Demons Rising

image

Panic is rising
Rising up and
Light is growing
Growing dimmer
While darkness
Is darkening
I steel myself
Trying to keep
Safe from
Demons inside
Rising up to
Throttle
My heart
Not knowing
Where to go
Or where to turn
I hold myself

Silence

Single Woman Alone Swinging On The Beach

I wait alone
I wait for you

Surrounded by silence
And thoughts so blue

Where are you
Where could you be?

Do you know I’m here
Do you think of me?

Girl Power

image.jpeg

Sometimes we girls need friends. Some girl power to lift us up, and remind us we are loved. Today I spent a couple of hours with one of my girlfriends. I arrived with a sore heart. Only to find that it was uplifted and encouraged. We enjoyed the sun, the scenery, the coffee, the lunch, the company, each other, and celebrating the fact that we are girls. No, not girls. We are Women. Mothers. Wives. Friends.

We are passionate. And we are awesome. 🙂

Fragile

Fragile memories of
Sorrow mixed with sweet.

My mind floods with those who
Filled my heart—

Stolen from me suddenly,
Precious souls.

They brighten the shadows
With splashes of golden sun.

Zing!

I love the zing of lemon. In fact, just seeing this image has made my taste buds start zinging. Often I drink plain boiling water with lemon slices thrown in it.
One evening a long time ago, I was on a business trip in the UK. The client invited me for a pub dinner. It was bizarre in that I had a lemon squash to drink, lemon battered fish, and for desert I had a lemon tart. My dream lemon dinner haha 🙂

Elegant


Adorning the world

Nature’s gifts abundantly 

Free, pure elegance

Twinkle

Beautiful stars

Twinkle at night

Dance in the shadows

Of the moonlight

Plop

I was so bored this evening with nothing to do, and not feeling like reading or studying for Java 8 exam (because I can), so I just plopped onto my bed and looked at the ceiling for a couple of hours. Every thirty minutes I was able to play candy crush until my lives all died, and had to wait for reset to happen.

Well, that’s been my evening folks, from Sydney, wishing you a good night! Or good day if that works better for you.

Pop quiz: when last did you use the word ‘plop’?

Wedding Cake Fail

Ok, so sometimes I have good ideas, and then sometimes I have not so good ideas. Like my wedding cake. As an example. My husband-to-be and I were paying for our own wedding, and on a tight budget. The venue we had booked included an ice-cream cake as part of the lunch menu. Who needs a wedding cake I thought, when there is already an ice-cream cake on the menu. It can double up. Pretty it up and there you go. Cake. What a stoopid idea. Try romantic photos attempting the slicing of a cake, an ice-cream one. It was so rock solid frozen we could not even put an ice-sharpened knife through it. And it had a green ribbon around it. When my color theme if I could say I even had one, was orange. Not green. Not clever. Not cake.

Shiver 

I shiver

When you say my name 

I tremble 

When I hear your voice

I tingle

When I feel your kiss 

I desire you 

So much
