Jab

Got the text on Monday morning
best news I have had
as today in just a little while
I’ll have had the job
And yes, we’ll still be careful
but if you need a thing
to put a smile upon your face
and give you cause to sing
Then this is up there at the top
of all the things to give
Something truly wonderful
allowing all to live

A SIMPLE BIRTHDAY WISH

My Birthday Wish Is Simple
It’s The Same One Every Year

I hear the ticking

But what am I but the feelings that linger inside;

Local Lake

Daily walk around the lake,

Mindset changed instantly.

Worry free ducks floating,

Soft birds’ chirping;

Ten thousand

Walked ten thousand steps today
recorded on my wrist
Still need to get my head round that
but I think I’ve got the gist
An early birthday present
tracking fitness on my phone
Syncing all by Bluetooth
where my progress is then shown

Salt cave

Sitting in a salt cave
Breathing deep the air
Relaxing for an hour
In the quietness there
Feeling natural remedy
Take away the wheeze
My laboured breath reducing
Gently here with ease

Gregory

He looked up at me

“Hi Dad” I said

His eyes were inspecting me

Up and down, side to side

“You are not my son” he said

Carpe Diem

 

There’s nothing much better
than when under the weather
you start to feel well again
and come back together

Bonsai Back

My bonsai has bounced back
He’s looking pretty good
He has lots and lots of greenery
And looks just as he should

Toast – haiku

Heaven – likened to
Hot buttered toast following
Fasting day diets

Better days

My bonsai has seen better days
He looks a bit like how I feel
Ailing somewhat at the mo
But hoping soon to heal

What Lies Underneath

Look at her

With her designer sunglasses

Covering half her face

 

Look at her

With her two hundred pound

A piece

Hair extensions

Poem: Age

The bones are creaking.

Joints in pain.

Starting to swell.
