Spring

Dreaming of a garden
Rich in green and red
Blooming with a passion
Bursting from each bed

A panoply of colour
To soothe the troubled mind
A haven of pure texture
A comfort hard to find

Let every leaf be green
Or merry yellow gold
A vision to impress
Of nature bright and bold

Liar

Why should I believe you
When all you do is lie?
Leave me all the meaning
And don't go asking why

There's no sense is asking
When the answer is plain to see
No longer will I fall for the trap
Whenever you next query me

Sunny

A little light Huzzah
To say we've come this far
No answering to a downer's call
We may some day just have it all

Stay in bed

There came a day from hell
When I could quickly tell
No matter what I said or did
I should've merely kept myself hid
For nothing was going to go well

Wheels

Looking for a ride
A chance to roam outside
Hoping for a deal
Knowing there's no steal
Picturing us cruising
At a cost without bruising

Clarity

Coming to terms with reality
Is like a punch in the face
Hoping for prolonged clarity
Seems like a good dream to chase

Sold?

Here we are on tenterhooks
Wondering what will be
Although we are excited
The future's real hard to see

A year of change has been good
A year of change has been bad
A year of change has seen joy
A year of change has been sad

Now to close a chapter
In this book we write
As we start another
Things are looking bright

A Toast

Today is quite a special day. I have actually reached the one year mark. I posted my first poem on May 3, 2011. I have had a great time doing this. It has basically become a habit and I don't really want to stop. So, I am going to continue this thread because I have enjoyed it so much. It's true that most of the poems were terrible. Some were good (or at least I thought so!) but mostly they were a reflection of something I either saw that day, thought of, felt or heard. In any case, I hope you have enjoyed the ride as much as I have. Here's to letting the words out - come what may!!

 A toast to a year of saying it in rhyme
A toast to a fun way of keeping time
A toast in the morning with my cup of tea
A toast for the birds singing in our tree

One More Day

Yes, just one more day
Never knew there was so much to say
If every word was not ideal
Who cares? It was never part of the deal
All I know is that I'm having fun
And I may continue even after this run

Countdown

The countdown has begun,
I'm surely the only one,
In just a short three,
It will be done wonderfully,
And then it will all be just for fun!
