(un) Lucky Leg
…
What will it be today,
Frumpin’ lumpin’ jumpin’ Jehosephat?
Twisting, turning, cramping, screaming…
Wanting freedom,
Heavy as a large salmon
In the bottom of the boat,
Threshing, thrashing,
Or heavy as lead,
Dead?
As a slab of meat,
Oven ready for the meal?
Or will you show your delicate side,
You Jezebel, born in hell,
Lead me up the garden path
Only to punish me with pain
Again!

Come and Dance with Me
~
Come and dance with me
Let us move to the music
As the tide draws the sea
Come and dance with me
‘Til we feel our hearts beating
In rhyme, yours and mine
Come and dance with me
Just you and I
Beneath a star-studded sky
With the moon riding high
And the man in the moon waves goodbye

Versatile Blogger’s Award
I have been given this award by Miss Whiplash and by Sonsothunder, but I am changing the rules somewhat. I am handing it to five good bloggers and will be telling you five things about myself (I’m not a very interesting person, lol).
1. I am a mother of two and a grandmother of four.
2. My grandchildren are (almost) grown up, i.e. they think they are, but they really aren’t.
3. I am living in the Care Centre of a Retirement Village – I am STILL learning to care for myself, lol!
4. I am a very spiritual person.
5. I have no idea how tall I am, probably a little over 5 ft, and I weigh, at a guess, somewhere around 55 kg.
and now for the lucky recipients:
1. Granny
3. Nancy
4. John
5. Carl
Congratulations you guys.
Much love.
Denise
Father forgive us
~
Father forgive us
We are destroying, and have destroyed
Eco systems which make life possible on earth
We have taken your gifts for granted
With no thought for tomorrow
We have enjoyed the abundance
Of the fruits of the earth
With selfishness, lack of consideration
Lack of forethought
And made assumptions
That the earth would sustain us forever
Father God we humble ourselves before you
In deepest humility
We beg your forgiveness
Please instill in us the will
To repair that which we have broken
To renew that which we have used
Asking only that you inspire us with your wisdom
To put things right

Happy Feet
Sidey’s Weekend Theme – 23.09.2011: Feet
~
I’ll sing you a song
To paint a smiley face
And you’ll sing along
To make this a happy place
~
We’ll clap our hands
And infect the whole world
As the beat of our feet
Makes the sound on the ground
Echo deep through the land
~
I’ll sing you a song
To paint a smiley face
And you’ll sing along
To make this a happy place

& for the latecomers:
Worlds
~
Infinitesimal
Worlds within worlds
Minuscule, microscopic
Indiscernible
Invisible to the naked eye
But certainly not
Insignificant nor inconsiderable
~
Are there then
Immeasurable
Worlds without worlds
Inestimable, colossal
Considerable
Infinite beyond measure
And certainly
Enormously significant

Beauty
~
There is beauty
In even the most
God forsaken
Desolation
Beauty in
The cold stark lines
Desert sands
Rocks exposed
Rainbow coloured
Layered bands
His mark is there
His name engraved
Etched in time
Emblazoned
In the sky
With every sunrise
Sunset
Giving the lie
He does not forsake
Abandon nor disown
His creations
His works of art
His magnum opus
~

I Saw
~
i saw a face
in my dream last night
a glimpse
an eye
anthropomorphic
androgynous
wise
kind
familiar
unwrapping my soul

Lonely
a-lone
as one
watching
listening
being apart
but not a-part
detach
un-attach
sole
soul
solitary
separate

I have no words…
Can the Somalian tragedy be changed into our greatest humanity?

I won’t be doing any more posts for a few days. I am fast running out of my gig allocation for the month :(
Roll on the time when I will be back on ADSL
