Shin-rin Yoku Too!
Sun bathing
One tends to get a nice tan
To much sun
One goes lobster!
Shin-rin Yoku (tree bathing)
I spent to long under the leaves
And turned green!
this experience
Left me feeling jaded!

Stumped
I was going to write a poem about Donald Trump
Someone i'd like to thump
But would rather have a dump
But not as plump
As that fat lump
I wish he'd take a flying jump
And hit the earth with a massive bump
As all his lies are soon gazumped
That chump Trump stumped

Rainbows (Acrostic)
Rainbows arc across the sky
Are beautiful, wonderful, and noticeably shy
Instantly magical, and a little surreal
Now they come in the shape of half a wheel!
Because rainbows have been around since times of old
Of tales, at rainbows ende, lies a pot of gold
Wonderful arrayS of colours, that pirouette
So: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet

Troth!
"I promise to tell the truth
The whole truth
And nothing but the truth
So help me god!"
So how does this work?
If you don't have any god
Does that therefore
Leave the assumption
That you may not be telling the truth?
So if i tell the truth
Without the validation
Of having a god behind it
Am i therefore likely to be lying?
We encourage our children
To always speak the truth
And to be honest
"MUM! why's that man only got one leg!!!!2
So now, you have to teach your child
Diplomacy, and tact ...
The whole truth
And nothing but the truth
So help me god!"

A Bit Player In A Wayward Dream
I sometimes wonder
Whether
I'm just a figment
Of someone else's imagination
A non-existence
A bit player, in a wayward dream
I'm only real
Because the dramer perceives me as real
Therefore, i'm left questioning my own existence
Living within another surreality
Perhaps i'm a fairy
That believes in humans
But sees them as alien creatures
My ethereal escape
With wings
To float on the breezes
Thus avoiding the tempestuous storms
That lurk within the teacups of doubt
Of the nightmarish...

Who'd composed.

For a tenor
"Blimey!"
thought i
"They should of
come to me
I would of done it
for a fiver!"
(feeling composed....)

X Axed
Ironic
That the letter X
As the first letter
Is hardly x-rated
It's use now
Seems a little dated
Xanadu, and xylophone
No longer alone
Could easily begin with an S
And x-ray, and x-rated
Soon to be ex-rated
Without excess
Now the ex x

The Paper Dragon
The Paper Dragon
Sits by my windowsill
Glancing forever skywards
Cursing the curse
That turned her to paper
As her story, lies writ
Upon her paper wings
Charcoaled memories
Etched, and ingrained
Then stained, in distain
She flies into a raging fire
To die
A dragons death

Not Dead Yet!
Today, on the last day of January, about 15 minutes ago
I felt my heart begin to slow
After palpitations, and much sweat
And lots of retching, but not finished yet
Taken aspirin, and bisoprolol heart meds
Asi sit here upon my (death) bed
Ever aware of my mortal coil
Awaiting my time beneath the soil
Had the same, only worse
Was my christmay day morning curse
I hope can understand, and clearly see
Why i didn't want to spend 'This' day at A&E
So i took my chances, and stayed in my flat
Then fell asleep, where...

Recipricate?
Chop sticks
Are okay as back scratchers
Not as good as rubbing up against a tree
Like a bear!
But i'm seeking alternative means
For scratching my back
So ive joined a dating site
Where-in i state
"If you scratch my back......!"
Ive received one response so far
"So if you have pets, it may be fleas!"

Abide Within My Abode
at a whim, well seemingly so
i decided to maybe tidy up
my abandoned ramshackle abode
ive inherited a rug, hence this ode
(i'm making it up as i type!)
I placed it over the dull carpet
A sullen hue of magnolia
Of various shades of greeny ectoplasm
And anything that rhymes with magnolia?
(quickly googles magnolia!)
And ended up in Mongolia
At this point
I have obviously lot the plot
Inspired perhaps
By a little mead
Just a few goblets, not a lot!
(I would say that!)
As i quietly lose the plot (repetition! ...
