On solid ground. Solid earth.
I'm just glad to be here. Still able to toil. On top of the world
Better than being beneath it.
In the bowels of the Earth. Six feet deep under the soil

We are besieged in our garden
By a calculating Cat
Who´s decided we´re its Humans
And that´s the end of that.
It´s there every morning
Sitting in our Patio chair
And when we go to bed
It´s still sitting there.
It disappears at odd times
For various reasons of its own
But for the vast bulk of the day
We are seldom left alone.
The slightest movement on our part
Arouses it from its apparent slumber
And it´s up to the French Door
Giving us the Evil Eye Number.
We´re resisting wholeheartedly
With all our body and soul
But day by day we feel
It´s nearer getting in control.
Friends and family all tell us
There´s many worse fates than that
Of being the Chosen Carer
Of a Wily Calculating Cat.
It´s standing on the step now
Giving me that unwavering stare
Just to emphasise the point
That it´s still waiting there.
I noticed cat food on the shoppng list.
I tell Sue its not a matter of the cost.
If we just crack once and feed it
We´ll be forever lost, lost, lost.

Todays your day.
I'm more depressed than I ever have been.
I hate that I'm not there to celebrate you.
I miss you.
I miss you so much.
I just wish I could sit in the backyard with you
Listen to our music.
Bring you some flowers.
I miss you so much.
I just want to celebrate your day with you
Happy Birthday babes.
I love you.

~EVAPORATING PEARLS~
Green grass decorated
with millions of pearls.
Rays of morning Sun
making the dew*drops
shine like diamonds.
Breath*taking beauty
of the shining dew*pearls
is way beyond any words
to capture in a poem.
Tender loving Sun*rays
giving that beauty to
the pearl*like dew drops;
when becomes so hot,
takes away their lives
evaporating the dew drops.
If Sun could cry, he would
cry for the dew*drops
and hate himself for
killing the very thing
he cared for and loved
with his heart and soul.

A generation comes and goes,
But the earth remains forever;
For certain only, the Lord knows,
What each of us will endeavor.
The sun rises and will go down,
Hastens to the place it rises;
Just as a king will wear a crown,
Other kingdoms he despises.
The wind blows south and blows north.
The wind goes around and round;
On its circuits, the wind goes forth,
While you hear the roaring sound.
All rivers run into the sea,
But the ocean is never full;
As the winds toss waves fancy*free,
And where the fish are bountiful.
All things are full of weariness,
Eyes and ears are not satisfied;
As labor brings on dreariness,
Things that are not identified.
What has been being what will be,
What has been done that will be done;
Without the sun how will you see,
All the work that ever was done.
Is there a thing of which it is said,
This is new but has been before;
About old times that had been fled,
Kept under wraps in a locked door.
No remembrance of former things,
Nor remembrance of what comes later;
Only God will know what it brings,
As the great communicator.

Come as you are
follow the bright and morning star
Come and give thanks to the Holy One
worship the Holy Son
He died for you on the tree
come He is for you and me
Come the rich and the poor
He can open the door
Behold He stands at the door and knocks
He is the alpha and omega the living rock!

The smile on her face
The smile on her face spoke of wonders,
Far beyond the grasp of this world,
What she saw we must leave to the future,
To a time when we too leave this earth.
Her last breath was taken in splendour,
In the light of a new world to come,
She then breathed in the air of salvation,
In the knowledge that 'God’s will be done.'
Her smile bore the glow of amazement,
What she saw one can only surmise,
In a secular world without answers,
No explaining the joy in her eyes.
