

You’ve forgotten to shave?Under your arms?

You’re a little sweaty and your clothes are all marked?

There’s food all over your face?

You’ve dropped food all over the floor?!

You have stretch marks all over the place

It’s the mirror you can’t face

Your car looks like a tip

You need to go to the shop for Airwick!

Is your biggest secret,you are terminally ill?

Is your biggest secret that you are dying and unhappy?

Is your biggest secret you are suffering in a relationship,

Suffering from rejection?

Did your parents leave you as a child?

Did your parents hit you?

Did you hide under the stairs?

Are you haunted?

Do you have your own poltergeist?

Are you longing for a child?

Are you longing for a child’s health?

Are you feeling suicidal?

Do you want to reach for the Bible?

Do you feel like a good person?

Do you long for someone to learn from?

Peace on Earth

Peace on Earth

Peace in our hearts

Brave enough to star

The Cake Scene

The trolly came out

The desserts looked like heaven

Strawberry Victoria Sponge,

Chocolate Fudge Cake and

Clotted cream with rhubarb pie,

Children looking wide-eyed

Did I mention ice cream Sundaes bigger than your head in a tall glass

Fit for a King or Queen

Parents drinking wine and then caffeine

Sharing a look of the big screen

Children jumping up and down like jellybeans

Choosing what to have

The Bake Scene

I have my bowl and spoon for

Macaroons and peppermint moons

I have no experience but I want to give them as presents

  

I’m wearing my hat and a apron

And lot’s of flour on my face

I’m also sneaking a little taste!

Is the oven hot enough?

Is the timer set?

Mum,I really want them to be perfect

The Cupcake

Welcome to the cupcake,twirl me round and round

Look at my crown!

Love and swirling leaves

You are in my dreams

To go toe dipping in nearby streams

Or build a house in the trees

I want to hold hands and cross lands

I want to kiss every minute

There is no limit

How many of my tears are joining the sea?

I want to escape Earth to see her beauty again

‘Eating demons’

Demons like bats flying round in my head

Losing the will to live

I just want to look down from the clouds and smile

Just want it to stop

Still feel shocked

How long can you possibly talk?

My lips have been sewn up

I cannot open up

My hearts been put on hold

But there’s a story to be told

I really need some luck

I want to write a hook

And finish my first book

I’m looking at the sky

Wishing I had a big thick purple carpet to fly

I’m looking at the sea

Hoping for a big giant seahorse to carry me

I’m looking at the hills

For a secret place where everything is still

My greatest fear is being ‘the only one’

I cry all the time

But my heart beats to the chime

My church journey

The good one

Home and a smiling gnome

Stars are cold

Everyone is cold

So believe me

So believe me

I would’nt lie

So believe me

There’s no reason why

So evil I want to say goodbye

So evil I’m gonna dry my eyes

God why,why

Did you send a demon?

Did you send a beeman?

I sit by the phone for you alone

A simple wish no-one snobbish

‘The genius of the sea’-Wallace Stevens

The sea

A deepening and enchanting sea

How ugly fear is

Carries an instrument,instantly remembered

Kissing pebbles,make me lucky

The fragrance of cooking

Everytime I pass your house!

‘A pearl of God’-James K.Baxter

Are you in the kingdom?

‘To a coast of light’-Robert Gray

‘Kisses that are the highest kind of communication’-Gavin Ewart

A faded photograph

A distant smile

Evils of cholesterol

Bacon butties with your best buddies

An Angel in a painting

On lookers fainting

Raspberry sweet hands from a jam tart!

The friendly tree

Keeps you dry

Keeps the sun from hitting our eyes

The waves of my love

Children running on the beach

Children silent as cones

‘Weaves of sunlight in your hair’-T.S.Eliot
