...THE MAGIC BOOK PAGES
The mind is like an open book - you
sometimes want to close
Page after page is telling a story -
but what of....no body knows.
The pages tell a story and your mind
can create some glory
And if you do get stuck - there's always
Jackanory!
The mind can be stimulated as the
eyes open wide with glee
And you can also make a story up -
and it's all for free.
The excitement is overwhelming as
you turn page by page
And can enjoy the whole book - no
matter what your age.
The pages can see a secret and they
know a troubled mind
You can even enjoy the pages - even
if you're blind.
You see the pages are also magic as
they can also talk to you
That is so special the magic is so true.

THE WATERFALL OF LIFE
(I dedicate my poem to all
true believers. May God truly
bless you. Amen.)
The waterfall of life,
shall quench the
thirst, which is rife,
For the thirst of the
mind does say;
"drink and thou shall
save a life?"
The water is pure -
and so sweet,
It tastes so good -
it really is neat.
The father, our God,
has blessed the water -
Just for us - as we
now drink, as we
oughta!
In desperation, the
body does wander,
But forsaking the lord,
is only in slumber?
We all need guidance -
and a shoulder for
support,
That shoulder, I feel,
is the support, I do
sought?
To cleanse the soul,
is all I wish,
Then take a taste, of
that glorious dish!
The dish of food -

A BRIGHTER TOMORROW
The poor get poorer
that's a fact
The rich get richer
they never use any
tact.
The homeless are
begging - but some
are only fake
They sit outside the
shops - and are
always on the take.
The Government has
tried to help us
But some people do
cause a lot of fuss.
They stay at home
working hard on the
phone -
As the slowly turn
into a clone!
Life will never be
the same again - but
to carry on we do
Covid-19 has changed
our lives - that is very
true.
When we wear the
masks - it hides a
sinister look
Then we walk in to a
shop or a bank - and
looking like a crook!
Is there light at the
end of this dismal
...THE MAGICAL HEAVENLY STARS
The magic of the stars
is magic to the eyes
I can see them all day
and night - what a
surprise.
The stars gather round
on proud display,
And to see this magical
sight we do not need to
pay.
The darkest of the night
is a blessing for all to
see,
You just look on up at
the sky - believe me - it
is free.
The sky is inviting me
to go and have a tour
To see the wondrous
stars on parade - they
ooze lots of amour.
God has made a special
home somewhere in
the sky
I would dearly love to
see it - of this I cannot
deny.
Even the angels are
flying and flirting with
the stars,
As they are now angelic
pop sta...
TO ESCAPE MENTAL ILLNESS
You can run and hide
and admire the calm
sea tide
You can have a friend
by your side
But you cannot get
away
For mental illness is
out to cause you mass
dismay.
You feel so worthless
as you lose interest
to live
So you now go on a
mission - your enemies
you forgive.
You feel low and isolated
and you wish to end
your life
Because mental illness
is causing you so much
strife.
There is no hope as
you just want to be set
free
So you plan your exit
as soon as you've had
your tea.
Your feelings are at
rock bottom - you only
want to get away
You care nothing of
your friends and family -
MY BROKEN HEART
You leave me with a broken heart
You said we would never part.
Our love was solid and so new
I loved you more each day that is
true.
So my heart is broken for now,
but it will mend
And I promise myself I won't go
round the bend.
My life is worthless that is so
true
Because the love of my life is
always you.
Every day my heart sinks so low
and it is broken
But one day a new love and my
heart will be awoken.
God shall help me that's for sure
As God's love is the loving cure.
My darling, my life, you are now
my wife
Never again will I suffer any strife.
My heart is beating as your love
has rekindled my love
...THE "POLITICAL" RAINBOW
The colourful rainbow is
a beautiful sight,
But it has been hijacked
by the LGBT and it gives
us all a fright.
The colourful rainbow
used to be in the sky, so
high,
But now it's used for
propaganda - it really
makes one cry.
The LGBT are out there -
that we all do know
But the more they promote
their propaganda - it makes
us all feel low.
The sky where it rightfully
belongs now is a distant
memory,
But the rainbow is used
in a political way - and thus
creates more bigotry!

MY DARLING....I LOVE YOU
MY DARLING...I DO LOVE YOU
The sound of your cry,
Does ask the reason
why,
Your love is my life -
without you I would
die.
So please stay with
me - to live as one -
we will try.
My darling I miss you,
that is so true,
You make me feel so
good - and truly brand
new.
Our lives are to be
together - and our love
will be true,
If God is my witness - I
love you, truly I do.

FORSAKEN FOR LOVE
Forsaken only to you
My love for you is true.
Blessed is the soul of
love
It comes as a gift from
above.
Cross your heart as
you pray
And you'll never again
feel dismay.
Forgive those who hurt
us so
For they always enjoy
a fuss as we feel low.
To feel your beating
heart so loud
You feel the nerves of
the shouting crowd.
The Holy Ghost is a
blessed soul of life,
As you betrove your
love to your loving
wife.
God Bless thy honour
and all on Earth.
As we all will feel a
new rebirth.
The love is there within
your heart
And tomorrow shall
bring a whole new start.
