Blank Page

Hi there,

I've shared my poem with One Shot Wednesday.

No rhythm, no rhyme
No plot conceived
The page is blank
Breathe girl, breathe

The cursor blinks
She’s taunting me
The first words
Will set me free



Take a deep breath
Trust your heart
Words will flow
Just need to start



The story evolves
An image so clear
The page is full
No longer feared


See you tomorrow

You Inspire Me

Hi there,

I've shared my poem with One Shot Wednesday.

Grandma’s stories
Tucked up in bed
The way she loved me
The things she said

First true love
The touch of your hand
Sitting on benches
Making big plans



Family and children
Inspire me each day

I see myself in them
In a different way



Woman full grown
My time to shine
The simple life
Inspires me just fine

Be kind to each other.

Finding My Muse

Here's my One Shot for the week.

She builds me up
When I'm feeling low
No need to think
The words will flow

Sometimes I giggle
At the lines we share
Did I write that?
Blissfully unaware

When I'm stuck in a rut
She whispers and taunts
Words don't make sense
Her rhymes she flaunts

Silently mocking
When I'm feeling my best
Beneath the surface
With my misery suppressed

She knows I'll be back
We are one and the same
Her words I must write
Or she'll drive me insane

She's gives herself freely
Time and again
I can't thank her enough
My muse, my trusted friend



I haven't been around much in blog land because my Dad has been in the hospital. He's feeling much better and is going to be fine. I'll write more about it tomorrow when I've caught up with my emails etc.

See you tomorrow
Take care of each other

A Poem In My Pocket

I've shared this poem with One Shot. 






A poem in my pocket
close to my heart

it's there to remind me
of our love
when we're apart



A poem in my pocket
I read every day
it's short and simple
shows you love me
in every way



A poem in my pocket
brings tears to my eyes
I know it's always there
yet each day
unfolds a new surprise





See you tomorrow

One Shot - My Creativity

Here's my contribution to One Shot. An acrostic poem this week :)

M  y soul exposed

Y  our understanding

C  onstantly in my head

R  hythms and rhymes

E  xpressions of self

A  heart at peace

T  ime to dream

I   maginaton runs wild

V  isions on paper

I   nspiration

T  otal freedom

Y earnings met

Not much to report today. I just made myself a cup of coffee, sat down to check  my emails and then made myself another coffee without even realising I already had one waiting to be sipped. I think it's gonna be one of those days, hehe. Feeling a little nervous actually, going out with Whitesnake tonight to meet some of his work buddies. I love meeting new people but there's always that thought in the back of my mind...what happens if I have a panic attack and have to leave? What will they think? I know these thoughts can bring on anxiety and I'm working on retraining those thoughts. It's a hard habit to get out of after years of panic attacks but I'm getting better all the time.

Have a great day/night and I'll let you know how I get on  tomorrow.

Friend Or Foe

It's One Shot time!

Internet friends

Far and wide

Bring a smile to my face

A tear to my eye

With me

What you see is what you get

No need to embellish

Like others I've met

Ego maniacs

Drama queens

Who knows what lurks

Behind those screens

Foes keep your distance

Stay away

My time's for friends

Who live for today

I've been having a fun, busy time with Whitesnake. See you tomorrow for an update.

Santa Claus

Here's my contribution to One Shot. Merry Christmas to all my One Shot friends.

Early to bed

Anticipate the dawn

No thoughts of our Saviour

Or the day he was born

Tossing and turning

No sleep to be had

Excitement is growing

Driving me mad

Peer through the curtains

Searching the sky

Hoping perchance

I'll see him fly by

Squeals of delight

He surely has been

Little sis impatient

To share what she's seen

Skip through the kitchen

Crumbs left on his plate

Gifts galore surprise me

Santa was definitely worth the wait

Sweet Surrender

Here's my contribution to One Shot Wednesday. If you have a poem you'd like to share, post it to your blog and leave your link over at One Shot.

The first time they talked,

her heart skipped a beat.

Something about him,

made her complete.

He belonged to another

but still wanted her.

Conflicting emotions,

her mind a blur.

She turned to another,

to dull the pain.

Her heart objected,

again and again.

She acknowledged her heart,

lost her fear.

Sweet surrender,

choices clear.

I wrote this poem after Whitesnake and I met, we were both in marriages with other people and it was a very confusing time. Every time I look at this photo (which was taken the first week we met face-to-face), I  see how we look like we belong together already.

The Course Of True Love

Here's my contribution to Carry On Tuesday....visit Me Keith to join in the fun and games.  I've also entered this into Potery Potluck (which I'm way too late for) and One Shot (which I'm way too early for). I don't usually do the triple entry post kinda thing but I wanted to get organised and save a bit of time so I can spend the next couple of days with my darlin' Whitesnake.

The course of true love

never did run smooth

In the early days,

Mum never approved

Married young,

did what was expected

Left me worn out

and feeling neglected

Older and wiser,

second time around

My course is complete,

true love I have found.

I'll be back later with an update on my progress on 30 days to a happier, healthier me. Until then...hope you're all as lucky in love as we are.

Last Chance

Here's my contribution to One Shot.

Early years, caring for others,

casting her needs aside.

Mind and body in their prime,

ticking clock far from her mind.

His relief, as each month passes,

her desperation hidden inside.

Brimming with wisdom, bursting with love,

she welcomes her second chance.

But her body grows weak, time marches on,

Mother Nature will finally decide.

Whitesnake's One Shot is here

Have a great day/night all.

Love Isn't Easy

Here's my contribution to One Shot. I wrote this one a couple of years ago. Looking back at it now makes me realise how far I have come in a few short years. Loving myself is much easier than it was back then.

Emotional uncertainty lurks inside.
Laughter erupts as tears subside.
High maintenance emotionally.
Isn't easy loving me.



Questions raised at every move.
Much to gain, more to lose.
I need you now! No, let me be.
Isn't easy loving me.



Crazy stories, out of the blue.
Thoughts I share, amusing you.
More inside than what you see.
Isn't easy loving me.



Laughing and loving, what I do best.
Others come first but the real test.
Loving myself will set me free
but, it isn't easy loving me

The Other Side

Here's my contribution to One Shot.

Two sides
to every story
One party
strives for glory

Emotional blackmail
confuses the heart
Constant control
keeps you apart

Deceit and lies
become the heroes
Empathy and love
totaling zero

The battle is short
one side victorious
But life is long
people are curious

Another scenario
begins to unfold
The true story
finally told

My darlin' Whitesnake's One Shot is here

Have a great day/night

Beginnings

Here's my poem for One Shot. Hope you likey.

Beginnings are so wonderful
The spirit soars, the heart is full
Hard times and worries melt away
Thinking of him gets me through the day



Romantic music, candles and flowers
Staying in bed, talking for hours
Sleepless nights just being together
You know that this will last forever



I wonder when we begin to forget
Those special feelings when we first met
Time is spent surviving the daily muddle
Who has the time or energy to cuddle



But I love him more and more each day
I know we'll survive, we'll find a way
So I'll think back to the first time we kissed
And know time spent together is not to be missed

Don't worry all is good in the KB and Whitesnake world. This is about a relationship I tried really hard to make work but in the end, it just wasn't meant to be.

I'll be back later with Walkabout Wednesday

Be Afraid, Be Very Afraid

Here's my contribution to Carry On Tuesday, brought to us by the Charming Mr Keith. and I'm using the same poem for One Shot Wednesday this week.

If I should die, think only this of me

If you treated me badly

 

I'll return to haunt you

 

Relentlessly

 

 
 
 
I have to go now...I'm scared looking at that Halloween pic of myself, hehe!
