Cocooned In Silk
One wild and wintry winter
He ventured to the wood
Guided only by the eerie moonlight
As he reached the spot,where a monster once stood
He called out "Oh monster!"
"Come to me forthwith"
"I wish to make a deal with you"
"That one day you may'st forgive"
He waited upon a mossy bank
Surrounded by frozen leaves
And within a moment of minutes
A loud crunching could be perceived
As he beckoned it even closer
He began to perceive its size
As wide as a felled oak tree ...
He ventured to the wood
Guided only by the eerie moonlight

He waited upon a mossy bank
Surrounded by frozen leaves
And within a moment of minutes

As he beckoned it even closer

As wide as a felled oak tree ...

Olarf The Reindeer
Olarf hadn't quite made the grade
To qualify as one of Santas reindeer
He was ill disciplined, mischievous, and cheeky
But not to any extremes
His sense of fun
Was just a little over the top
Such as the time he put custard in Santas boots
Or the time he put a whoopie cushion
On Mis Christnas's chair
Even Santa was seen to let out a small yo ho
And even if he'd only done these things
Just a few times a year
It wouldn't be so bad
But it was nearly every day
That he was pranking
In fact, only yesterday
He took all...

The Avenging Ghost
"Why did you run me over?"
But you say nothing as You examine my broken body
Lying on the lonely road
The driver speaks to the passenger Who is still in the car
He laughs like a man possessed "It's alright" he shouts
"Another victim to add to my list!" He laughs again
As he returns to his car, and drives off
I'm barely alive I somehow manage to cross the road
Towards the woods To hide, just in case he comes back
But i knew i was dying
My last living thoughts Who would look after my children?
I left...

Flaunting around…
I’m as astute as a flute
I’m as aware as a flare
I’m as obnoxious as a goat
Just to keep the world afloat!
I’m as bored as a bat
I’m filled with tat like your cat
And for a fact, I like rats
For their ticks, and their tacks
I’m as numb as a nun
I’m your chum, we have fun
I’m tweedle-dee
And you’re tweedle-dumb
I’m as aware as a flare
I’m as obnoxious as a goat
Just to keep the world afloat!
I’m as bored as a bat
I’m filled with tat like your cat
And for a fact, I like rats
For their ticks, and their tacks
I’m as numb as a nun
I’m your chum, we have fun
I’m tweedle-dee
And you’re tweedle-dumb

Are we lost in Tesco?
Are we lost in Tesco?
Or lost inside ourselves?
Are we lost in Tesco?
Or stuck between the shelves?
Are we lost in Tesco?
Or have we gone insane?
Are we lost in Tesco?
Or in the bin again?
Are we lost in Tesco?
Or have we fallen through space and time?
Are we lost in Tesco?
Yes we are and it’s sublime!
Or lost inside ourselves?
Are we lost in Tesco?
Or stuck between the shelves?
Are we lost in Tesco?
Or have we gone insane?
Are we lost in Tesco?
Or in the bin again?
Are we lost in Tesco?
Or have we fallen through space and time?
Are we lost in Tesco?
Yes we are and it’s sublime!

Monkey See, Monkey Do
Me, and my whole family
Had caught a virus
Many of us died
But those that survived
Were changed
Including myself
We found, that we were able
To communicate with one another
Like never before
And formed a language of sorts
We began making tools
And building makeshift shelters
Prefering these
To the trees
And none of the other families
Of our ilk
Had evolved like us
So we assumed
That we were the only ones that had changed
As i aged
I witnessed the dramatic changes
As the other families ...

Silly thoughts
I’d like to live in a box
With a pet fox
Never wear socks
And replace my brain with a clock
I’d like to steal a whole zoo
Lick both your shoes
Dance on the loo
And move to Peru with my new kangaroo
I’d like to build my own car
Travel to Mars
Smoke a cigar
And become one with the stars
With a pet fox
Never wear socks
And replace my brain with a clock
I’d like to steal a whole zoo
Lick both your shoes
Dance on the loo
And move to Peru with my new kangaroo
I’d like to build my own car
Travel to Mars
Smoke a cigar
And become one with the stars

Symphony of artichokes
As if it were about listening to sticks,
she swirled free over the pannels,
stormy in emerald bread.
The invisible notes rose in the air,
each soft chord eats the breeze,
echoing among the bestial flakes.
The sun, maestro, reacted to the spectacle,
painting eyes in tones of leather and flesh,
as he lassoed himself with the wind.
There in the hustle and bustle of heights,
the soul contracted its secret trespass,
woven between the ureter and the uterus.
she swirled free over the pannels,
stormy in emerald bread.
The invisible notes rose in the air,
each soft chord eats the breeze,
echoing among the bestial flakes.
The sun, maestro, reacted to the spectacle,
painting eyes in tones of leather and flesh,
as he lassoed himself with the wind.
There in the hustle and bustle of heights,
the soul contracted its secret trespass,
woven between the ureter and the uterus.

Mad, Or What?
So here i am again
Living within the mundane
Trying to remain sane
Hoping that the inane, won't turn me insane
I don a white coat, not a mac
This white coat, does up at the back
But it's only put on when i go quack
And a flibble, and a flobble, and a yackety yack
It appears to all intent, and purposes, that ive gone mad
Or is this just another fad
Or another weird dream that ive had
When i need more padding, on my pad
It wasn't long, before i grew palmed hair
As i began growling, like a bear
And laugh...

The Cow Cat (three letter words)
But how can you?
Pen the ode
Yes how?
Not now
The red cow
Moo, and moo
One! not two
Oaf!
Now set
One cow
New mew met
The sun
Was hot
And not
The cat
But out the cat ran
For sun tan
Fur now hot
Icy not
And cow moo
And cat mew
The cow cat
Two sat
Now one
Odd pet
Say you too
Moo mew
Not new
But now old
For one eon

The Fairy's Hornbeam Staircase
I had always wondered about the Hornbeam
That grew within a nearby park
Twas a wondrous magical tree
Especially under the moonlight, and the dark
And one such night i visited it
When the moon was full, and knowing
The fairy dust flew all around
As the tree began a-glowing
And from its base, a staircase formed
All bright, and shiny, and gold
It led up to its highest branches
A deep mystery to unfold
This profound vision, aroused my senses
As i proceeded to its base
And stepped upon the very first step ...
That grew within a nearby park
Twas a wondrous magical tree
Especially under the moonlight, and the dark
And one such night i visited it
When the moon was full, and knowing
The fairy dust flew all around
As the tree began a-glowing
And from its base, a staircase formed
All bright, and shiny, and gold
It led up to its highest branches
A deep mystery to unfold
This profound vision, aroused my senses
As i proceeded to its base
And stepped upon the very first step ...
