Alison Gaff Poems

Its like the worlds stopped turning
Without you by my side
But then I look and wonder
At the changing countryside
...

Another of my favourites
Has to be the jay
Its call is very hard and harsh
But to hear it makes my day
...

Sunrise today was a colourful sight
But fast it faded to dingy light
Now underneath a leaden sky
One man and his dog jog by
...

Angles are always busy
Be it by day or night,
They clean and polish every star,
That's why they shine so bright.
...

Everywhere is dark and still
With nothing much to see
But as I turn the corner
The new moon does greet me
...

Its a mizzle, drizzle morning
Dark grey blanket clouds above
It really is quite miserable
Unless you are in love
...

The tower moat is poppy red
Representing all the blood they shed.
The boys and men who went to war,
The ones that died and are no more.
...

I miss you now that you're not here
I wish so much that you were near.
They say grief lessens every day,
But memories will forever stay.
...

Life can be so cruel and bring such sorrow
So we must live for today and hope for tomorrow
We've had good times and happy days
We've been so lucky in many ways
...

I'd like to think that all the stars
That twinkle high above
Are all our friends who've passed away
Sending down their love.
...
