thinking aloud

Work work always slaving away only doing it for the pay.
Tell me! I need to save , what chance say I, there always bills to pay.
There are so many who want a piece of my wage.
As every thing goes up I have very little left.
A good example of this is pay monthly
in advance of the quarterly bill that way you'll have enough .
when theres more they keep it, when theres not, they take more each month.
and who get the interest on this not me thats for sure.
Worrying enough while I'm working, but I have no idea what happens when I retire

long tail tit


I was watching all around, as seven or eight
of these little fellows fly from tree to tree,
their constance chitter chatter makes it
hard to pin down exactly where they land
as they quickly move on to the next branch.
just by chance this one landed in front of me,
I raised the camera to my eye,
not quite ready he flew straight at me,
so I just clicked away and hope for the best ,
so as you see the focus is a bit out.
[better luck next time]

me knees

Hi there, I'm a cricket and I just like to say.
I wish I could sing a song ,instead of bashing
my knees together all day long .
But there I am what I am and the beat goes on.
Click click clicking till me knees get sore.

spider





Little spider sitting in the sun, taking a rest before you spin a new web.
Using your special way to catch your prey so that you may live another day.
A web for me to see, I marvel at the trigonometry of the silky thread.
Yet little spider I've never heard you laugh and I've never seen you cry.

holiday blight

Off on holiday in daddy's new four by four , a big black car with everything.
Sat-nav to show you the way, dvd players behind every seat.
Black out windows so no-one sees in ,cool inside with air conditioning .
Baggage and suitcases all pile in, mum and dad in front, kids in the back.
Dad drives fast showing off the new car, mums asleep,children watch a dvd.
Nobody sees the country side ,towns and special places.
Arrive at hire cottage for one week .
Dad rushes in,I'm tired! closely followed by the children who fight over
which room to sleep in, while mums still bringing everything in.
Dad says when are we going to eat , mums rushed off her feet.
Children fighting again , wanting to plug the play station in.
Dads had enough and gone to bed children fight some more,
there getting bored and mums on the paracetamol.
The cottage owner passes by ,is everything alright!
Mum chats for ten minutes maybe more , owner goes away, enjoy your stay!
And they did ,never went out, never saw the beauty all around.
Play station, t v and laptop, always on , don't want to get the car dirty
while they are away.
Time to go, that week went quick, its your mothers fault she aways sick.

till night


You burst in with firer y reds and yellow glows, turning darken skies to all shades of blue.
Traveling through the day,warming and smiling all the way.
Then slowly you sink away, leaving the clouds to reflect the oranges, reds, pinks and greys
reminding me, its the end to a pleasant day.

I thought you said no-one wants to look at us,
just shows how wrong you can be.
well I an't stopping now !!

IT JUST CAME TO ME

I AWOKE TO A SOUND DOWNSTAIRS ,
IN THE DARKNESS I SLIP FROM THE BED,
MY HAND FEELING FOR MY GOWN ,
IT MUST BE HERE SOME WHERE,
AS I WALK INTO THE DOOR.

MY BIG TOE STRUCK IT FIRST .
AS I RAISED MY LEG I CRACK MY HEAD
HOW I SWORE .

LEAVING THE BEDROOM, GOWN HALF ON,
THE BELT DRAGGING ON THE FLOOR.
I TRIP AND FALL ,THEM STAIRS ARE STEEP YOU KNOW!
I HEAR A NOISE ,STAND STILL OR I'LL BLOW YOUR HEAD OFF.
I ANSWER I WISH YOU WOULD.
IT HURTS LIKE HELL.

TV REMOTE LAYS ON FLOOR THE TV PLAYS A FILM FROM
BEFORE THE WAR.

stewing

Help! help! the human cry the poor need to be satisfied .

Who are the poor in the western world .
Is it those who choose to leave their home at young age,
to live on the streets of big cities .
Or those who travel from town to town, taking the things that don't belong to them.
When the trust has all but gone, I find it hard to believe anyone.
As why we need the word poor, for its does not really sum up : POOR PEOPLE.
We all make a life for our selfs . If I can't afford it I go without.
If I don't eat , thats my fault , If I don't work I don't get paid.
I don't steal the things I would like to have .
Your riches are your life so get satisfied
If you wish to waste it don't burden us with your lies,
to cheat your way to get a high.
Why should I work while you doss.
Join you, no thanks I'VE GOT PRIDE

bleak times ahead

A world without beauty as the carbon fallout sucks the color in the same way, man has destroyed the ocean's sea life .
Who's listening to those who know.
Do we really think we can change what we have done,
we have too I'm sure if we wish to carry on
