Waiting

I have spent my life waiting for you
Meeting many great souls along the way
Life had excitements, progress and gains
Sadness and disappointments also held sway
I centred myself and learnt to love me
I cared for others and threw off my chains
Made my own happiness learned made some gains
I didn’t fall in love easily
My heart stayed intact
Had some flings agreeably
But always felt a lack
I knew you were out there somewhere in this world
Then I met you and saw you smile
I felt the draw, the lure of you, my equilibrium disturbed
I want to walk into your arms, for you to hold me close
I know I will feel both safe and exhilarated, even without a trial
I long to feel your heart beating next to mine
Feel our breathing mesh, with time
I have been waiting my whole life through
Waiting for the miracle that could just be you

What makes you smile?

What makes you smile, is it sometimes naughty
Or is it always pc, like in a laboratory
Or a combination of things that tickles your fancy
Does humour make that belly laugh satisfactory
Do the small joys of life make your day
Make you grin, a pleasure survey
What makes you smile?

Joys to savour

Joy to each might have different hues
Recognising and counting it, it’s important to choose
Instead of your cares holding sway, ferret out those joys hidden in every day.

What could they be?
Something simple, that you see
A compliment
A message from a friend
Sharing a moment
An email or text to send
A smile from a stranger
The song of a bird
That shaft of sunshine
Beautiful music  just heard
Gifting time to help another
A shared repast
Writing,and new things to discover
The future and the past
Having a giggle
Some time with a friend
Sharing time with a lover
Joys countless to spend
A quick list off the top of my head
Of joys to savour
So many others to add to the list
Maybe add yours to mingle the flavour

Care to share some of yours?

In your arms

In your arms I feel consoled
I let go the fears within
Feel safe and warmed of icy cold
That surrounded me since him.

I feel the bud of warm sweet love
A tingling of the skin
Your caring fits me like a glove
Happiness could win.

I feel uplifted by your words
A story newly formed
A new adventure less absurd

my defences have been stormed.

Though tempered yet with caution
I feel love begin to grow.

Future memories

What will I think of you in years to come
Will my memory of events be true or turned to none
I hope the best moments will still be there
Or will they be subsumed by the bitter share
How can I hold the bliss, the joy of you
Will it just be a transient pleasure, with no review
As life twists and turns and feelings change
Will memories be soured and rearranged
We are in the throes of passion
Let it in we don’t have to ration
Let’s enjoy our time together
Hope these headlines showcase the endeavour
With work and luck we will continue to add new chapters
Keeping love in our lives, making raptures
Right now let’s try to make great moments
Catch the rainbow, bottle the psychosis
What will I think of you in years to come

Willing you to smile

I am in a happy mood
Want to share it with a multitude
This crazy streak
May make me wreak
Happy havoc
As I speak
I want to make the whole world smile
Although that may take a while
So instead will start with you
Try to will you smiling too!
