(1)Young Tom visited his great aunt, until he was ten years old,
And soon after his next birthday, her old mansion would be sold,
Since she died, and he would miss them both, as nine years changed the date.
He completed school, did two years work, and started college late.
(2)At the end of his first Uni year, he [...]

The excitement mounts as the megadrive loads,
“That’s him! I can see him! Right there!”
Now all the people are screaming and shouting
At the guy with long blue hair.
So, who is this babe?
This iconic beauty?
He’s a video-game prince,
Sonic Hedgehog by name.
He leads a heavenly life,
Desired and lusted by millions,
You would have guessed it,
Since he is perfection.
Is it [...]

Then let us all go DREAMING-
The DREAMS of the “Olden Time”-
And there you’ll see the “Sweetheart Tree”-
Where HER NAME is carved with MINE!
For the winds still sway the SWEETHEART TREE….
Where She wrote her name……with mine!
And we all have TREES IN THE FOREST-
Where leaves with the IVY shine-
And….there is HER NAME, on the SWEETHEART TREE-
And written [...]

Outside your window,
I’m looking in.
At you, yes you.
My friend, who knows everything.
Except that you are beautiful.
Yes your looking at yourself in the
mirror, playing with your hair.
Disapproval plagues your face.
You don’t know your beautiful
but you are, I can see it.
I can see it right now.
You don’t like your body.
You think your body isn’t good looking.
But it [...]

Darkness falls into a city
A city of silence and the whispers in your head echoes. Your mind plays tricks at you.Time doesn’t exist as you watch frozen stiff. The pale silver moon has transform to a blood crimson red. The sound of chains trailing over peddles break the silence slitting through the throat of the [...]

Present Day
It was the first Monday in weeks when I was not in office before ten. As I saw the frosted sundial of my old citizen ticking eleven thirty, I cursed myself for the umpteenth time for choosing that insurance company. I found out that the other companies did not require so many tests after [...]

Ice melting on my eye
Running like spring into warm meadows
Even the distance between us is precious
In this universe that has no space
Today’s crossroads are the convergence
Of hundreds years of dreams,
In this universe that has no time
Snowflakes falling on my face
Melting like ghostly kisses
The stroke of a glance
Ocean and sky the same hazy blue
I draw the [...]

I work part-time as a funeral attendant. Hopefully that explains the motive for this writing. Just trying to put a little humour into a serious subject.
Well, here I am.
I never expected it to happen this soon,
but I passed away last weekend.
Stupid horse,
I told them I didn’t like horses,
too much power for an animal that gets [...]
