Tanya Canning Poem
What would it be like if I were a tree
Just how different my life would be
Standing still for years on end
Perhaps it would drive me round the bend
Back and forth I’d sway in the breeze
Then in the winter my branches would freeze
In the autumn I would be naked and bare
But I’m just a tree so who’s going to care
I’ll attract all the birds when it turns to spring
They will sit on my branches and then start to sing
Building their houses they fly too and fro
Too bring up their young I watch how they grow
When it gets cold they’ll all fly away
The sign that its winter with a sky that is grey
Alone again not one single bird
The sound of the singing not to be heard
All the little animals have all hidden away
I’m stuck in the ground that’s where I will stay
I see the odd person who’s out for a jog
Then there are others out walking their dog
Then they will stop to let the dog pee
But why do they have to do it on me
Kids swing from my branches till they fall apart
If only they realised I do have a heart
Then there are others who give us the chop
Just to make furniture to sell in their shop
I wish I could talk then I could explain
That I do have feelings and I do feel the pain
So next time your out you’re bound to see me
Maybe you’ll realise I’m not just a tree

Tanya Canning Poem
I know I did wrong I committed a crime
That’s why I’m here just doing my time
Alone in a room behind a locked door
With stains on the wall and dirt on the floor
Four bars on the window there’s not much to see
For breaking the law looked what happened to me
I miss all my friends and my family as well
For doing wrong I am locked in a cell
One little room with a pan and a sink
You couldn’t imagine ho what a stink
I can’t wait for the day that comes to an end
Why no visits V.O’s I did send
For what I had done I had a lesson to learn
Just sitting and waiting to hear the key turn
I’m telling you this so listen to me
For breaking the law behind bars you will be

Tanya Canning Poem
LIFE !!!
Some people FIGHT some people KILL,
We know it won't stop it never will,
What life would be like without all of this ,
It would just be great LIFE would be bliss,
The YOUNG & INNOCENT arnt safe on the streets,
there's somebody somewhere that will entice them with sweets,
Then there are others who do it for greed,
FEW years in prison then they are freed,
the PENALTY of DEATH should be brought back in FORCE,
For those that hurt others i,'all show no REMORSE,
People like this we should change the law
INSTEAD of a few years behind a locked door,
They know damn well they will soon be set free,
To hurt someone else, could even be you or could even be me,
Then back behind bars they know they will go,
For what they have done no regret do they show,
So now you have heard just I JUST HOPE THAT YOU SEE
THIS WORLD IS FULL OF ANGER & HATRED,,, .......... FOR ETERNITY !!!!!
