New Year Resolutions
New Year resolutions
Broken within two days,
A bother and palaver
Such a pointless craze!
Last year I tried not having chocolate
For a whole week....
Well, that was impossible,
Have a Merry Christmas
Have a wonderful Christmas
To everyone here,
Have a peaceful and happy
New Year,
Have a fabulous time
Wherever you are,
Whatever you might do,

Passion for Poetry
The home to well thumbed stories
Binding becoming worn
As each day another is told
And another born.
A bookcase crammed full
Of tales of all kinds
Made into a book
To expand our minds.

I am
I am the mountain
Standing tall and proud,
I am the wind
Riding amongst the clouds,
I am the sun
Bringing a smile to your face,
I am the stars
Illuminating the whole of space,
I am the wave

It's You
You walk this way, you surely know
That this time I'm the one to show,
You can hear the tears in my voice
You look at me, you make a choice
I see it all across your face,

A Woman's Work is Never Done
Housework is somehow never done
You think you've finished
Then discover another one!
You try to make a list
But run out of paper,
There's so many you say to yourself

My Christmas
Christmas I really love
That cosy feeling like putting your hand
Inside a velvet glove...
It provokes memories
Of old and new,
It makes you think of things you did when you were tiny

A Whisper On My Lips
You slide your arms round my waist,
hands softly warm against my skin
massaging up and down
as you kiss my neck,
gently stroking my hair
a finger to my lips
planting a whisper upon them

Silver and Gold
Out in the cold
I wonder
A time to behold.
I'm alone this time
Nothing can be mine,
Because no one's been told...
Adorned with silver and gold
I watch things unfold
As silent as the sky,

Born From Bad Flames
I knew I was bad
From the beginning,
They said I was mad,
They said I was sinning,
Said the nurse who delivered me
"That's the baddest baby I ever did see,
She'll bring shame to your family,
What is Christmas?
What do you think of
When you think of Christmas?
Maybe it's tinsel, a tree, presents,
Food, a traditional family dish?
What makes Christmas for you?
Is it the decorations,
The celebrations,

Christmas Get Togethers
Who likes Christmas get togethers?
I certainly don't!
It's always cold and wet
The bother of having to put on an extra coat,
So you can go and see a bunch of strangers

A Time of Peace
Christmas time
The best time of year,
Festive spirits erupting all round
Smiling and good cheer,
As we laugh,
Happy and merry
Because of the time of year it is

My Hand, Your Heart
The breathe that passes between us,
The understanding that doesn't need to be said,
The way you react,
The way you protect me,
There's no need to say anything
Because you know I love you.

No Christmas Dream
Christmas time for a little girl
Age nine years old,
Presents, a tree, decorations,
Where magical stories are told.
Christmas Eve for a little girl
Age nine years old,
