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!

Short story

Lisa Howarth Short story

I crepted up the stairs,the wind was howling outside like ghosts holding a tune.

I put out my toes to feel each step because I couldn’t see a thing!

Reaching for the rail I remember thinking I could do with a candle but when

I got to my room the door opened on its own!Even the curtains were moving.

I decided to investigate,carefully pulling a curtain back and holding my breath.

The window was open!But, I saw a bat flying past and immediately shut it tight!

Goodness me.Even the trees were looking distressed and the leaves were curling and swirling in

waves.I kept thinking there was a monster outside my bedroom window,a monster made of

Wood chippings climbing my house.I dreamt I was kidnapped by the wood monster and

Taken to the chipper myself.

Then,the morning arrived.Everything looked like poetry,the birds singing,the sun and the flowers.

And the smell of fresh clothing on the line really put a spring in my step!

The clock struck 6.I had a busy day ahead on the market selling plants,garden ornaments

And outdoor stuff.It was my mother’s stall.We had lovely little waterfalls and bird huts and food.

At home we had a big wooden shed in our back garden but we never went inside,that was

Where the wood monster lived!

We didn’t even look through the shed window.We thought bats were flying around it at night,

Circling around it like they were looking for someone.

One night I decided to go outside the house with a very large torch,it was dark

But I really wanted to see inside the shed.So,I was quiet and grabbed a large stick just in case.

Each step I got closer my feet got colder.I was wearing a nightie and dressing gown and careful

Not to step on the cracks in the pavement because that would be bad luck!

So I approached the shed and slowly unlocked the door.I wondered if there would be any mice

And spiders!Maybe there was a family of animals!Lot’s and lot’s of animals!

I pushed the door and saw spider webs,old deckchairs but no wood monster!

Not even one chip!So,I returned to bed,proud of myself.

But then I thought what if he was hiding in the garage?Hiding under the car?

Or hiding behind the hedge?In the trees?

What if there was a secret world through the rose bush where everyone was invited?!!!

I thought,’I really must find it’.

Not sure what I feel

Not sure if it’s real

But I think we could heal

In the end

We are all placed in a grave

And when the rain comes we get to bathe?!

I wonder if we get to smell the flowers?

I wonder if we listen to the church clock

To pass the hours?

I wonder if we all get to chat

Listen to the birds singing

And give God a clap!

So intimate

Like chocolate

So intimate

A violet

So intimate

My own comet

So intimate

Your spirit

I love the passionate

I love the affectionate

Something precious and perfect

I'm in the thunder

At War with a fly in the kitchen!

At War with writing fiction!

At War with doing up my pants!

And the decision to go to the gym!

The bullet,I saw him kiss another

Your words are gelling

Your words melting

Your heart is close to me

Your love opens the cage

To let me go free

Touching your hand is warm and soft

Like feeling the sunrise each day

You are a light at night guiding me the way

Your eyes are ‘the swirling sea’

It feels like they are choosing me

Love is flying like a dove

Love is that moment you share with God

Love is knowing you have enough

Love brings protection

It’s what you dream of

No experience

I need to step out of the audience

Spray a little fragrance

Show some elegance

Stop the over indulgence

Why did you die?

Clouds gather in my heart

Why can’t I fly with you in the park?

How does it feel to be slim?

Does it mean you win?

Or are you running from a pillaging?

Why are you not moral?

Am I on the wall in a splat?

Am I directly under a lit match?

Am I in the dangerous bachelor pad?

In the path of a hot tap?

Would he listen to my story

Keep me warm with a rug?

My little ‘cream tea’!

Trapped by a rose

Love is flowin,enjoyin with you

When they don’t want you back for fat

And you’ve got the sack

Feel’s like there’s nothing left to attract

Even with a platt in your hair

No-one really wants to be there

I’m just not me

I had a strong tummy

I could wear high heels and not panick

I remembered every detail,every person,every drink

I cared about how I look

I trusted my family and friends

Why didn’t they save me?

The rain is following me

The world is swallowing me

Living in fear

Deep into my heart

I watch the river of white rushing water passing by

Stuck for words but

I can see a group of dancing birds

The colours are beautiful

They are soaking into my heart

Sat on the park

Imagine a party and

 A latenight bathe!

Cooking

Cooking?

Let’s make a booking

And come home for pudding!

When I was a child and my mum made bacon

The smell of cooking filled the house

And when my mum did some baking

I felt like a happy mouse!

One Christmas I attempted to cook a turkey

But I discovered I wasn’t a kitchen fairy!

The meat was dry,the heat was too high

I was no Mary!

Flirty turkey

Golf and cooking

Good cooking is like good putting

It’s good to begin small

A lovely,lovely main course

After a day on the golf course!

Cooking and sex

I’m stood at the hob watching the bubbling

Then he put’s his hands round my waist

Kisses my neck towards my place

My starry loves (children)

Haunted,they are

Still taking the piss in my gym knickers

A purple hand

A need to find a waistband

What am I doing to my body?

My eating is deadly,ungodly

When I look at photos I look like bacon fat

Hiding under a wooly hat

But I’m waiting for the fog to clear

I’m giving in to the fear

Eating chocolate my eyes tear

How did I get here?

Do I belong with the rats?

Will I ever get out of this trap?

Am I being held under a hot tap?

I exercise on the cross trainer lap after lap

I want to dance with your balance

Exercise is hope

A sigh of hope

Should I be smoking?

Constantly joking?

The loneliness is soaking into my bones

Looking at my mobile phone

A racing heart

The shimmering gleaming gift of music

She is the loving bloom of any room

Hearts of Pandora

To all the mothers of the world

A reaching hand makes your eyes pearl

The dewdrops of you

The dazzling drops of you

Starry moments

Radiant lines

Luminous green leaves

Sparkling blue seas
