The Puzzle of Life
~
Life is a convoluted puzzle
Way beyond our comprehension,
Links within links,
Clues within clues,
Seemingly straightforward
But curved just out of sight
So that the pieces never fit
And nothing is what it seems,
Or the pattern repeats
‘til we think we know where it leads
And the ground falls away
Beneath our feet.

Sidey’s weekend challenge: 12.11.2010 – Famous Last Words
(Not so) Famous Last Words
»
Sitting relaxed in the lounge
Reading the Sunday papers
My father called out,
“Shush, not so much noise,”
To his second wife,
Working in the garden.
To which she replied,
“I suppose if I stop breathing,
It will still be too much noise for you.”
Hearing a crash, he looked up
And there she was,
Lying flat on her back,
Dead from a brain haemorrhage
A passing doctor confirmed.

Pain (b)
.
a sword pierced my heart
with hurt so deep
cruel words cut
right into my soul
there is no salve
no healing balm
to soothe the sting
or staunch the blood

An Apology to Mother Earth
~
We have failed you,
Mother Earth,
And continue on
This path of destruction
Despite warnings
And calamities.
Blindly, we refuse to change,
Thinking we have
All the time in the world
To make sacrifices for you.
We have emptied your coffers,
Dried up your waters,
Desiccated your forests.
We think we are gods
Who will live forever
After you are dead.

Surfing in Outer Space
~∞∞∞~
In my dreams at night
I take a great delight
Surfing in outer space.
No boundaries are there
As far as I’m aware
And I’m totally alone
In a black invisible sea.
Manoeuvring my spaceboard
I use my strength of mind
To leave my mass behind.
Left or right, up or down,
Planets, suns and moons,
Whole galaxies go by,
Swooping down a wormhole
And out the other side,
No energy expended,
No barriers extended,
Free, free to be me.

Who ARE You?
the pain
indescribably deep
when
open, honest
kind and considerate
becomes
mean spirited
selfish and devious
my eyes were opened
to the stranger within
when circumstances
challenged and changed
someone I thought I knew
disappointment
distress and regret
pain I will never forget
do we all have a secret self
hidden from the outside world

Bad Boys
♥♥♥
Bad boys drew me
Like a moth to a flame,
Chatter and banter
The name of the game.
Exciting, enticing,
Teasing and joking,
Vying for attention,
Heart throbs aplenty,
Too many to mention.
But on the other side
Of the great divide
The good boys,
Mother’s choice,
Far from being dull,
Were the devious,
Hazardous, perilous,
Menaces.

Sidey’s Weekend Challenge: 05.11.2010 – Innocence
Innocence
Toilet training
Two innocent pups
Taking them outside
On to the grass
Using the word
Decided upon
Pee, wee, widdle or piddle
They smelled the grass
And smelled the flowers
They smelled the soil
And chased each other
Across the lawn
Round and round
Up and down
Eventually giving up
I went indoors
To the toilet myself
Sat on the seat
And glanced up to see
Two little angels
Squatting on the toilet floor
And looking up at me
With big grins and innocent eyes
Waiting for praise
Parents take heed
Your children will do as you do
And not as you say!
I don’t know whether anyone else has had this experience, but I found it so comical and so frustrating. There they were, trying their utmost to please me. But they wouldn’t go to the toilet outside – only when I went and WHERE I went.
