WORDS DO MATTER
Words Matter
They are powerful and strong
Words Matter
When we are happy, sad or wrong
Words Matter
Slow down when you want to speak
Whether you feel wired, sure or weak
Sometimes it’s best to just hold back
To know the facts before you react.
Words Do Matter.

Earth Day Marriage Ceremony
In this eco-community I thee wed
The earthlings now join a garden bed
To have, to hold, to honour and love
To reduce, recycle and stand above
Neglect, abuse and thoughtlessness
And embrace the oath of reusefulness.
Pledging to uphold basic common sense
Truly the seedling to making a difference
A difference to our holy Mother Earth
And to all that she is worthy and worth.
The pledges between the two betrothed
Do indeed signify a huge workload
For better or worse the vows do say
There just is no other better way.

TYPE ONE POSITIVE
Beneath the dogwood tree I stand
Marvelled by our glorious land
From yard to yard I look and see
What this new life has done to me.
Not a boring day has yet to pass
Some kind of miracle has been cast
The flowers, the trees, the yards and more
Have definitely enriched my inner core.
I now see the forest and the trees
I’ve witnessed the role of bumblebees
I’ve reached out to help those in need
COVID-19 may be a starting seed
Definitely a message for all of us to know
To covet, to hug, to respect and to sow.

Hand and Hug COVID 19 Sonnet

HAND AND HUG
What’s in a handshake that makes spirits soar?
What’s is a hug that says so much more?
They give us the comfort and feeling of love
They give us the person who stands far above
Because of COVID-19 we’re now two metres apart
No handshakes, no hugs makes for one very sad heart
But now we know who our very best friends really are
For me some are close by and yet others are far
The ones who make an effort to help where they can
The ones who allow us to give them a helping hand
The ones who connect through word games and calls
The ones who deliver us plants and colourful dolls
All of those things just like a firm handshake and hug
Are signs of true friendship, comfort and love.
