I remember when we first met

You were striking a ball over the tennis net

You glanced towards me

I smiled back at you,with such glee

After you’d finished playing

I noticed the net fraying

I walked close by

Pretending I hadn’t noticed, I

looked up at the sky

Eventually we met for real

We were in McDonalds

choosing a meal deal

We got together, engaged, married

And your babies I carried

You died ...

It was a night just like any other. Me and my best friend going out on the town. Painting the town red, living it up, blowing our wages on frivolous things we didn’t really need. Then out for the night in something we’d bought new that very day. We hit the usual hotspot- Legends or what we would term Leg-ends thinking it was really funny and making newbies laugh as we queued up to get in. We check...

Blown their parents clean away

Spent their money

I’ll be so glad when my daughter goes

Feel drained and not at peace

She shouts, she’s bossy,

Overreacts, makes out I’m a victim

Never leaves me alone

I don’t like to moan

But when she goes

I’ll be so relieved

I’ll then find out

Is there such a thing as too much peace ?...

This is quite new to me

A subject for my Poetry

With my writing book

Upon my knee

Stoically posed in thought

An idea simply caught

Standstill, oh no

Please don’t go!

Thoughts whirling around

Lost from sound

The Orchestra play

No words, not found

The stoics were wise

Unlike me

Who can’t find some words

For my Poetry...

I was walking into town when suddenly an invisible force knocked me over, clean off my feet. I was nearby the Nags Head pub in my hometown. I looked around and no one was there. I got up, brushed myself down. Winced as my back now hurt me. I went to look in the pub yard, no one there either. I peered through the window. The usual punters, none were smirking or looking out the window. None of them ...
