“How cheery we shall be…”

How cheery we shall be
Preparing for World War Zee
Storing sacks of pasta
To consume during disaster.

Studying survival tips
To outlast an apocalypse
No more jolly recreation
Only impending annihilation.

Just time to make a cup of tea
Before arrives the next zombie
But Bourbons we’ll forgo
There’s a war on don’t you know!

Deadhead the undead carefully
And keep them off the rockery!
Don’t mind the bodies decomposing
Provides for plentiful composting.

“It’s lovely outside…”

It’s lovely outside
But I’m stuck in here
In my head
By my own fear.

The sun is shining
The door’s ajar
But I can’t escape
The leap’s too far.

People laughing
Friends I know
Invite me out
But I can’t go

It’s lovely outside,
But I’m torn in two,
I deserve a break,
With so much to do.

It was lovely outside,
The sun I saw,
Through the window,
Now shut the door!

“Summer turns to autumn…”

Summer turns to autumn
Tired leaves fall
Deep water blackens
And you don’t call.

Autumn turns to winter
Flowers wilt and die
Cold snow deepens
And you don’t reply.

Winter turns to spring
Baby ducks so small
Nature starts over
And you don’t call.

Spring turns to summer,
Ducklings learn to fly
Another year passes
And you don’t reply.

“On Christmas Eve when I was ten…”

On Christmas Eve when I was ten
I watched the A-Team with my friend
No thoughts of yuletide festivity
We were both in awe of Mr. T.

Not ones to suffer from any self-doubt
The A-Team always found their way out
A formidable force we all did agree
And the strongest of all was Mr. T.
