Tucked away in a tiny box
Except for once a year
My little golden heart
On Valentine's Day does appear
...
Arriving at the airport by rail or by car
To depart on a journey to lands afar
Luggage all tagged and documents cleared
Time for security check like cattle are steered
...
The middle-aged man's wife has gone
Seeking solace from another man
Erratic behaviour she could take no more
Weeping silently she closed the door
...
Our online friends touch us daily
From different walks of life
Enveloping us with warmth and kindness
To ease the pain and strife
...
Tranquility of the cherry blossom
Beautiful lady sits pensively
Whiling away the hours
Contemplating her destiny
...
Aromatic flavour of the spices
Curry lovers to thyself be true
Keep a glass of water at the ready
It may just be vindaloo
...
No one can put themselves
Into another person's shoes
Only they know how they fit
In the battle of the blues
...
Butterflies roam free
wildflowers they do seek
alighting each delicate petal
on which to rest their tiny feet
...
Our little corner of the world
In which to find inner peace
A private retreat to disappear
Relaxing the mind stress decreased
...
They congregate at the local pub
Each and every Saturday night
Break in routine from stressful week
Creatures of habit seeking respite
...
