Cats

What animals make the best/worst pets?

Cats are fun

Cats are free spirits

Sometimes they love you

Sometimes they fight you

They won’t take tablets

They will eat your food

If you turn your back

If you leave a morsel

Will steal your chair

Will hide in mysterious places

Appearing at odd times

Appearing when you least expect it

Get lost when they are due at the vets

Get tangled up in your feet

Have their means of communicating

Have to have their own way!

It would have been…

His birthday,

He was no fool

We would have had on this day

A walk by a pool?

It would have been a grand day

Even if it rained

The sun is shining today

But he’s not here, my friend.

I’m sitting feeling lonely

His life came to an end

He had so much to give

Love and hugs, not only

A great wish to live!

Breakfast

What are your morning rituals? What does the first hour of your day look like?

The excitement of porridge

The joy of tablets

A cool shower

If I can afford it

Trying to get dressed

Without getting tangled

Feed the cats

Work out what I can do today

It all takes time.

Wobbly arms and leg

Don’t help my balance

Feel like I’m moaning again

Let’s just go back

To bed…..

I don’t

How often do you say “no” to things that would interfere with your goals?

Look at the sky, it’s blue,

I love that wonderful hue

I could ignore it

Pass it by

Be driven hard

Ambition charged

But then I’d miss the best of life

While dealing with the anxious strife

No time to stop and stare they say

Is not, for life a good way.

Try not to stress

Though I confess

I walk on sometimes

And miss sunshines.
