And now we're here
In the new year
Don't shed a tear
Or disappear
...
I was at my art class studying shading
When a stranger caught my eye
They seemed to be doing their best evading
Glances from passers by
...
Now Christmas card writing I have Begun
So I get my pen and start card number one:
‘Merry Christmas to all that you hold dear
And the warmest of wishes for the new year
...
The world was burning
Our race stopped learning
And she just smiled
Life seemed more hard
...
You think you know your body, that it has no more tricks
You’re used to the aches and pains, the cracks, pops and clicks
Then it does something extra, just to keep you on your toes
A random twitch or spasm that out of nowhere grows
...
It’s easy to make if you have the knack
It’s terrific to give and better to get back
It’s priceless and free and worth the world
It’s warm and friendly and slightly curled
...
A few days back, almost a week
I found something I thought unique
It was an object small and rare
I’d never seen one anywhere
...
Three dozen spiders gathered round for their annual meeting
‘We must elect a new leader as the time we have is fleeting’
Sam, who hungered for the job was waiting out the back
About to tuck into two juicy flies for a quick snack
...
While walking along with my aunt one day
She had her new hat on display
It was bright and blue with swirls and a bow
As we walked the wind started to blow
...
I’ve got all the latest gadgets, all the games and toys surround me
My Wii, X-box and Playstation all set out uniformly
A whole wall full of DVD’s, several racks full of CD’s,
Reclining electric vibrating chair to tilt and put me at ease
