Remember Me
I see you from the corner of my eye
Watching your every move
I stay out of view and allow you
To continue with your day’s work
One day we might be together
But until then I will hold my peace
And wait for you to come for me
Remember me in time and I will
Remember you

Full Moon shining bright
Like a sun of the dark night
Sparkling stars kneel down –
Gems in a diamond-encrusted
Crown of heaven’s sky light
I hear wind in the trees
Whispering secrets to me
I hold them close to my heart
These tales shared carefully
And I know I will never
Find peace like this moment
Of being held close and offered
Treasures forever
I love all that you do for me
All that you say
I love all our sweet memories
Hidden away
I love all that I know of you
From that first day
You flew into my life
And stayed by my side
In response to The Daily Post’s writing prompt: “I’d Like to Thank My Cats.”
I’d like to thank my cats
But I don’t have any so instead
I will have to thank the rats
I can hear in the ceiling overhead
The award I do not know
I’ve never put on a show
My singing hurts the ears
Of those who can hear
So these words will have to
Sing a song for me
How often do you get sugar cubes served with your tea?
A popular columnist in Sydney will write that “she can’t even deal”. Translation: something has happened that is so profound or obscure or unexpected that she can’t even acknowledge what has happened. As in, it is beyond belief, there are no words.
Well, this evening (my time in Sydney), I can say that “I can’t even deal”. Because I have sent correctly formatted (according to the spec received) Adobe inDesign files through to a publisher for publishing, and they have come back for sign off totally different to what I sent through. So all I can say to this is, I can’t even deal!
Which means, I have a low res PDF version of a book, all the files correctly formatted and designed to create the book, but I Still don’t have a book!
And as my late mother would say if she were here – it begs the question, how hard can it possibly be?
THANK YOU for reading!
At times when sadness overwhelms
And I cannot see past my own tears
Your presence comforts me
Even though we are not together
Your shadow warms my heart and reminds me
We are never apart
Why do people lie?
Is it because they do not like the truth
Is it because they do not like the question
Is it because they do not like the answer
Is it because it is simply easier to explain
Is it because there is a fear of being judged
Is it because they are afraid of what might be
Is it because they are scared to tell the truth
Is it because it feels the safer option
Tell me, why did you lie to me?
Trust is a dance
Between you and me
Trusting that you will never let me down
And if you let me go
To fall to the floor
The music will fade to silence
And I will dance with you
No more
