The tree in front of our little balcony, I have named the Morning Song Tree. I sit there in the pre-dawn light, Listening to what sounds like a million little birds, Each burstin’ with pride, Showcasing why they be chosen for the choir. It is the first time in a long time I haven’t turnedContinue reading “The Morning Song Tree”

Unforgiveness sows a short life,But forgiving much reaps a long life,And eating sensible is good for you,A little movement goes a long way too.Leading a simple contented  life,But staying close to God in thought.Through the night,Keeping a heart both pure and strong.Sending best wishes to many a friend.Doing a daily crossword,Just to keep the mind alert.Don’tContinue reading “One Hundred Plus”

One is alone, doing without. Two, together, see they have clout, And the chance to smile More than just once in a while. Three, see an arguable alternative That gives them a reason to live.

Today is Guardian Angel Day. She watches over me, Through streams and dreams she guides me, Shelters me through scraped knees, A candle in my new moon.

The homeless man. Why is he homeless, why doesn’t he get a job Well… He had a good job, he had a beautiful wife, Depression hit him and destroyed his life. Drugs took control, and he started drinking, Into a hole he kept on sinking. His wife left him, he was out in the cold,Continue reading “The Care Shelter Poem”

I bought an old ‘Radio Birdman’ record, Brought me back to my youth! Made me want to disturb neighbours half my age, By turning it up above an acceptable volume! But good manners intervened. I saw them once in ’96, They had reformed from the ’70’s. I went, Full of expectations of wonder… I foundContinue reading “Rock on…”

My life was a rollercoaster. At the beginning, in my twenties, I was a rebelling. Literally doing ridiculous things I didn’t want to do. I was moving like mad, from flat to flat. Wasn’t settled anywhere. Wouldn’t stay in one place for long, then I would up and leave. I had that many flats in the past, and nowContinue reading “Life Story, Now!”

You may not care for me, But Jesus does.   You may not befriend me, But Jesus does.   You may not defend me, But Jesus does.   You may not embrace me, But Jesus does.   You may not guide me, But Jesus does.   You may not hold me when I cry, ButContinue reading “Amen”
