What Is Left

Who will be left to carry on
When we are done and dusted and gone
What will be remembered of our things lost
How it was then and what it cost
Gentle or harsh as things go
What is left and what will they know.

Premium Member Seasonal Goods

With Christmas done and dusted now that we’re in January
I’m feeling rather portly cos I ate, drank and got merry
With twenty pounds upon my waist and ten pounds on my legs
The last thing that I need is shops crammed full of Easter eggs

Premium Member Almost Too Late

Listen to poem:
As bloated seas lap at doors.
As floods and storms batter on shores
Nations wait in climate inaction
because no one takes action
until it's almost too late,
By then, left to fate,
there's no track back
to make a comeback.
We're all done and dusted.

Ego busted Ego busted, then why fear death When God’s life force withdraws If thought forms yet spiral in stealth Soul’s stained by ego’s paws Destiny’s die is cast Hermit, be not aghast This breath may be our last Done and dusted Ego busted 02-June-2022 Quietus

Premium Member -Faith In Mankind

Feeling disillusioned with mankind

Disappointed and disgusted

At behaviours l have viewed of late

Leaving me thinking morality is done and dusted


Yesterday, my faith and belief in mankind

Was somewhat restored

By random acts from strangers

Where selflessness, compassion and kindness soared

Premium Member At Arm's Length

Listen to poem:
Just when we thought
wars were well and truly over,
done and dusted -
Russia invades Ukraine.
No mettle for friends
to take up arms.
to don the coat of arms
and fight tooth and nail
to quell the invader.
Instead its alms that are offered
and sanctions to starve and demean
the invader's will to fight.
It's a new World Order 
at arm's length.

Grief - A New You

Sitting quitely in the evening, 
The hard days work done and dusted, 
Stillness reminds me I am still grieving, 
Airing my feelings leaves me flustered,

So many questions of how and why, 
Two vibrant souls gone just like that,
Stunned and bereaved I break down and cry, 
Searching for meaning I fall flat, 

A world I no longer recognize, 
Nor the self I once knew, 
Pick yourself up and dry your eyes,
Begin again, I search for you. 

I love you.
