I wonder






Lying in bed i listened to the rain fall down on the roof, the room was completly dark besides the gleam of the kitchen light down the hall. 'It's so dark i murmurmed to myself"
Pulling back the curtain the street was coated in a glissering coat of rain, each house lay still, quiet, content. I rose up looking down at my wolley bed socks looked at the time and realised it was 6, it was so dark today.
I began to think of last night and the magical moon i had seen whilst going for a walk to the beach, it was spectacular, large, speckled, the dark clouds were covering it made it even more beautiful to bear, but as i overlooked the water, dark waves rolling in, the sand still from the days doings, i again came back to a point that never ceases to leave me, how lucky are we, how beautiful is nature.
When you have a long day, or things just dont work out, it is nature that if raining, if snowing, if night or day remains a unforgetable reminder of how infanitly grateful we should be.
I know look forward to my day ahead, with that sweet reminder etched into my mind,
'I wonder what the moon will look like tonight?

Brown Penny

I whispered, 'I am too young,'

And then, 'I am old enough';

Wherefore I threw a penny

To find out if I might love.

Go and love, go and love, young man,

If the lady be young and fair.'

Ah, penny, brown penny, brown penny,

I am looped in the loops of her hair.

O love is the crooked thing,

There is nobody wise enough

To find out all that is in it,

For he would be thinking of love

Till the stars had run away

And the shadows eaten the moon.

Ah, penny, brown penny, brown penny,

One cannot begin it too soon.


Brown Penny by William Bulter Yeates.

Poems are always so delightful to read, they make you feel a bundle of emotions all at once. Ah, love, to love and be loved.

Yellow Daisies


hello earth,
i have a bouquet of yellow daisies
they smell pretty
just like mother nature.
sometimes i can see more clearly than normal,
'be that self which one truly is' -Soren Kierkegaard

'all i can do is be me, whatever that is.' -Bob Dylan.

a fool to ask for more




Tonight I am content, an empty house, a cold chill running through the walls, yet I have a warm weariness from the day spent with family sharing splendid thoughts and dreams, running around playing with my nephew, searching endlessly for secret hiding places, lying around in the sun. When at the end of the day they go, yet at the next dawn there will be more of these memorizing times, and so one must go on living, I ask the earth…how could I want anything more…

It takes so little

'It takes so little to make people happy. Just a touch, if we know how to give it, just a word fitly spoken, a slight readjustment of some bolt or pin or bearing in the delicate machinery of a soul.'-Frank Crane.

Night Wind








Sweet Dreams, sleep and awake feeling peace.
So beautiful tonight, rain, breeze, leaves, tea, music and candles.

A memory that turns gold with time
Like an autumn leaf
gently falling in your dreams
A heart yearns, a soul ebbs and flows
A dream becomes a reality
Only to discover that reality is a dream
