Premium Member Of all the things you used to do

"Of all those things you used to do" 
my heart will not go through again 
Love is lost no more flame is felt 
your heart brittle from it's coldness

All the cute nicknames stay the same
"Of all those things you used to do"
"now here comes your secret lover" 
how you fancy her more than me 


"Until your guilt goes up in flames"
No more poor me or pity me 
"Of all those things you used to do"
 has set my world free and at last

"I got a few years on me now"
Learning from mistakes such as you
free at last to live my own life
"of all those things you used to do"

Ka, the Lost Canadian Goose

for my gentle handsome son, Keith Andrew-

The young Canadian goose was lost in flight,
Not knowing which way to turn-
Now he depended on instinct and sight,
And what he had already learned-

The clouds engulfed all his air space,
And for the skein his heart did yearn-
They were migrating north in springtime,
Towards their nesting grounds to return-

He was sure he could navigate the course,
But he really needed to see-
For now it was against time that he raced,
Hoping that soon with them all he would be-

He flew at an altitude of 3,000 feet, 
the migration height that geese fly-
’but then remembered on some occasions,
they’d go up 27,000 feet in the sky!

He tried to get his bearings,  
by estimating their rate of speed-
Canadian Geese cover 1,500 miles a day,
He’d have to fly faster to succeed- 

KA, with courage geared up,
and charged right through the distant clouds-
He spotted black feathered necks and feet,
and heard lots honking that was loud-

His father was in the lead,
of the “V” formation that geese fly-
His mother was right behind,
Asking, “Where did he go and why?”

The young Canadian goose remained in back,
Until all of them touched the ground-
Mother emerged from the gaggle with glee,
Happy her son was found-

Mom and father were together for life-
In the geese world that’s how it goes-
Now it was KA’s time to find a mate,
He made it just in time to propose!

A Cowboy Is

"I should have been a cowboy"
Toby Keith sings in his song;
I should have been a cowboy 
breaking horses all too strong...

I could have been a cowboy
sitting high up in the saddle,
but my job wouldn't be easy
since I have to tend to cattle...

I would have been a cowboy
if I was just one foot taller,
but those jeans aren't made
for someone fatter and smaller...

I might have been a cowboy
if I had lived out in the dust,
but I was born in the East
and stayed to watch it rust...

Alas, I never became a cowboy -
not sitting high, not very strong;
but I do wear my cowboy boots
whenever I sing with Toby's song.

Singing On the Bus

I used to sing on the school bus, 
Harmonise and everything, full blast, 
Most of the others had strong voices, 
And I would wish mine was cast. 

Geoff the driver would put Radio Forth on, 
And we’d all sing along very loudly;
There was nothing there to sing above, 
No-one to distract or behave scornfully. 

My mum told me off three times, 
For singing in church normally and confidently, 
As she needed me to have a place for her, 
To nurture me and disciple me intelligently. 

So since I was four, I've never really sung again, 
In church, all dressed up and religious, 
So I greatly appreciated those times on the bus, 
When the others were about my voice zealous. 

I remember Morvan who had Christian grandparents, 
And George who really had a lovely voice, 
And Keith who would join in whenever he wanted to, 
And Kirsteen who thought she had no choice. 

It was an offish old yellow mini bus,
With dark yellow and brown triangle seats,
So it reminded me of the yellow submarine, 
And I looked forward to its shortcut cheats.

Premium Member Just Write

The challenge... to write a whole load of sh*te
No sense and no meaning, no thought waves to fight
Don’t think it, don’t plan it, don’t jot down a draft
Don’t worry that what you write might turn out daft...

Well, me and a teddy had been going steady
And when she was ready she yelled Gee up Neddy
That bear didn’t care, that we were a pair
Although she was there wearing no underwear

A fellow called Keith slipped her a leaf
To cover her tummy and what lay beneath
She growled that’s not funny, then choked on her honey
I hope I inherit all of her money

So this might be sh*tty, it may not be gritty
And if you don’t like it, well, that’s just a pity
For, yes, I have written some garbage for you
But that’s what the sponsor has told me to do

Food Lovers

You go into the kitchen and begin to prepare a meal.
I tiptoe up behind you and tickle your waist.
You jump and squeal with laughter.
You put the ingredients on the work surface.
And pickup your sharp knife and wave it in my face.
Now Keith stop being silly while I prepare your food.
No more touchy feely. I am not in a childish mood.
I put up my hands and put them around your waist.
Giving you a passionate kiss.
You turn and use the cutting board.
I open the chilled white wine.
You take the glass and have a drink.
Then leave it on the side of the sink.
You cut the salad and shake the bowl.
Putting in salad dressing I think it was Vinaigrette.
It was nice the salad was all wet.
You peeled some fruit and took an orange segment.
Turning to me you put it to my mouth.
I bit into it halfway then put my lips to yours.
So we both got the taste.
It ran into our tastebuds.
You laughed and turned away.
I pulled your hair to one side.
And kissed your neck.
The taste of the orange was on your skin.
You laughed and said it tickles so much.
I said I love when you laugh! I can never get enough.
We move to the table to eat the meal.
You begin to rub my leg with your foot.
I say darling what is it you want?
You push closer and whisper.
My lover Can you pass the salt.
I get up and walk over to your side.
You pull back and look in my eyes.
I take your hand and you get up.
Then you sit in my lap facing me.
Your hair covers my face as you lock lips with me.
We can eat our meal later it wont go cold.
Making love to you is always more fun.

I always like to give big thanks for small mercies.

Premium Member A Love Hate Relationship

Gran stands over me whilst I eat my corn
gee, I’ve hated corn since I was born,
but my Grandma says it's good for me
so she’s cooked a huge pile for my tea!

Gold kernels get stuck between my teeth
all my friends laugh at me especially Keith.
He’s lucky he doesn’t have to eat the stuff,
I’m sick of eating corn I’ve truly had enough!

I wish that I could be like all the other boys
I have to tow the line, mustn’t make a noise,
I’ve lived with Grandma since I lost my Ma and Pa
So in all honesty my Grandma’s a real super star!
