Music for a better day

Music for a better day

The coloured fires of this world

‘The golden flutes of the sunbeams’-Anon

The jasmine of the skies

Lots of summer brides

It is love filled with sun

Meet me under the blossom tree

We could kiss all day

At 100 degrees!

Mealtime magic

I see the moon

I see the stars

Why can’t I find you at the bar?

Rockbeat of my heart

I’ll give you the drumming part

Paint me like beautiful art

Help me make a new start

Spirit of my soul

Your music breaks my fall

It’s like I’ve scored a goal and after

It’s you I want to hold

I’m standing in the tower

Smelling all the flowers

I don’t want to be a coward

I want to be empowered

But,so far away,the birds will be flying

If you lie to me

Sonnet Ironic

When you think of the words after they have gone!

You go away on holiday and the weather is hot at home!

You have lots of friends online

But you are alone

Feel like crying

No-ones hiring

No-ones desiring

Everything feels so tiring

Destined for loneliness?

Playing games James?

Aflame

England are flying and shining!

Feels like glass

I don’t want to finish last

Or live in the crawling past

And this daily blast

The sacred sing

It’s all in the wording

Gardens and all the stars above

Stars that show me the way

New and flaming songs in the charts

Old eternal embroideries

A guardian and guide

She dreamed

‘He seized her waist’

Wonderous nakedness

Unexpectedness

The water of love

A sacred ballade

Breathing in rhythm

In a beautiful prism

Reality and magic

Your throbbing chords

This is a reward

With love’s touch

With music and such

Make me brave as I bathe

Thinking about those building waves

England singing,kindling

Friend and dens

Paper and pens

Sitting under the duvet in the shed

With our dollies and ted’s!

I suffer Wish I was tougher

He talks,he talks

And I have no lover

Be my friend

Get me on the mend

Be my friend

Put your ears on lend

Be my friend

Kisses and send

Wise beyond your eyes

You make everyone stand and rise

Every Angel flies

Every Demon dies

No-one cries or says goodbyes

They know the truth

They don’t tell lies

Love is in the skies

Foolish beyond your heart

I want to get you in my court

Play like Mozart

Could you take me on a boat?

Prayer

A good heart

No-one to call

No-one at all

They are so cold

He’e my season,my reason

I hate that he’s leaving

When I am with him

I’m breathing,believing

The barefoot joy of the sound

The barefoot joy of the sound

The true magnetic North

Overwhelming storm

I need to stay warm

Blossom better

In a magical haze

The spirits bloomed

What if I told you

What if I told you

I want to behold you

I want to enfold in you

Find the sun with you

But I find you so cold

You don’t want me to call

Because my tummy rolled?

Because someone else was in your soul?

You know,I still fall

Like school kids in the hall

Like scoring a goal

A song from Billy Joel

Or reaching the North Pole

A gave you all

I burned in the coal

You took down my wall

Picked me up when I crawled

The Anniversary

It’s killing me

Grandad died 31 years ago

But he loved to tell a story

He made me unafraid of the dark

Lifted me on the swings at the park

He bought me pic and mix sweets

Carried me when I had tired feet

He gave me a sailors cap

Taught me how to hold a rounders bat

He saved me from a big spider

Watched me sing in a choir

He waited at the bottom to catch me on the slide

He pointed to the stars in the sky

On the way home I looked at the moon

It made me think of a floating balloon

When we went to the beach we ran on sand dunes

And if we ever fell,he would kiss our wounds

We once took a trip to the funfair

And we smiled as we left with teddybear

He held my hand on the ghost train

Put my hood up when it began to rain

When we went for an ice cream,it towered

Above us and our eyes gleamed

Grandad used to tickle us and sang

‘Wheels on the bus’ if we were afraid

He gave us a good push

He once bought me a ‘Jack in the box’,he told me

The story of Goldilocks

When we went on holiday he told me to look out for a deer or a fox

And got out his pocket-watch

I saw myself in the mirror

I must walk home after that dinner!

I saw myself in the mirror

I really want to look like a winner!

I saw myself in the mirror

I must slim down for that holiday villa!

I saw myself in the mirror

I refuse to have those botox fillers!

I saw myself in the mirror

And thought

I need to be as strong as a pillar!

I’m with you in hospital

When they are taking your bloods

I’m with you in hospital

When you escape in the woods

I’m with you in hospital

When they give you your meds

I’m with you in hospital

When your crying in bed

I’m with you in hospital

At those stupid reviews

I’m with you in hospital

At the canteen ques

I’m with you in hospital

When the voices won’t stop

I’m with you in hospital

When you dream it is robots

I’m with you in hospital

Everytime you go to sleep

I’m with you in hospital

Here are some sweets!

A box of fireworks

A box of fireworks?

The demon sweet drawer

I feel sick

I can’t do this anymore

The result?

He started when I was a child and now

I am an adult

I will not be in a cult

I’m fat

Too much sugar Too much salt

Wishing for no more assault

I really don’t want to look at the scales,

Too many fails

I cannot connect or remember

I cannot concentrate

Feels like forever

Just want to be picked for the team

I want to paint the sea and petals

Having a glow on social media

I sit in a pub

And I don’t feel enough

I look around for ‘an us’

Is there any love?

I order a drink and I open up

Send me a real Angel Lord above

A morning kiss

Verses in the morning

Sweet serenity as I open the window

A smell most sweet,I want more

Light on earth must shine

An admirable verse

The wisdom of poetry

When I fall asleep

I like to believe

My demons will leave

But when I wake up in the morning

I can’t me freed

Do I have talent on the keys?

Do I have the words to lead?

Will I find the face I long for?

To write a song for?

Food really is my battle

I’m on the edge without an apple

I have no friends,I lost the gamble

Did I become too much to handle?

I was never the best,if there was an odd number

I was an unwelcomed guest

When I worked at the shop

No-one visited like I was some dying crop

Just a little love God

How does 20 years go by?

Everyday you want to cry

Everyday they continue to lie

But I must survive

Mirror ,mirror on the wall

I’m looking for a kind soul

Can he have electric looks?Be an exceptional cook?
