I beleive the above is needed.' To clear the air
Just like rain does, it cleans the atemosphere
And exposes the shortcomings of infrastruture
I also see the need for an annual assembley 
At rotating host countries to address health 
Concerns worldwide also possible advances 
That may be identified to human benefit
Over a current and long term time timescale.'
Any panel could include medical proffesionals
Affected by misadministerd medical intervention
I plead poetry reflecting lifes challenges as my
Reason for creating this poetical blueprint 
As it were.'

Instantaneous

Death would have been instantaneous 
He said most confidently,
But one man’s instantaneous could be
Another’s experience of infinity.
Could that  transformation from
The state of life to that of death
Really be as transient as
The gap from breath to breath.

On a different timescale, each second
Could be asa  thousand years of pain,
Extending to eternity those few 
Split seconds that remain.
It's always said as a comfort
But none of the living can know
The duration of instantaneous  
When it's the time of a being to go.

Premium MemberUnder This Cold Gaze

The connections
are tenuous, even the important ones.
The fragility mostly goes unnoticed 
until something breaks.
Structures though give a sense
of permanence and become beacons
that promise safe passage.

But this is a facade, a brief lull
in the chaos that measures out
a life and then, beyond,
the numbing timescale 
driving everything further
and further apart.

And yet,
even under this cold gaze,
there are moments that seem
to come from elsewhere,
something reaching through
to ignite the ordinary,
as when, today at dawn,
a tree released its treasure
of noisy birds and a lovely face
carried the grace of first light
into the still morning.

Premium MemberTomorrows a Brand New Day

So much can happen in a single day
all our yesterdays makes one look back
with so many memories fills our mind
giving one hope to keep you on track

Then you look to the present hour
in that timescale which calls itself day
filled with opportunities in every sphere
each day one wishes to ever stay

But for some, a day can be long
ever so lonely knowing not what to do
thinking out loud wishing for change
this really is what we knows true 

For everybody, there's always tomorrow
bringing hope for something new
when you have a brand new day
look out on morning grass so dew

Your tomorrow comes truly afresh
with anticipation to fill your heart
giving a better prospect of a new thing
come your way its no small part

Our Health Lies With the Nhs, Not God

I look to the day when they species is endangered,
When Cerebral Palsy as a condition is almost extinct,
When there’s other disabled people to interact with,
When our existence is teetering and on the brink. 

I know researchers and scientists will cure the condition, 
In two hundred years time or so by thought and deed,
By ingenuity they'll cure the brain damaged neurones,
When let us move and control our output and feed.

I hope my descendants will be far better off for me, 
No matter where they come in the timescale of drugs,
In the timescale of effective surgery or treatment,	 
To reconnect the cerebellum and neurones, the thugs. 

If you ask a believer for their confidence and hope,
They'll say god, faith, healing prayers or reverence,
But I say believe in doctors and the health service,
Trust in nurses to gain your wellbeing convergence.
