I’m writing a poem about my cat Lily
Sometimes she’s clever, sometimes she’s silly
She wakes me up in the middle of the night
Her face pressed to mine, it gives me a fright
All she wants is to go for a pee
But never considers how it affects me
Soon she’s back all curled up and cosy
But I’m wide awake and not very happy
One hour, two hours, three hours go by
At 5am I’m watching Quincy ME
All in all though I wouldn’t swap her
She’s my little sweetie and she knows I love her

I thought I’d write a little ode
But could not seem to find the CODE
I did not contact my other BLOGGER
And I do not know of any SCHOLAR
I think I’ll finish this little TOME
As I do not like to polish CHROME.
Load of rubbish but hey it is early in the morning and I'm only on my first cup of tea. xx

I'm on my second, ex-blonde,
Of tea I am very fond.
Coffee I like too,
Of alcohol I have no clue,
Soft drinks for me every time,
This is such a silly rhyme
Shows my brain isn't working,
That's usual, always shirking!

When I use my computor I use a mouse,
Unfortunately It's not the only one in our house,
I've only just learnt how to copy and paste
And I know all about upper and lower case,
I'm now part of the Twitter and Facebook set
Although I havn't quite got the hang of them yet
I'ts taking every brain cell I poccess to compose this
If I don't win I shall I'll know you're just taking the p***

We can all be poets, just words after all,
No need to be fancy or use any tech tool,
Let it flow from the soul, try, give it some thought,
We all went to school and English were taught.
Poetry is easy, should not cause despair
So put some words down, yes, you have it right there,
Not quite so bad now and you know I am right,
Just keep on blogging on this wonderful site.
Love to all, xxxx

The minister for health, Jeremy Hunt,
had a son who was so alike, they named him Mike,
They seek him here, they seek him there
has anybody seen Mike anywhere,
be careful when you shout

My dear KOTC do you know how much I love you? What with taking over the world and putting it right with poetry I would never have had such fun without your help. I am trying to pack to go away but this is much more interesting. I will make my final judgement on my return, next Sunday. Follow the King's rules they are great and a non rhyming poem in themselves.
'Til next week I remain yours in mischief

There was an old lady from Wales
Who used to catch fish by their tales
A mermaid one day said please go away
So now she just writes silly tales.

I can't for the life of me think
Of a poem about something pink
there's a lot about blue
and of black there's a few
so I'll leave with a nod and a wink

This is hard
As I am no bard
I never really knew !
Did you ?
That those sticks of 'cool'
Made me such a fool
'Coffin nails', someone told me
As I smoked ignorantly
Now I know
Too late though !
To live the best I can
Is my daily plan
For living life
Is worth the strife

Pollyjj loves the summer but it'sthe winter that is hated
We don’t know where Aunymary is located
Spiderman also does not have a home
But Cinderellas bath is where he seems to roam
Seasidesusie seems to be
In the middle of the sea
Her little doggie must get a shock
When she lets him out for his walk
Gordon is always around when our computers have us at a loss
Do you think he is the secret boss
And as for the King what can we say
Without him we would not want to come out to play.

The sun disappeared, where did it go ?
Spring arrived as a load of snow
We coughed and sneezed from morn till night
Keeping medics busy with our plight
Huffin and puffin with legs on go slow
We struggle along thinking when will it go
This weather that's kept us all so low
To sit in the garden with sun on our face
Would put us all in a happier place.

In My Dreams
I walk slowly and can’t manage far,
I travel to most places in my car,
I sit at my window and watch the birds,
Their beauty defies conventional words.
But I can laugh and have some fun
And in my dreams I can still run.
My grandchildren know I can’t chase around
But my lap is there and easily found,
When I sit in a chair it is a comfortable place
And we can chat face to face.
But I can laugh and have some fun
And in my dreams I can still run.
My children know I am there when they want to talk,
And I can ride in my ‘chariot’ while they walk.
I don’t have to worry about comfortable shoes
I can go for miles without aching feet blues!
And I can laugh and have some fun
And in my dreams I can still run.
When you light up that cigarette and have a drag,
Just remember it was years of smoking a fag
That has made me as I am today,
In money and in health you pay.
But I can laugh and have some fun
And in my dreams I can still run.
Keep smiling

This brought tears to my eyes Carole. So true, I dream quite a lot, I always have, but I don't think I've ever had a dream in which I'm not healthy - I find that strange. A beautiful poem and so apt for this forum. Libbyxx

Basinga Entry for Contest ?
My Spirit is good but the Future looks bleak.It`s so long ago that I was at my Peak
My Lungs are worn out, my breathing is weak,viision and hearing are bad,my bones creak,
Must`nt laugh else my Bladder springs a leak! Feeling cold so a warm woollie I must seek.
Thanks to Healthunlocked Bloggers for keeping me cheerful! Basinga.

Id like to be out there
Where the weeds just stand and stare
They know i.m on my way
They're just not sure which day !
Maybe there.s a conspiracy
To keep me stuck in here
So the weeds can fight my flowers
Trying to appear
So when the aches disappear
I shall dress up warm and go
Trowel in hand to the garden
And tell those weeds
The same as I told the snow !!!!
