THE STORY OF BABY ELLIE
Ellie was just three months old,
When she was brought to our sanctuary,
A safe haven was our fold.
She was an orphan, her mother,
Her sister, her aunt, her brother,
All chased and shot, and left to die,
From our sad experience we knew,
That probably a foul mouthed,
Red faced, sun frazzled man
Whose muscled legs would look
Disgusting,

Ode To Ellie Brown
Goodbye to the leprechauns
goodbye clover carpets of green
I will cross many a deep blue sea
to a wide sunshine land, just for me.
I have my shamrock, my lucky charm
my memories of many, a green rural farm
so goodbye to villages and life so simple and true
from a young lass to womanhood, I now have grew.

Hark Ellie
R. Kelly did meet Lucy Furr
But - dang it all - she did not purr!
He sang, "Bum Rap"
But that was crap
Because his peers would not concur

Every day I wonder,
Like a daydream all the time,
Love is always the answer,
Into this heart of mine,
Everything will be just fine.

Song For Ellie
You wooed me with your lifestyle
Your black and marble palace
The wealth and rooms were vast
I trusted you with my future
But now that time has passed
By myself time for reflection
An opening that closed a door
In my heart I saw with clarity
You priorities never me
No faith, no hope nor charity
You only get one shot in life
I don't

Ellie Robinson
Ellie became instantly popular on Twitter,
For her Rio entrance to the 50m butterfly,
Which became known affectionately as,
The “gangster entrance”, her huge jacket.
Ellie was diagnosed in November of 2012,
Just after the London Paralympic Games,
When she was inspired by Ellie Simmonds,
To get into the pool and achieve ambitions -
She was

Ellie Simmonds
Born in Walsall but growing up in Aldridge,
Ellie was born with achondroplasia to bridge,
She ended up at Olchfa School in Swansea,
With a larger swimming pool, destiny to see.
She was born on the 11th of November 1994,
At an age of 5 she opened the swimming door,
Her coach for her young life was Ashley

Elevated Ellie
Bringing out all the little tricks in her bag wanting to impress and edge up in
standing of her circle of influence
having left behind the squares of preponderance
She laughed aloud at herself before anyone
else could
Out of the box and tossed in air the garments
was flying everywhere big poofs of gauzy and fluttery finery no

Poor Ellie
Poor Ellie, sweet Ellie
Her mother just cooed
Tomorrow’s a brand new day
I can’t spank you child
For just running wild
Stacy’s hair will grow back anyway

A Joke On Ellie!
A Joke on Ellie!
There once was a boatman named “Ellie”
Laughter jiggled his belly like jelly.
He was a fun loving bloke.
That loved to play jokes.
Guess who played one on him; it was Kelly!
The joke that she played was great fun.
After his shave and a hair comb was done,
She carefully groomed his big feet.
His snoring soon

Ellie
Ellie knew her lover was a sailor
But he promised never to leave
Then one day he sailed away
Leaving her alone to grieve
Every day she looked for him
Sitting on the dock at dawn
Hoping he would soon return
And she wouldn't be left alone
She walked along the shore at night
Leaving lonely footprints in the sand
To be washed away when

Snow and Silence - For Ellie
Shine a candle in the shadows
break the glow stick green
Conquer those New England days
You know what I mean
Tree limbs tapping at the window
frost on rivulets grey
Open up the blinds and melt them
into words you've yet to say
Soak in bubbles brought to boiling
swirled in steam and sleep
Break the silence with emotion
I am yours to keep.

Healing Ellie
I met you hollow as the bones
of sun scorched trees with roots upturned
Worn to smoothness, polished grey
I met you when you'd less to say
But time and temperance green the ground
by pushing growth and sticking 'round
The seeds which scattered, dormant, light
in a gust of wind and time, took flight
They settled with your words and grew
with limbs
