She stands in our doorway
She looks
She waves goodbye

Her poise
Her stature
Here beside me

Caress softly
Caress in passion
Carefree because of her

Sweetly honest
Sweetly caring
Sweating in harmony

Meeting in my hometown
Meeting after way too long
Met once never to part

The rose emits her perfume
The bluebell carpets the forest floor
The summer reminds me of her

Sitting talking
Sitting by a man made lake
Situated, at ease in comfort

Watching her sleeping
Watching her laughing
Water flows from source to sea

From the moment that we came together
From the moment of our introduction
Following through many years

If I could have but one wish I'd ask
For the moments passed to be remade
The heights of splendour we have achieved

Even the lows that bring us closer
Or threaten us with failure
Each second earthbound should be savoured

Every heartbeat that's skipped and faltered
During sorrow, joy our son and daughters
Brought to this place through our decisions

I stand beside her, in her perfect grace
If I go through life and make mistakes
If she complains its only fair

A journey stepping over stones
Eyes share sights
We fill with pride

Don't be afraid to show you care
Don't think that you are unmanly or rare
Don't imagine that you are alone
They make us what we have become

Life is sweet when you have this
It may not always be made of bliss
Make up to her
Whom you have sweetly kissed.

Fight for your life.

The soft sand ridden muddy path Under my feet Is cushioned for me by sturdy black boots Sloppy, slick slimy navigating as every part of my leg plays a part in keeping me upright Sinews twist, the cramping ageing muscles uncomfortably held in kilter Heading for home Light retreats The ever arriving daily dusk clocks in I can't see the car quite yet. This place takes me away But only for a short time Drudgery Routine Work Though enjoyable Wears at one Through time, burdened by the worries of others Chinks appear, cracks of darkness on a golden life Wandering, watching  twigs may snap Wind blown pine trees sing in high pitched terror Birds dart Rabbits unseen? But for borrows Buzzards soar A red kite adorned a fence post Squirrels elusive Watching Just in case I might see one race by Even in the periphery of either eye A busy head is a safe head? Freedom from worries Eating and gnawing Snatching at anything that will offset these thoughts Let th

Physgill. Watch the swiftly feeding swallow Sun outside But not it in the hollows Of the shrubs and the greenery Fresh cut lawn Hydrangea, Rose Honeysuckle aroma The fields with the peas, A sea of swaying green Moves like an ocean The sound of the trees Moved and being shaken By the summertime breeze Cattle in the drive way Pheasants shouting loudly The deer are cautious Barn owls swoop in darkness Caught by car lights Badger scurried across the road Foxes rare The game keepers gun. A lamb down a tree trunk Discovered by Rosalind Pulled out by a farmer Care for injured falconry Rescued for love Of all that was around us The freedom The tranquility The sea and the solway Not too far away The Glen with her garlic Appetizing rambling Down to the shore Where pebbles and boulders You arrive at the bay. The cave has a host A man in a smock Ninian the monk Later canonised Who sat in meditation Considering faithfulness Sheltered from harm. C

Positivity explodes from every pore Despite my doubters This year I'll do much more More for others if I am able More for my family Food for our table. Be all Be everything Reach for the star's Grab opportunity When it comes along Don't be fearful of anything If you can't see it It's not there Resolutions are a misnomer Bound to fail unless Heroically striving You can drag your self from bed Failure makes you hurt inside Disappointment is the foe When February roles in Defeated You'll weep inside Lie low Avoid the gaze, the question's About The intentions you shared before So this year I'm not trying to change dramatically My aspirations will be tempered Measured in a way My mind is set to a default I've probably had before Self doubt is now the enemy Belief in me is raw Attraction Is the focus Bring it to myself Ignore the dampened shadows That have me running scared True to me and the possibility That wha
