HI EVERY ONE I RECEIVE THE MAGAZINE 'HEART MATTERS ,REALLY DO HAVE TO SHARE THIS WITH YOU ALL .
A GREMLIN IN THE ENGINE ROOM .
THERE'S A GREMLIN IN THE ENGINE ROOM,SILENT AND UNSEEN.
MEDDLING WITH THE MECHANISM OF THIS MARVELLOUS MACHINE
HE'S JIGGLING WITH THE JOY STICK.,SPEEDING UP AND SLOWING DOWN.
LIKE A ROLLER COASTER JOKER OR A CALCULATING CLOWN .
I'M SETTING TRAPS TO CATCH HIM , THEY'RE SMALL AND ROUND AND WHITE .
I FEEL THE BATTLE RAGING WHILE I LIE AWAKE AT NIGHT,
HIS MISSION IS ALL MISCHIEF ,WHILE MY MISSION IS TO SNARE ,
I KNOW HE'D LIKE TO BREAK MY HEART BUT HE IS UNAWARE ,
THAT SOON THERE WILL BE NOWHERE HE CAN RUN AND HE CAN HIDE ,
IMMOBILISED HEARTBROKEN, WITH HIS SCHEMING CAST ASIDE.
WITH THE MECHANISM STEADIED,THE FEAR WILL FADE AWAY,
A TRIUMPH FOR THE SCIENCE GIFTING ME ANOTHER DAY ,
.
THIS WAS ENTERED IN A COMPETITION IN THE HEART MAGAZINE BY VIVIEN RICHARDSON ..
