and do what you must to speak the truth.

Who all receive the love that my own would.
Hugs, Kisses, Care and Treats.
Their smiles keep me...

Smoke wafted across the village,
The swack,swack, swack, sound
Of a helicopter inbound,

As it landed, 
Amidst the carnage caused,
By it’s crew now disbanded,
The horrors of war, 
are but dreams when they sleep,
the traumas they live with,
they always will keep.

Just then...

At the window where I sit and stare
I see a soldier walking bare
He’s face is wrinkled and full of doubt
“Stop the war!” I stand up and shout
Still he marches on to duties end
My message of guilt I shall send
But he can not hear my selfish...

middle aged and middle class
driving way too fast
on country lanes

drop the kid at school
group yoga then the pool 
prosecco and wealth envy over lunch

on to a manicure and then hair
(you won’t believe who I saw there)
send conspiratorial text or two; update facebook

get some vino, and...

Bella rides the crescent moon with ease,
a stellar faerie that’s sure to please.
She waits and watches up on high,
every star that passes her by.

With ebony wings she is a sight,
resting upon that silvery light.
Tiny stars pass and say “hello”;
Bella’s thrilled with their light show.

To her...

Brisk winter air has settled in
I venture into my back yard
Grab a rake and pile up leaves
To be burned, with disregard

As I set torch to said fallen
I reflect on a job well done
Something assuredly needed
Now who's the responsible one?

Holiday spirit surrounds me
Bundled up in my...

If you're alive, accept the ups and downs of life
As an infant accepts its new name
Live knowing life is two faced a coin.

If you're married, relate as tongue and teeth
Always forgiving 
And to your companion in all a weather stick
As a Zebra and her stripes
Two beings...
