EYES (Poems with Friends!)

Blue eyes reflect the sun on sea

A summer colour for you and me

Hazel eyes the emerald, of dappled shade

The cooler light of autumn betrayed

Brown eyes the darkness of winter wood

But also the honeyed tones of warmth and good

Then come the sweet green eyes of spring

Of dancing grasses and fairy rings

C O U R A G E

Careful to judge

Open-hearted

Uniquely expressive

Righteous

Always getting back up

Gallant as a knight

Even in the toughest situations

The Phoenix

From a heart left in the ashes

The gentle glow of kindness

And a certain tenderness

Gives rise

To the rekindling of the embers

Fed by the quiet affection of another

As it gives rise to a fiery inferno of passionate love

Returning in colour it intensifies!

Born anew in the world

Of a heart on the mend

Poetry - Trees

Trees are tall but sometimes small

The leaves change colour when it’s fall

In winter there are few leaves left,

In spring and summer they look their best

They communicate beneath the ground

Talking to each other when no one’s around

Some people love to hug a tree

I think those people include me

I wonder if the tree would hug back

Because if not that’s kind of slack

That’s the end of my nature rap

Poetry - Phones

Phones, phones, they’re everywhere!

In our hands while we stare

On tables and places we’re unaware

While with a phone we’re barely there

In a world of our own making,

Ignoring surroundings like the muffins baking

This welcome distraction is very fun

We just need to remember to get some sun

Poetry - Eyes

Eyes, eyes, who can deny

That some are as blue as the sea or the sky

Some have eyes as green as a forest,

Some have eyes as brown as a chocolate

Hazel eyes are a beautiful combination 

No colour is an abomination 

Every colour has its perks

But most important is that they work

For seeing is a wonderful gift

One that surely will uplift

Life in colour with all its beauty

It’s so much better than a movie

Poetry - Shoes

Which shoes should I choose?

The thongs, runners or high heels?

If I choose the thongs,

I’ll fit in with the summer songs

If I choose the running shoes,

My feet will never get the blues

If I choose the high heels though

I’ll get bunions and walk slow

Poetry - Kite

Go and fly a kite, they say

But what if it will fly away?

No matter, unless lightning strikes

If that happens, the kite ignites

Sparks will fly and the kite will fall

Sadly the kite will be no more

But even if it’s “goodnight, kite”

You can always ride a bike

Poetry - Day

So this is the day

Hip, hip, hooray!

What more can I say?

Go outside and play!

The sun is shining,

It’s so inviting,

But if you get sunburnt

It’s a lesson well learned 

But don’t fret,

It’s not raining yet

So you won’t get wet

You’ll probably just sweat

In the heat of the daytime

You’ll enjoy some playtime

Because when the day is over

The weather gets colder

You’ll surely miss 

The sun’s warm kiss

Poetry - Night

So this is the night

It’s such a delight

There’s stars in the sky

That are twinkling bright

Poetry - Seasons

Summer isn’t a bummer

When it’s this hot

How can you not

Go outside and enjoy the backyard plot

☀️ 

Autumn leaves

So crunchy and red

When this beautiful season ends

It fills me with dread

🍁 

Winter snow

Makes my heart glow

If only it could

Always be like this though

❄️ 

Oh Spring, what a thing

Flowers all around 

It’s so pretty

It’s such a pity

That this season has to end

Poetry - Cat

Oh no!

My beautiful cat

Brought home a bat

It’s considered a present

But I think it’s unpleasant

Poetry - Bee

Oh look, it’s a bee

Clinging to that flowering tree

The weather is so sunny

It makes me want to eat some honey
