Unlock Your Justice

There seems to be much more to seek

when considering salvation

reducing need by escape from greed

owning up to your fear sensation

To be content and serenely calm

let your anger waves abate

accept a world of differences

gaining insight losing hate

Keep a weathered eye on  fairness

ask yourself how you are blameless

study every crowd who screams out loud

proclaiming all but us are shameless

Don't be afraid to be afraid Yoko Ono

Cat Kin

That is yours, this is mine

no, no, no, we share them

I want them. No! I want them

be careful else we’ll tear them

Let’s stop a moment think awhile

slow down a bit and wait

we can find a quieter way

like fair and square negotiate

Negotiate means listen more

try to understand

each one of us can have their say

then walk in friendship hand in hand

Stray Cat: A love story

Yeah well I’ve been around some
you’ll forgive me if I wait

at times I’ve been quite gullible

succumbing to the bait

I used once to be so trusting

in those young days quite naïve

giving almost everything

with dripping wounds I took my leave

I got used to grief and hunger

denied my loneliness and pain
but never once gave up my hope

to meet a real friend once again

Time for a Crow

The complex cognition of crows

makes a bird with exceptional brains

giving answers to questions we pose

for the crow with cognition explains

Following smart movers is canny

beneficial in setting them free

enhancing the scope of their cranny

finding proof at the top of the tree

The Eccentric Teapot

A cup of tea for every taste

must at all times bring one flavour
deep and rich and colourful
enhancing interludes to savour

The best of brews promoting muse

aromatic heaven scent
may not be got without a pot
when in pursuit of esculent

Reduce the odds when brewing tea

avoid the cuppa lottery
the finest tea will set you free
in a vessel of tea pottery

The Winner

A peoples champion

Praise goes to the intrepid champion

who fought every step of the way

who never gave up his mighty resolve

and defeated his rival dismay 

He conquered the enemy inside

and hammered the voice of dissent

ignoring the slurs from the media cur’s 

trouncing the spiteful his greatest event 

So light up a beacon for all to enjoy

his war so much more than a flurry

I may not be Scottish yet proud of this boy 

the invincible man Andy Murray 

The Caller

Lying there waiting hour by hour

in hope that the certain may change

among callers and carers moments pass

as one secretly desires some exchange

The visitor calls with nothing to say

finding rhythm by drumming on knees

humming along to invisible tunes

feeling bankrupt whilst trying to please

Though it slows down the moments

the caller reflects images of personal pain

a visit devalued by self interest’s defeat

forcing silence to scream once again

When visiting the sick and desperately ill leave duty in the trash can outside. If when you arrive you have nothing to say 

then at least avoid platitudes like: “And how are we today?”
