Lost Words
Lost words gone with the breeze Fluttering away never to be seen Faces will never smile at them Gone away, never heard again Whether sad or happy, far too late These lost words could’ve been great But you never listened, didn’t care Into the void you now stare Gone forever these lost words Never by […]
Loon
April 25, 2013
*The following is a fantasy idea I am toying with and may do a follow-up with it? Unsure yet. Hey you loon floating away on your balloon Pink hair whipping away in the wind of yesterday Off on an adventure once again on a mission sent Fighting ogres and other things as the wind your […]
The Twisted Tree
April 23, 2013
The twisted tree it turns in the wind Twists and claws at all in its wake Long bony fingers reach for something Anything You Asleep in your bed you suddenly awake Fearful Scared For you’re sure you’re being watched From outside by something Something ancient Old as time Scraping at the window Shadows play on […]
The Mist
April 16, 2013
The mist creeps up over the canal covering the narrow-boats, wildlife as well It slowly moves, gathering pace growing in size, it gives chase Its greedy mouth swallows whole anything in its path it takes hold Cold tendrils clasp all in its wake its hunger ravenous in all it takes People swallowed up, gone from […]
The Lonely Observation
April 11, 2013
See the man walking alone in the street Invisible is he to all he see’s or meets His head bowed down, collar against the wind No-one knows his story, disappears in the city din Watch the girl sitting on the bench watching the world go by To the outside world she seems okay but inside […]
March Hare

March Hare, March Hare bouncing around Where is it that you abound? March Hare, March Hare your madness drips through A rambling mind long did you lose March Hare, March Hare you hop away Mumbling and bumbling strange words you say March Hare, March Hare let me play Into your mad world I wish to […]
Tap, Tap, Tap
March 26, 2013
The boy he goes to bed On a dark October night Tries blocking voices in his head He doesn’t wanna see scary sights The girl has been told a story By her dad of ghosts It was so very scary The tap, tap, tap scared her the most They both dive under the sheets This […]
A Soldiers Flight from Madness
March 22, 2013
*I wrote this in honour of a soldier I once met when I was at school who came in to give a talk on the Battle of the Somme in which he fought. I remember him clearly talking and struggling as he remembered his horrific past. It has stayed with me until this day and […]
Baby Don’t Cry (Hush Little Lana)
March 22, 2013
Oh baby don’t cry your tears Sleep away the pain my dear Shall sing you a lullaby to sleep So please little baby don’t you weep Awake you are feeling ill A sleepless night affects you still All will be fine when you sleep Close your eyes and count those sheep. Hush little Lana close […]
A Womble Changed My Life
March 18, 2013
*The following is my homage to a brilliant children’s TV series from when I was a kid and I believe is still popular now. They were originally books written in the 70′s or earlier by Elisabeth Beresford and I recommend them if you have kids or know someone that does. They’re all about conservation and […]
