The Grass is Greener, We Just Have to Look

Nearly done 300 posts now. Bloody hell. 

Patches of green
soaked in the sun
despite the crisp air
and topped off with a fountain
makes it more so serene. 


But it's not just
the places like this
soft on the eye
as petal lipped kiss 


If we look closely 
with our eyes of the ground
we can try and find
the beautiful places 
all around. 




Yay for shitty clichés :') 

Falling in to Dreams

This is a dream I had last night - it was really vivid so thought I could try and make a poem from it :) Also since it's based on a dream, I doubt I can google a picture of it that fits the picture in my head so like some other poems on here, no picture for today so you can come up with your own.



Not quite flying
supported by a rope
vivid green trees
their leaves out of reach
star bust explosions 
of yellow blossoms
spread across the lime
green grass below.


Fear of falling
when looking down
upon the road like
river flowing below
grey, despite the
blanket of blue above.


People are swimming
some are up in the ropes
I take your hand
trying to feel safe 
fingers assured
by a strong grip
strange,
I didn't think 
I'd be here with you


We let go
but the rope lurches 
and my arms wrap
round your neck,
here I feel safest of all
when holding you
and finally I manage
to enjoy the view.

Just Flowing By

Surrounded by green
enveloped in peace
the sound of water 
trickles through the silence 
with the long stemmed
blades of grass, which
whisper to one another
in the breeze.


The sky caresses the trees 
matching your breath
the chatter of the birds
with the rhythm of a heart beat
while the rocks sit under 
the water, watching time
flow by
just forever,
watching the clouds chase the sky.

Sunshine, De-stress Time

I finished exams today :D

Relief
pours through the system
shoulders relax
palms are light
pair this with blue skies
and smudges of white
lime green grass underfoot
there's nothing to do
but smile
and enjoy the sunshine.

Peace (The Body Has Time)

The sunshine is wonderful for inspiration :) I wrote 3 poems today, which I've never done while I've been doing this. To make life easier for me though, I'll post them over 3 days. As you'll tell by my next poem, I'm feeling pretty mellow today.... despite work load!

It's a mood when the body has time
the pulse slows
the senses take in more
rather than the brain telling them 
to ssshh and get on with working.


The feel of bare feet on grass
a bee buzzing
running a hand through the the pond
child like
refreshing none the less
just how green a budding leaf
really is
and the smell of sap on fingers
after a closer look at it.


Overloaded
not with worries or stress
but ideas
brimming
swimming
underneath the skin
once thoughts are silenced 
and the body has time. 

Reminder Rainbow

Roses, strawberries, lips
Tropicana, high lighters, pumpkin
Sunshine, daffodils, holidays 
Grass, forests, spring 
Ocean, berries, sky 
Dusk, sapphires, blankets
Royalty, amethyst, parma violets 

Looking Down

Cigarettes in the no-man's land 
between grass
and cement
clinging desperately
to the green
not wanting to be stuck
in the grey dreary sea
like a child clutching
to their mothers clothes
when afraid.


Let me stay in the green
where it's alive
don't leave me
drowning in the grey. 

Green, Blue, Red

Comfort woven
through red, green
and blue threads.
Winding over
one another.

Memories overlap
in similar fashion.
Simplicity
at its best.
