TIME WAITS FOR NOBODY
On a sunny day Right in my parlour Laying on the couch I was going through my phone Then I paused for a moment Because of the sound of our wall clock. The time keeps ticking Every second You see how busy nature is Why sitting without labouring? Don't choose comfort At the age of labour Then you...

Putting Together
I ordered a free-standing cabinet, Despite having known in advance It needed to be Put together by me And my husband, who viewed it askance. All the pieces were labeled quite clearly, As was each tiny bag filled with screws, So we read the brochure, Not quite feeling secure, Yet we thought we had nothing to lose. As we struggled to follow instructions, Which had steps...

Premium Member putting my dogs in a penned play yard
The dogs are unfettered in this pen It’s big enough for an army of a hundred and ten No one has to wear a leash or be tied The yard is long, the pen is wide Still, I feel guilty leaving them here Why this is, is in no way clear They are safe here, they cannot chase cars Yet leaving them...

Putting the Pieces Together
I gather my fragments like stars in the night, Each shard holds a memory, dimmed but still bright. Some pieces I cherish, some I let go— The weight of their presence is no longer in tow. With patience and purpose, I forge something new, Not quite what I was, but steadfast and true. Each crack tells a story of falling and...

Putting it into words
Another drop of wine, it’ll mask my recent crime To find peace in the smoke helps replace the things I’ve broke To enter into his bed paves an exit from my head A mirror on the wall, highlighting the tragedy of it all The tightening grip, running down to my hips The water from my eyes birthed...

If the LORD is my Lamb I'll shepherd Him back To a world that has lost Him from their sight as we've often sunbathed and sailed without giving Him a thought He streams Mercy into our souls taking away the sins of the world for He's the Lamb of God I walk with Him through the valley of the shadow of death journeying...

Is spending to save putting the cart before the horse
Maybe we should do a rethink about spending to save, If we are using all our credit on a roll of the dice, And instead keep that option on ice, While we think about how much is too much rice. I think the horse would rather be pulling the cart instead of pushing it, Especially as a new owner is...

Premium Member Putting It Together
I step out into the evening, into a cloud of whispered conversations, insect talk, birds uttering their “goodnights” high in the trees, the days last gossip settling back into a more respectable muttering of leaves. Then other sounds, a child’s cry sobbed out of an open window and then, two houses along, raised voices from down a dark passageway spilling into the...

Putting People Down
Lovers have each other so they, will never have to be alone. A king has his tall stone castle, where he can sit upon his throne. Musicians have their instruments, and a singer will have a song. Religions will have holy books, to teach them about right and wrong. The poets have their words to give, the baker has a...

Premium Member Putting Myself Together
Daybreak and I've managed it again, putting myself together from all the parts left strewn across my sleep. I seem to fit into myself so well, a glance in the mirror confirms the features and shape look right. Some days I may get the sequence a little wrong, a trait or attribute placed out of order, noticed when I...
