Just let it go!

 

                ALONE, on this autumn morn.

Wind in the trees, sun in the sky.

Shadows dance on marble stones

And still we wonder why!

 

Leaves swirl, cones drop.

It's not cold,

It's autumn!

Colours flash by my eyes, so bold!

 

Heart oval, square and round.

Gifts, tokens of love.

Adorn this ground.

For you and I too see.

 

I know I ask this question why!

There is NO answer,

NO reason.

Just let it go.

And say "Goodbye"

 


"Heaven"

You have found heaven
Peace, tranquility, solace
what more can you ask for!
As it's said in the song
" Heaven is a place on earth"
And you've found it!
Keep it close to your heart for ever.

Broken Body!

 

(Man flu or Not!!!)

 

 

Heart beat echoes,

Like a banging drum.

Pulse is racing

Is there more to come!

 

Head is pounding

Hot or Cold!

Throat is raw, like broken glass

Hope this pain not going to last!

 

Is it a fever!

Is it a cold!

Is it anything!

Or am I getting old!

 

The pain will go

The fever will pass

I'm not ill!

Just look in the glass!

 

The glass is empty

The potion is gone

I'm feeling better

The body's not wrong!

This is something I wrote 2 years ago, I put it away and forgot about it. Today I came across my old book and decided it was time to put it in print.

 

 

"A Narrowing OF My Road"

 

My blog is called "The Long and Winding Road" and is a collection of my thoughts as I travel along my road (The road is "Life") We as individuals all have a road to walk, for some of us the path is flat and smooth, for others rocky and uneven.

My road began to narrow very recently! This was caused by the sad and untimely death of my Dad. A major Juncture in my life, and one that will take months if not years to comprehend.

Suddenly out of the blue my road begins to widen? A very dear friend whom I had not seen or heard of for over 20 years got in touch, a ray of sunshine to brighten a very gloomy few months.

But then like a bolt of lightening my road starts to narrow once again? My friend is diagnosed with a medical condition that requires immediate radical surgery!!!!!

The moral of this short message is : Whatever life throws your way – "YOU" have to stay strong, use your network of friends. And remember to walk with pride down that "Long and Winding Road"

Success

Success is a "Journey" and not a "Destination"



Remember those days!



 Remember those days in that old school yard?
We were young,
Innocent, bold but smart.

Days were long, and full of fun
So many memories
With lots more to come.

Classrooms were full, and never dull
Old fashioned milk bottles
The government rule.

That little glass bottle
And that long white straw
With its silver top, we all wanted more.

That yearly medical!
The nit nurses grin
Hoping your head held nothing within?

But oh how I remember, that old school yard
When the summers were long
Those times were hard.

I look back on those days
And smile with pride
Those old school days, there was nothing to hide.

Flip-flop


Flip-Flop, Flip-Flop
A shoe of comfort
Shoe or not?


Wet or dry
They mould the soul.
All colours of the rainbow
Causing damage untold.


The sun is out
Weather is warm.
These barmy days
When Flip-Flops are worn.
