It was sunset time without the sun, There were clouds covering the sky, There was no wind and temperatures were warm, The Sea showed all its tricks to catch the eye. Waves were huge in the deep sea, They curled and whirled to rise high, And growled upheavals, Lashed around in every direction, Hitting boulders, … Continue reading Seaside
Poems
Jubilee Celebrations.
My homage. I got asked to write a poem for the platinum jubilee celebrations by my manager. My mind running many miles per hour produced this within fifteen minutes as the deadline was QUICK. I always enjoy writing and loved doing this piece too. It says it all. Hope you all like it.
Fearless
Knaresbrough. Exposure and Knowledge is everywhere. Pros and cons are written down. Ticks and crosses on the sheet of paper. Conclusion is reached. Why do we question so much? Why can’t we just go for it? Should friends and family opinions matter? Who is it that we have to answer to? Inner peace can be … Continue reading Fearless
Togetherness
Aysgarth Falls The roar of the waterfalls Lifelessness of the green moss Wind blown tress with bare branches Golden paths of the fallen leaves. Busy lives and fast flowing days Sometimes weeks and months go by, Finding time with each other Exploring nature in our own ways. Togetherness never felt so good.

Turmoil
Covid 19 pandemic has changed our lives. It has changed the world. The conversation on radio today was around high streets and cities. It made me think. These will change for sure. For once it may actually become more vibrant and a more sociable place rather than only based around job and economy. It may … Continue reading Turmoil
Where are you?
Wanted to see you today. Where are you? I thought I heard your voice. Is that you coming up the stairs. I can still smell you on clothes and pillows. Your glasses are still kept on the table. Slippers have not been used for a while. Why did you have to go? I did not … Continue reading Where are you?
Distances
Trees are apart so they can grow well. They spread happiness around them. Growth is better, roots can spread well. Each has its own character, loneliness is not for them. The virus is everywhere and anyone could be infected. Maintain the distance we are told. Walking near your house is allowed. Exercise is … Continue reading Distances
