Not Quite A Hamadryad
Last Christmas
I considered
Wearing a small christmas tree
On my head!
So i could declare
"Look!"
"The christmas tree
Is on top of the fairy
This year!"
But didn't!

Love Is In The Heir!
Valentines Day
Is a very special day
For me this year
I'm kind of looking forward to it
And much good cheer
For upon this day
I receive my monthly pension pay!
How very romantic...well not exactly
However
My pension
Has proffered
To take me out on a date
And said it will pay!
As long as it's not

Sticks, & Stones (WWIIII?)
We haven't yet peaked
When it comes to mankinds brutal
And destructive nature
(No nurturing)
It's lurking
Like a ticking time-bomb
There'll be no theories
About this big bang
As there'll be no-one around
To theorise
Any survivors
Will be to busy fighting mini wars
To have time to think
And when all the ammunition runs out
Those remaining
Will have to make do
With sticks, and stones.....

That They're There
Me, and my ears
Have 'special' relationship
In as much, as weve agreed
That i don't look at them
And likewise
They've agreed
Not to look at me!
They justb lurk there
Beneath my hair
So i'm left knowing
That they're there
Always
Listening to my every word!
Not only walls have ears
So do heads!

The Shape Of It All
If
I were to be a shape
Then i would be a circle
As i love to get around
And have a ball
And be a balloon
Whoevers heard of square balloons?
Then again
Not many round kites around
Aeroplanes, and missiles
Are more pointy, and phallic shaped
So i'll stick with being a circle
Or perhaps a Myriagon!
(a 10,000 sided polygon!)

On A Train
Stations
Like time
Flashed past me
Small, hopeless habitats
Humdrum lego boxes
Built just the same
All betwixt
The occasional flash of nature
Beautifully intruding
Upon this otherwise
Grey landscape
Welcome to Londinium

Seeds Of Doubt
These seeds of doubt
Were planted
Everywhere!
Including
Window boxes
And hanging baskets!
Come the harvest
Doubt had flourished
Resulting in bumper crops
It was later suggested
That there was not one individual
Who didn't feel doubtful
So no-one doubted the seeds of doubt

A Royal Thrown!
Yesterday
My derriere
Became
My dire rear!
I sat upon
No stools
Just my throne
As my insides
Abdicated
No longer stone

Death Of A Butterfly
Memories of pre-flight meanderings
Living on a diet of jade
The long siesta, whilst encapsulated
Lost in dreams
Whilst awaiting a rebirth
Transformation
An awakening
Into flight
Light linen like wings
Floating on the breezes
FREEDOM!
No longer land-locked
Now fully evolved
And at her finest, and most beautiful
Supping upon natures nectar
My existence, although brief
Is one of awe, and wonder
As i taste the magic
Of my essence
As my wings become wind blown dust
Dissipating into the ether
As...

Holes
"So, young lady, you aim to tidy up your flat?"
"Yes indeed!" said i with great enthusiasm"
"Ive been planning it for years!"
"And hoping soon, that these plans will come into fruition!"
"Which in turn, will result in the much awaited tidy up!"
"I think your flat may need tidying down!"
I suddenly recognised this person, i hadn't seen him for a while
And had been wondering what on earth he was doing in my flat?
Then remembered, it was my landlord!

Better
to
break
wind
Than
an
oath,
or
a
trust
Unless
that
oath,
or
trust
Is
about
not
breaking
wind!
