Reflection of puddles (poem)

15 Dec

Reflection of puddles

All those heavy rains have turned nature upon its head.
Some of the treetops can be seen pointing down instead.
Within the reflection of puddles, the world has changed,
The normalities of nature have been rearranged.

An upside-down world can now be seen upon the ground.
Upside-down people on their heads, strolling around.
Ripples from a breeze shaking those reflections about,
But once the breeze passes by, those ripples straighten out.

Reflections within puddles, the sky’s now far below,
Dazzling so brightly when the sun comes back on show.
The suns light bounces, shooting back up into a tree,
Branches usually in the shade, sunlight they now see.

Hills climb the other way, sloping left instead of right,
Upon reaching the puddles edge, vanishing from sight.
The drying of the puddle shrinks this upside-down scene.
The grass restored to where the upside-down world had been.

Leaves within a storm (poem)

20 Oct

Leaves within a storm

Within a gentle breeze, the leaves softly sway;
But beyond the breeze, there’s a storm on its way.
Slowly the breeze grows and the leaves start swinging;
A hint of the winds that the storm is bringing.

The storm soon arrives with its wild winds in toe,
Encouraging all the leaves to dance to and fro.
A few leaves break free, they start spinning in flight,
Skipping down the lane, fading out of sight.

The storm tosses some leaves out from that wild race,
Spiralling them down into a calmer place.
Sweeping them into heaps, resting together,
Into a sheltered spot, avoiding the weather.

Other leaves will ride out the storm, flying high,
Only touching land once the storm has passed by.
Settling down once more as the storm fades away,
Whilst above them on the trees, the leaves softly sway.

The scattering of sunlight (poem)

07 Jul

The scattering of sunlight

The scattering of sunlight dancing through the trees,
The flowers swaying to the sound of the buzzing bees.
Butterflies start dancing with the rising of the sun,
Their colours shining now that another day’s begun.
The birds sing their dawn chorus, greeting the suns new light,
The bees, the birds, the butterflies, to the skies take flight.

The scattering of sunlight spreading across the ground,
The rabbits start emerging to see what can be found.
The deers start wandering, nibbling the leaves and grass,
Taking sips of water from a stream they wander pass.
The otters on the riverbank race along its rim,
Then dive into its water, where they can play and swim

Nature gives to us this world (poem)

29 Jul

Nature gives to us this world

Nature brings the seasons, a changing world all around,
Where all animals roam and plants push up through the ground.
Nature has a rhythm, rotating through night and day,
When darkness comes, nature knows the dawn is on its way.
Winter turns to spring, the flowers awaken and rise,
Spring turns to summer, nature grows under warmer skies.
Summer turns to autumn, the willows begin to weep,
Autumn turns to winter, nature starts to go to sleep.

Nature brings the weather, calm days and violent storms,
Creating the landscape in all its different forms.
Creating rolling deserts, with its camels walking,
Or tropical rainforests, where tigers go stalking.
Near the poles, the polar bears and penguins raise their young,
All over the world the birds fly and their songs are sung.
From the rain on the mountains, the rivers start to flow,
Nature gives to us this world and all the life we know.

Spring is pushing out winter (poem)

29 Apr

Spring is pushing out winter

Spring is pushing out winter as the leaves begin to show,
Blossom’s on the branches as spring flowers begin to grow.
Daisies and buttercups are appearing through the gasses,
The gaps of winter are fading with each day that passes.

The bees are seen once more as they buzz between the flowers,
The sun is getting warmer in between the spring showers.
Summer birds are returning, each day a few more are seen,
Back from the warmer lands, where for the winter they have been.

The hedgehogs appear as they waken from their winter sleep,
Across the farmers fields, lambs can be seen amongst the sheep.
Spring is pushing out winter from the bushes and the trees,
The gaps filling with leaves, swaying gently in the spring breeze.

The wind within a storm (poem)

25 Mar

The wind within a storm

Here comes a fresh breeze,
Brushing through the trees,
Nudging the leaves to one side.
Branches gently sway,
A storm’s on its way,
From this storm nothing can hide.

Strong winds start to blow,
Seeking high and low,
Every crack they will find.
Racing in and out,
Running all about,
Frequently changing their mind.

Some petals break free,
Setting off to see,
What else there is to be found.
The grass laying flat,
To avoid all that,
Staying closely to the ground.

Some seeds are released,
Into this wild beast,
Wherever it blows, they go.
Flying through the air,
They will land somewhere,
Taking root, so they can grow.

This storm’s going past,
It’s fading at last,
Just a few white clouds remain.
The wind becomes calm,
There’s no more alarm,
The grass stands up once again.

Winters Stillness (poem)

06 Jan

Winters Stillness

Winters stillness, no breeze in the air,
A clear sky, no clouds drifting up there.
The sun is shining over the land,
Shedding its light and touching my hand.
A fraction of warmth, only a kiss,
On this cold day, it’s easy to miss.

The trees stand still, filtering the light,
Through their branches, the sun is in sight.
Their shadows grow as sunset draws near,
What little warmth will soon disappear.
Winters stillness, the night claims the day,
In its calmness, a frost’s on its way.

Blue skies from Storm clouds (poem)

05 Mar

Blue skies from Storm clouds

There’s a touch of blue,
Coming into view,
Are those grey storm clouds departing at last?
There’s just a small zone,
Standing all alone,
Does it mean this storm is now in the past?

It’s slightly less dark,
It’s not quite so stark?
There’s another patch of blue I can see.
There’s a patchwork sky,
I can see up high,
From those storm clouds, the sky is breaking free.

There’s more blue than grey,
A brightening day,
Even the sun is now showing its face.
It is getting warm,
From this fading storm,
As the sun begins to dry up this place.

Now it is just blue,
With no clouds in view,
The storms but a memory in my mind.
The sun is on show,
So out I shall go,
To enjoy the freshness, it’s left behind.

A touch of winter sunshine (poem)

08 Jan

A touch of winter sunshine

A touch of winter sunshine,
On a cold and chilly day.
A moment of feeling fine,
Before the sun fades away.

A chance to see a clear sky,
Frost sparkling in the light.
Winter’s sun just passing by,
Before dragging back the night.

A moment of blue splendour,
So crisp, so bright, and so clear.
Winter’s world there to adore,
Before the dark night draws near.

A time of winter’s pleasure,
A freshness at winter’s noon.
A moment we can treasure.
Before the sun sets too soon.

A chance to refresh our lives,
Enjoy winter at its best.
Watch how the winter world thrives,
Before going home to rest.
