Love overdrawn

Alone together


Together alone


​Living in parallel 


A house not a home


Meeting and parting


Drifting along


Communication sporadic


Love overdrawn


Small acts of kindness


Oil life’s wheels 


Misunderstandings


Divisions reveals


Resigned to the status quo


Or the status quo resigned


Which is the easiest


Need to decide


Alone Together


Together alone


Is the grass greener


Than this loveless home

Islands in the stream. 

​Islands in the stream


Changed by the waters flow


Bedrock held in place


As dreams and illusions bow

Life frenetically moves


Even on a leisurely day


The island in the stream


A refuge, a place to stay

When I navigate rough seas


My beliefs in a bag I store


Surreal my dreams might be


But part of my steel and core

The island in the stream


A place that’s truly mine


Keeps my sanity intact


Come visit and view my shrine

Feelings

​Feelings


For You


Just get better

Love


Longing strong


Red letter day

Friendship


Firmly Grasped


Strong bonds stay

Partnership


Particular trust


Together we should stay

Static place

Suspended in a silent pause

Whilst life is rushing by

At rest against surreal shores

Beneath a perspex sky


Create a world that stands alone

Amidst the frenzied pace

From dented dreams and illusions thrown

To form a static place


Existance in a different realm

While chaos spins around

Where placidness is at the helm

On enigmatic ground

Reality or dream

​Is life reality or is it a dream


Do we play to our own tune, or is it what it seems


Is our life already mapped


Or do we choose our own path, find adversity and adapt 


Ride the rapids on a raft

Are we powerless a victim to every happen chance


Or can we make those changes, in lifes Jerky  dance


Will true love be our saviour


Probably not, but it can modify our behaviour 


Make us fly on the up draft

When you walk by my side


Both the ups and the downs, are a roller coaster ride


Of excitement and burn, some great extremes


Is life reality or is it a dream


A mixture of both with you it seems!

Soapy

​Soapy and wet


Anticipating yet 


Letting go of control


Pleasure our goal 


Shower pulses


Spray convulses


Against our bodies


Tattoing ecstasies


Fingers slide 


Probe and glide


Building urges 


Feeling surges


Languous heat


Sinuous beat

Lots of time


It took lots of my life


To find my way


To understand the me inside


To do a complete survey


Why wasn’t I taught to respect myself


To set a ticket price, off the bargin shelf


……..

It took lots of time


To move from shyness


To understand that I could shine


That as a person I could be desirous


Why wasn’t I taught confidence


How to ride the knocks, retain my cognisance 


……….


It took much less time to research beliefs


To find the things that were, self confidence thiefs


To understand to be fulfilled


I needed to find my passions slip the leash


Why wasn’t I taught happiness comes from within


It’s not dependant on someone else’s whim


………..

Luckily I found the way


No time to regret the wasted years


Time to revel in the chance to be totally and truly me today.

My first Sidlak poem

​Sidlak poetry (sid/lak) is a structured poetry consisting of 5 lines with 3-5-7-9 syllables AND A COLOR. The last line must be a COLOR that describes the whole poem or the feelings of the writer. Life comes in different shades and hues. The colorful the merrier. Show us your true colors. Write your first sidlak now. Love,  Quirky​

I like this idea on Quirky Shines Blog ….Love Quirky. So this is my first Sidlak, would anyone like to add one

Stormy sky above


Stormy mood between us


Sparks and angst, insults trading 


Trust has flown, feels degrading


Need to find a starting point,regroup

The trials and tribulations of writing that book

​Putting the words on the paper


That was an easy caper


The flow of ideas


The protagoniststs fears


The plot that was not


The plan that was shot


The breaking of rules


Maybe created by fools


That was an easy caper

The novel soon grew


In chapters woo hoo


I wrote as I spoke


Great bursts sent to choke


Punctuation and grammar


Were  under the hammer 


My characters changed


Took liberties unarranged 


That was an easy caper

A book near complete


Wow what a feat


Joy unabated


Editing complicated


Frowns replaced smiles


Changes by the miles


I changed that last week


How come, oh bleep


That was a harder caper

Cutting and editing twenty times


Face now covered in big frown lines


Cover designed


Smiles realigned


Put it together


Loosen the tether


Off to be printed


Proof newly minted


That was a joyous caper

I had put the words on paper


In all a difficult caper


Now to relax 


Till fates circumstance


Showed me the promotional forargo 


If I wanted to shift the cargo


I needed to add some glitter


Use resources like Facebook and Twitter


This was a learning caper

Now my days spent tweeting


In between comfort eating


I write religiously on my blog


It’s become a full time job


My sales are hardly booming


It’s really quite confusing


Where do I find the time to write


I have to sleep some time at night


This is a time consuming caper

I am learning much


Wish I had a big crutch


More hours in the day


To write and make hay


Putting the words on paper


That was the easy caper


As for the rest


It’s like swotting for a test


Masses of work 


That you can’t shirk 


A sale makes a smirk


Could send one berserk


Not such an easy caper.

Softness

​Softness in abundance, as great as the sun


Delicate touches, like spiders webs spun


Excitement grows at the dawn of each day


Emotions overflow, with each interplay


Giving all of me, Giving all of you
