Eyes

Eyes

Our lens on life they see so much

Each blink takes a new snap

Important though each night we must

Give them a long good nap

Though even when we’re fast asleep

And fairies work away

We see so much with other eyes

The day’s events replayed

In those we love and care about

They sparkle brightly so

Their diamonds twinkle graciously

We see their hearts which glow

And if we’re feeling sad and glum

And can’t express our thoughts

Our eyes can rain and call for help

To say we’re out of sorts

They say so much about us all

A view into our souls

Be sure to see all that you can

From these two special holes

Autocorrect

Autcorrect

So here is a poem about auto correct

You’ll probably tell me it’s crib

But that’s your opinion I really don’t cure

You’re welcome to think I’m a nib

You see my fine fellows, we all love to sew 

Our phones making funny migrates

But on with the snow, I must get a ho

Cos I know you all think it’s a trait

Since I started this work just give minutes app

And I really wish that I harpoon

Yes I know you’re all worried that this thing will just drag

Could be said that these lines just dragoon

And although too Confucius and this thing should bend

As the the cock shall soon stroke midnight

Think we all can agree, though as best as I’ve tried

That this poem is pretty web site

Dream Fairies

Dream Fairies

They hide away all small and quiet

And wait for suns to set

But only these small ones do know

Which dreams that we shall get

Each night when we’re all tucked up snug

They climb inside our minds

And set about to do their work

And make us dream all kinds

They’re sometimes nice and sometimes not

But jobs they have to do

The fairies of the dreaming state

Will sort a hitch or two

They fly around inside our minds

To file away our thoughts

It’s just like when your laptop makes

All of those ones and noughts

So sleep tonight and let them work

They know just what to do

Dream fairies off you go to work

Another day is new

It's Those Little Things

It's Those Little Things

I see a red which fills your cheeks

It’s really rather sweet

It’s clear which words you want to say

But your lips do retreat

But do not fear my darling one

I know already so

Your actions say it every day

That’s why inside I glow

On those bad days where I feel fat

And feel I look a mess

I find a note inside my coat

“You look great in that dress!”

Or when I send a text to you

Of one word which says “yawn”

You know just what that means to me

Arrive home bath is drawn

Those little things you do for me

They speak to me much more

Because I know inside of you

Your love for me it roars

Morning Cuddles

Morning Cuddles

The sunshine hugs my window frame

A morning glow she grows

The light it trickles all around

Your scent fills up my nose

I feel your warmth against my skin

A sense of great content

Each moment that we lay right here

My love for you cements

The tickle of your eyes lashes

Send tingles down my spine

I’m happy as I’ve ever been

And so glad that you’re mine

Our chests they rise and fall as one

Which shows that we’re in sync

I never want this time to end

That’s something that I think

Our morning hugs my favourite thing

I have all that I wish

There’s no-one on this earth you know

With whom I’d rather squish

Long Distance Love

Long Distance Love

Although our two hearts may be far

And our hugs are apart

I can’t wait ‘til the Skype ring sounds

So our chat can now start

It’s not ideal but most things aren’t

So make the best we shall

Cos this is still a chance for me

To be with my best pal

It can frustrate when breaks occur

And some sounds get missed out

But then you’ll pull a face for me

And do your sexy pout

There’s cards and gifts and notes we send

I love to hear that sound

Reverberates my letterbox

Your love lands on my ground

I can’t wait ‘til we meet again

To hold your hand so tight

If it’s online, by text or phone

Our love shall still shine bright

Despair of the Black Dog

Despair of the Black Dog

I’m scared the time won’t come back

Where my face shall paint a smile

I wouldn’t wish on my worst foe

In my shoes walk one mile

The fog that gets inside your mind

And flows into all spots

Its reach just eats away at you

And makes you lose the plot

And often too the fog shall sink

Right down into all bones

To make you feel or not at all

Each movement comes with groans

You’ll have regrets and tell yourself

That you’re just worthless dirt

And that it’s right that you should feel

All of this pain and hurt

You’ve failed that’s it there’s no more hope

Is what your brain shall say

But somehow I must let myself

Think there’s a better day

My Special One

My special one

My sunshine when it’s raining

My light when it gets dark

I know that if the floods should come

You’d be my Noah’s ark

The notes in all the great songs

Your soul sings out to me

It’s since that I have been with you

My heart just feels set free

You are that special thing to me

When rain falls on dry ground

Your giggle but a work of art

That is my favourite sound

I am to you and you’re to me

My lobster this is true

A picture of what love should be

It’s something that we drew

Each morning when I wake up

And see it's not a dream

I’m so glad that it’s me and you

Who make up this great team

First Date

First Date

For ages you know,

I’ve been waiting for this,

I’m secretly hoping,

I may get a kiss,

I’m nervous tonight, 

As I’ve been waiting for,

The chance to be your guy, 

And open the door,

My palms are so sweaty,

And heartbeat is raised,

Spellbound by your beauty, 

I’m actually dazed,

I wonder if you know,

That when you’re with me,

That there is just no place,

That I’d rather be,

I hope they’ll be more dates,

Where I win the prize,

To look at this sparkle,

I see in your eyes.

Penistone

Penistone

The poems of three remembered right here

The parkland and river are found at the rear

There’s Shelley, there’s Keats and there’s Tennyson too

As trains cross the bridge all aboard now choo choo

The film buffs are out there to see’s paramount

The number of threats to this place lost count

As Thursday arrives so the stalls are laid out

With plenty of bargains for you to check out

The pick of the stores from the Co-op to Spar

The view from up Hartcliffe does stretch very far

The schools have sure changed some since I did go there

But stays in the centre the church for some prayer

And then comes the winter there’ll be snow for sure

The landscape in white though it gives more allure

This cute place in Yorkshire a jewel in the crown

The locals all know it as their Penistown

"Hello"

"Hello"

I came and saw you sitting there

While thousands did walk past

I knew at once when I saw you

I’ve found my one at last

Was it your eyes or your sweet smile

That made me sigh out loud?

I’d like the chance if you’d let me

To show you why I’m wowed

For me it’s hard to say “Hello”

I’m sure my face is red

I hope one day you’ll hold my hand

On newly paths we’ll tread

I realised that my choice was right

When you joined in with me

To point out why that thing is daft

Our mouths light up with glee

I’m so glad that I listened to

My heart which did convince

To take a chance and just say “hi”

Now proud to be your prince
