They don't want you
To elevate without them
Even when they're not supportive.
They know your history,
Victory and glory; so they want to be part of it
They always want to be part of your glowing
But not part of the suffering and criticisms.
They want to partake in your glory and victory
Even when they don't know the

Game Changer
When others
play by the rules,
in their comfort zones,
my spirit
craves
the unknown.
My soul
only knows
to disrupt,
to innovate,
to rewrite
the game.

From Stranger To Game Changer
Good neighbours are hard to find,
But over time you’ve become a new friend of mine,
Our street is full of familiar faces,
But your soul oozes beautiful graces.
As I welcome your warm, kind embraces.
You are no longer just a neighbour but a friend whom I treasure.
You company brings me immense pleasure.
Your care and

Instant Mood Changer
April day is gorgeous.
I wake up early, head to my art studio.
Surrounded by paints and glitter, I feel wonderful.
Working simultaneously on four canvases, in the best of moods.
Humming to The Mamas and the Papas, seventies music.
My eye catches something running rapidly.
Screech!
Day ruined by one small black field mouse.

Forty Five Pound Mood Changer
He wandered into the kitchen in a grumpy mood, so blue
Which lasted two seconds when he saw the friendly hue
Of twenty-one month old Derrick and grinning doggie too
No one could stay grouchy looking at smiles of these two
Their natural smiles lit up the kitchen in every direction.
Grandpa felt loved, and cherished, they exuded perfection.
He put

Done with this game of emotional roulette
Been spinning this wheel quite long enough
It's time for some strategy in this old hat routine
And your cold heart needs a bit of tough love
Go on, browse my silent moves all you want
I'll take your guilty conscience for a little spin
This heart's been hurt once too many times
But

Zom zon zombie gonna get you
Cull your body and eat your insides
Turn you into one of them
Monster of the night
Demon of the flesh
Not of the Christian world
Belonging to the night
All from the ***********
It was different from other viruses
The incubating zombie virus

Game Changer
What if life was different and the rules remade,
I dare say injury would even turn on the blade.
Countless wishes were granted and others made untrue.
That once was green was now made blue.
How lucky I should be, were things made so.
Now, I simply turn away and let them go.
Things and people, goals and dreams,
they are all

A Game Changer
My Father had three daughters to his name,
Not one of us showed aptitude for sport;
The egg and spoon race was my claim to fame
And rounders’ balls were very rarely caught. *
When Father’s sporting spirits were in play,
Entrenched in Welsh traditions they’d be found;
So rugby was the order of the day;
The golden

The Game Changer In a Matrimonial Masquerade
Homes broken, futures stolen
Lives shattered
Children, men and women forsaken
Beauties and cuties battered
Family members scattered
Matrimonial vows broken
Values down watered
Untruths spoken
Wedding and kitchen party celebrations forgotten
Tempers raised, minds crazed
Intransigence and insolence gotten
Sorrows grazed, sanity and sobriety erased
Divorce legal proceedings pursued
Bad blood contemplated
Acrimony and recrimination ensued
In score setting scenes dilated and inflated
Dark thoughts entertained
Anger drawn, thrown and

Thought Changer
Catching sight of unwanted reflection
through my eyes I observe my murky mind
lifeless, inactive, defying action
just a blank canvas, raw, pure, unrefined,
desire to inject substantial color
inspired pastels to brighten the darkness
eyes opaque though restrict light, much duller
impulses, brain requesting less Starkness,
my poor mind is without shape or structure
until my thoughts turn to the

G-ame changer in life

E-lement of success shows no mistake, fault or error.

O-n the fourteenth of February.

N-ewly presented ingredient is known as the game changer.
