When the sun nestles into the horizon
I ponder whether ‘twill be my last sunset
Glorious display in splendorous bedizen
Surely, the most beautiful I’ve seen yet,
Dipping low ‘neath the shimmering sea
Across the bay from old Puerto Vallarta
I can’t think of any place I’d rather be …
Not Majorca, not even in old Djakarta.
The western sky turns orange and red
With streaks of yellow running through
While the sun obediently lowers its head
Emotions rise; my darling, I think of you.
I long to return to the Mexican Riviera,
To watch the world’s most lovely sunset
The bay sparkling like a diamond tiara,
As peaceful and calm as I’ll ever get.

Looking forward to the holiday of a lifetime,
Destination never before ever undertaken,
A very scary journey for me, I can only imagine being,
As a first time traveler across the world,
From my cold homeland of England,
To flying high, into the brilliant bright blue sky,
Looking out as the fluffy clouds float by,
Bound for sun, sea and glorious sand,
Majorca Island here I come, that’s my plan,
Suitcase is packed, passport at the ready,
At my age, my world never expected,
My whole life through, a dream to come true,
What will I do? My desire! First thing, I’ll do,
Take a very large drink then taste in the view,
Enjoying and fun, or taking the plunge,
Swimming or diving, a boat ride to islands,
Or just sunbathing not burning,
But thinking more drinking, some more eating,
And a lot of entertaining,
Having a wonderful time,
Or just standing a while,
Experiencing the different lifestyle and culture,
Of the Spanish people.
Then very sadly flying back.
Reminiscing for the rest of my life,
And saying “I did that” Wish I was there once again.
So watch out for me! Because here I come.

There was a young man from Majorca,
Who was an annoying incessant talker,
His friends found a pool and threw him in
But sadly for them they just couldn't win,
Wouldn't you know he could talk under water.

Dearest brother in Heaven
I pray for you always
especially this time of year
as you are so very sadly missed
In everything we say and do
you live forever
inside peal drops
In a part of our heart's
held very precious dear bro
Every prayer
wishing you happiness
filled with joy dancing
with the angels
My brother drowned this night pulls heavy in sadness Halloween night whilst on holidays with his children in Majorca a sad family time of year

MONSIEUR L'VAMPYRE From My Crystal Ball
I have a message from the other side
where life has gone to find a place to hide
away from times of growing old
away from pain of seeking gold
and far away from all the lies we've lied.
It came to me from out of glass all clear
when I had let my mind to disappear
and be a transient in time
without a reason or a rhyme,
and just a bubble in my crystal sphere;
I know not who this message may be for
but only write the words some might abhor
then type them to a plastic case
and cast them in to cyberspace!
for you to know, if you should read some more;
encrypted to the dreams of yesterday
and stolen from the night along the way
the message isn't very clear
unless you see the logic here
unless you know--the things it doesn't say.
it's only words that number five and three
and now I set their fate to what you see
so make of them as you would choose
to ponder on, or win or lose,
but I bear not responsibility!

Telephones.
These things cause more aggro thanb any single object in the universe,
Firstly if you ring a service you're afflicted by a sadist female voice telling you to know your
place and follow the instructions,
Secondly if you phone someone with a mobile then its practically impossible to reach them
because they're high on cocaine,
Thirdly if you try to phone a friend they say 'I'm busy can you call back later,
And fourthly if someone phones you then its probably a company's recorded message saying
congratulations you've won the east coast of majorca,
Fifthly if you haven't been totally p##### off by now then the devil calls and tells you,
You're going to hell for eternity.
I've thrown mine out.
Good riddance to bad rubbish.
