The Flood

The flood

It looks like a good day

So, I’m going out to play

Sun shining bright

Suddenly dark clouds make day night

One drop of water

Falls on my shoulder

I should know now I’m older

That I can’t hold back water.

But! first I must stop

Go into the shop

To buy what I need

Before the water stamped

I think maybe I’ll get home before the down pour

Makes a lake at my door

From inside the shop

I watch the water drop

As if each drop is in a race

And wants to be the first to wet every dry place

I look to the sky

No blue can I spy

The pavement is soaked

So is my coat

I stop by the traffic lights

No road is in sight

Think I need a boat

I know it would float

Chester Road has become a new river run

Now! where is that sun

The time has come

The time has come they said
When tiredness would flood my head
When working nine to five
Would eat my soul alive
When stacking shelves late at night
Just to keep the budget right
Would make me fall apart
And stop my playing the part
Of mother,father, bread winner
Councilor, miricle worker and home maker
I had to stop and look at me
When my head forgot to see
That health and wealth
Do not live on the same shelf
One walks in corporate ways
The other in balmy country days

Actions and Words.

Actions and Words

Do you pull the horse then the plough?

Have to stop to wipe your brow?

Do you the furrow fuel and dig?

Make fears dreams ever so big?

Do you sit and wait for an open gate?

Or fill the world with your anger and hate?

Listen to the words you use

Listen to the way they air your views

Did you really mean to say all that?

Or were you talking about a cat or a bat?

Now as you clean up your shiny shoes

Look at the actions you also use

Do they speak the same word game?

And build a united one meaning frame?

Or do they speak the words of life

Are they the cause of all trouble and strife?

Many see and many hear

Do they like you to be near?

Because you a peaceful pool create

That opens up their wonder gate?

Many know and answer you

See your actions in all you do?

Little children watch and mimic

Are they using this as a gimmick?

See your world laid out in action

Then you can learn contraction

Of the negative path you lead

And build a live of love to seed

Maybe you want the other way

Well now you can build each new day.

So please consider each word you use

And know the way people will muse

Their meaning and their impact

Then they can always know how to react.

The Road Choice

poem of life

The fork in the road is only the choice you made today

Take a seat and listen to your inner child at play

Feel the breeze on your back

Take the energy it brings that you lack

Walk in the light of the sun and your heart

own the choice you did take a part

Sit in the centre of your hearth

Then you will know that you took the right path.

What is Disability

What is disability?

A state of mind

A place where people can be unkind

Where nature and nurture forget to communicate

Where one or other forgets to close the gate

And where paths divide

Unkind word chide

Many do not know the way

To the others kind of day

To see the hobbled body where boundaries abound

Shows how to make that friendship sound

There are other ways

To behold disabilities gaze

In the eyes and in the tongue that make unanswerable phrase

OH my please dry your eye.

I am my own disability and all I need is your ability

To hold my hand and understand

I am me

The one like you who is free.

Mind cannot behold

Something that is or is not bold

Mind cannot know

Each path that others have to go

Yet My mind

Is me

Oh can’t you see

I am like you free

Yet my mind holds me fettered

I am so shattered

With invisibilities cloak

I am not just a piece of coke

To be burnt and tossed away

Yes my friend I am here to stay

I do not know I do not fit in

Is that such a sin

To want to belong

To sing with you our summer song

Do not judge my state of mind

Just hold out your hand to me be kind

The Way to live for 2015

Dare to say hi to a stranger every day.

Smile and in a little while you will have new friends

Laugh with them and create

remember to walk through futures gate

Hold out your hand and show that you do not fear

so that you can be a lamp for those who are near.

For now is the new year.

Let go of the old that is gone

Hold out your hand and grasp the sun

For now is your day

your way

and the worlds joy

It is no longer a rich man’s toy

Care for it.

Grow it.

Mother Earth will guide you.

live in pace

love and light

Demici

share it.

Christmas message from the guides

It is the time of release tears

For all the missed things through the years

It is the time of celebration

For all the things that fell in to creation

Let us hold the light of man

And help him/her all we can

For in this time of giving

We are found among the living

We come with gifts of many kinds

And we give them freely to all open minds

Come and sit by imaginations fire

And learn what you can it is not for hire

Hold on to your way

Enjoy each and every day

Let the time of passed belief

Be the way to your relief

When in this the day of gratitude

We give you more than latitude

We send the light to show the way

To you to find your new day.
