Each and every day involves decisions,
And in much wondering what to do,
You may see the consequences,
Whether it be on me or upon you?

We may consider what job to have,
And think: Which should I select?
Shall I go for this or go for that?
And: What shall then be the effect?

We may just mull over what to eat,
Or what we feel like drinking.
Or it may be an important matter,
Which req...

So what are the general public like?
Do they care? Are they kind?
Do they just think about themselves?
Or have they others on their mind?

Are they going to their place of work?
Or looking round the shops?
Are they traveling by foot or car?
Or on and off of their bus stops?

Are they happy and contented?
Or are they secretly afraid?
Do they enjoy the great outdoors?
Or wish at home is...

People have always loved to laugh, 
All around the world from ages past. 
Our humour really varies much, 
And we shall now describe it such.

The sharpest jokes might be called wit. 
Maybe so funny that our sides may split. 
Slapstick oft comes from clumsy action, 
And is meant to receive a loud reaction.

Comedians may tell funny jokes, 
And some amusing anecdotes. 
However, practical...

The winter time - it may be cold and wet, 
But there are things which we should not forget. 
Do you enjoy trudging through the snow, 
Or rather stay inside with nowhere to go?

Of course we now have Christmas too, 
Which is a time to rejoice for me and you. 
And we prepare for the long dark nights, 
A new year begins with great delight.

And so it is now time to look ahead,

I wish I could see the future, 
And then see it plain and clear. 
And hope it is full of love and joy 
And not misery or fear.

I wish I could see the future, 
And hope it is happy and care free. 
Not at all with cruel oppression, 
But with peace and harmony.

I wish I could see the future, 
And hope the world becomes respected, 
But since all these may just be a dreams,

Christmas is a time which we love and adore.

When we are happy, excited and so much more.

It is time when certain magic can all be believed,

When special gifts are both sent and received.

It is a time for families to all get together,

And be merry and joyful - whatever the weather.

It is time to put all quarrels aside,

To have fun and laughter with no need to hide.

Opinions

Our opinions, they are always changing,
And may be neither right nor wrong, 
And what one someone says is weak today,
Next they could say that it is strong.

Opinions are not definitive, 
And are not set in stone. 
What one may think is wonderful, 
Another may think of it and groan.

Opinions govern all our lives,
For they decide for whom we vote. 
And when it comes to elec...

A huge pleasure of mine is to shop,

Though I sometimes find it hard to stop.

It brings me comfort so I cannot wait,

But it may put me into such a state.

I especially love to shop online,

To see what things could soon be mine.

There are many choices. It is so vast,

And they like to take our money fast.

Whether it be a DVD, a game or book

When I go to the disco I always seem to find

This is the best possible place for me to unwind.

There's loud music with smoke and flashing lights,

With everyone excited at the noise and these sights.

One can dance all night or just soak up the fun,

And whatever may happen, the party goes on.

One must hear the rhythm, then move to the beat,

While you jig or boogie or shuffl...

Melancholy

When I am hit by the whip of melancholy
It makes me forget how to be jolly
It brings on great impatience and agitation
With anxiety and huge frustration.

Often it can really get too much,
And on my sanity I strive to clutch.
Sometimes I might even find it hard to think,
And from thought to thought I cannot link.

I cannot get my mind in gear,
And all around me I may not s...

As Autumn starts to come this way

It is time to reflect upon the day.

Do you see the leaves fall to the ground?

Softly, gently, without a sound?

Do you see the frost and mist and dew?

Do you hope the sky is still blue?

Do you feel the fresh, cool, crisp air?

And shall you find warmer clothes to wear?

Hibernation starts at these times,

As small creatures hope fo...

If one should get right up to death's very brink

This is the time to stop and think

'Shall I stay alive or shall I die?'

Though there is no one round to hear this cry.

We are not crazy, bad or weak.

Only to end our pains is what we seek.

Oft we keep these troubles to ourselves

For we feel that no one can be of help.

But whatever there might be ahead

My listless life just drifts on by
Like the clouds that float up high
All is still. I see nothing move.
And of all things I disapprove.

And so turn thy wheel. Let life be good.
Then let us all be understood
Let the Sun now break through.
Let this golden globe echo my life's view.

Take me from this world of trouble
Prick and pop this secret bubble
And through the tears of heaven let m...

Watch the water slowly flowing down,

Whilst it makes a soft and gentle sound.

This pleasant scene seems to speak to us,

To say, 'be calm and do not rush'.

One really must appreciate such beauty,

And may even say that it is our duty,

To witness such relaxing peace.

A feeling I wish would never cease.

No, there does not exist a perfect person

Or a perfect scheme of life,

And there is no path all smooth to travel,

With all happiness and with no strife.

And while cannot turn back time

We may amend our mistakes

And we can then learn of them

No matter how long it may take.

So patience must be our lifelong guide,

And not to dwell into despair

Les Miserables

O Les Miserables, for short Les Mis,
Must be the greatest show there is.
It is one that should not be missed,
As it evokes all feelings that do exist

It contains much hope but can be tragic,
But it amazes just like magic.
It talks of justice and of redemption.
It is gripping and full of tension.

We witness the struggles of Jean Val Jean,

Sherlock Holmes was one of a kind,
Having such an extraordinary mind.
He lived with Watson at Baker Street,
Where with his clients he would meet.

With Holmes and Watson we go on such travels
To see how many mysteries Holmes unravels.
And for each case he would construct
Solutions with great powers to deduct.

Sometimes before a case would begin,
Holmes might like to play the violin.

And just like the Sun it is shining as bright.

It brings me contentment and with peace and calm

So resplendent and incredibly soothing.

We may all love the summer weather,
And some may be obsessive
But we have such heat right now
That it is incredibly oppressive.

And while it should be nice and pleasant
Right now the heat is too extreme,
And the boiling hot Sun we suffer here
Is one of the greatest we have seen.

We puff and pant and are soaked with sweat,
Thinking: 'How much hotter can this get?'
Or 'if only I could ...

O karma will always prevail

Although it may take many years

Then it shall be understood

Why you cried those tears

So in time one shall receive

Just exactly what one should

And be seen for what you are

Whether it be bad or good

And even in your darkest hours

Know ahead of you shall be light

So if you want to challenge life

Don't give up without a fight

I love to write poetry,

As it gives me vent for my expressions.

And I believe it a more peaceful way

Than turning to aggression.

Of all the words that I could choose

I am in the main seat of control.

To show my thoughts and feelings, 

And exult the reader's soul.

And when I find my inspiration,

I ponder - what is my next direction?

And though I find it hard ...

Our Sun - it comes out every day.

It shines for us and it is here to stay .

It is a star of liquid gold:-

A special treasure to behold.

It brings us warmth and it gives us light.

An eternal globe - burning bright.

It is a gift which is enchanted, 

And it is is something that we take for granted.

And so appreciate this immortal sphere,

For what would we do if it...

Feelings

I never like to be ANGRY as it is an awful feeling.

As often we do regretful things when all tempers hit the ceiling.

Because after that YOU might be the one who ends up getting blamed!

And then it may be YOU who feels the GUILT or SHAME!

I never like to feel BORED and have all my interests unoccupied.

For it is my home and favourite city.

The people there are always friendly

And the parks are very large and pretty.

There is so much to see and do,

And it's such a special place.

It is famous for so many things,

From Raleigh bikes to lace.

Samuel Johnson was his subject.

The task took our Bozzy time and toil

Until The Life was considered perfect.

From the beginning to the end.

He can captivate and be cunning.

In his movies one must be drawn in

With his gripping stare and sinister grin

Are often crazy or rather wild.

And the films of his I always crave.

A role for which he won an award

Was of a man in a psychiatric ward.

And from day to day should be the same

Whether you be a king or a slave.

We should be the same between that break.

To have the same attitude and qualities,

Our role in this world and how to perceive.

The same things that we love and hate.

And to where does it then go?

For it seems no-one can ever know.

But others may think that this is wrong.

So time can be our enemy,

But if broken you shall feel the sting.

And firstly trust must be earned.

For it is a lesson to be learned.

It is most important when one is low,

And to be with them and not to go.

So show them that you are still there,

And also that you truly care.

When one is in a poorly state,

While some of them are not.

Or made up as we go along?

Will we be weak or strong?

Can we choose to write the scripts?

Can we choose how it all ends?

Shall it finish good and happy?

Summertime

This summer season must be the best,

For it is when with the world I am most impressed.

It is time to be out and to have constant fun,

To be under blue skies and the endless Sun.

Time for scorching hot days and muggy nights,

To see smiling faces all filled with delight.

It is time to relax and time to unwind,

While all about you there is joy to find.

And gone is each idea and sensation.

The prettiest pictures of beauty are formed by nature's own.

Look out for it is free and always alone.

We may see behind a sky that's blue and bold

And the wind which swirls in a wavy path

Blows the tears of heaven to create a shallow nature's bath.

And by vast flying vapours various moulds are made,
