A stormy night The wind is whistling round the walls, Rain is rattling on the roof, Leaves are rustling, rushing around, Sweeping the windows, Brushing the ground. Thump, thwack! What was that? Twigs cracking, snapping, spit spat. Branches bending, creaks, groans, Something sighing and gentle moans. It's like being adrift on a stormy sea. Who put this caravan under a tree? ... Read more

Morecambe Bay When it is sunny, A place of shimmering sands and sparkling sea. Beautiful! When it is cloudy Shadowy sands and whispering water. Mysterious! When it is dark or foggy, Sinister sands and swift, surrounding sea. Deadly! Beware - many lives have been taken here even in recent years. ... Read more

Dedicated to my mother who has Vascular Dementia So much and for so long You gave me so freely Brought me into this world And showed me the way How to step up and branch out To know right from wrong You sang me my very first memorable song Showed me with patience how to draw Tended my cuts when they were sore Took me to exciting new places And so I grew You were my role model Never selfish...

For every hero standing tall, who's faced a mammoth feat There will be a mum who's cleaned the stairs, who won't admit defeat For every time you read a tale of victory and gain There is a person trying hard to work despite the pain The stories are of fighting through, of courage and success But who's to say that day-to-day you've managed any less I've pushed a pushchai...

The poem pretty much explains the pair of black eyes My father had: What was I thinking of? That damned pesky crow. Eating from my table? I won't have it. No! I would have had it too, Right there within my jaws. If only I'd remembered, To open the patio doors. Helen Morton ... Read more

'Oh' busy me, busy me, busy me deep. So I can't see what Kraft will reep. The bottom line was never so sweet. Before they jumped in with both feet. The men with shares were just like sheep. They went and sold for too cheap. To that women from Kraft, she must be daft. She's taken our choc & put it in Hock. The goof choc market lies in his grave having lost to the great ... Read more

When spring is round the corner It makes me think - get things in order Watching buds push their way through the soil Making their way to daylight - is it much of a toil? I know that I would find it so Like going through winter, full of snow Not very nice, cold as ice, no sun, just moon Hope spring comes soon Is that how the flowers think? A race to the top, last one stinks! No, they all seem to... Read more
