poem
 
When there was no one about he got himself out
had a right good stretch and a scratch
and set off across Amblethwaite Common
to find a wildebeest or summat to catch

There were nowt but a hedgehog and he couldn't eat that
then he wound up in Hector Scholes yard
where he came nose to nose wi' a rottweiler called Rose
and thought "flippin eck she looks hard"

The rottweiler were nice cos she stopped and thought twice about swallowin' our poor Dave whole
and said "alright there love then says "heavens above,
you need a good feed wheres me bowl"

mythy 10-07-2014 08:57 AM

poem
 
She says "here have some dinner fore' you get any thinner
I could play Auld Land Syne on yer ribcage"
she says "I like skinny blokes but your havin' a joke
think you'd never bin fed since the ice age

With the flame from the Amblethwaite Cokeworks
reflectin' in't pond underneath
she looked quite attractive stood there in the dusk
wi' a sparkle to her eyes an' her teeth

mythy 10-07-2014 09:04 AM

poem
 
She invited Dave to stay at her place that night
a blue Bedford van she called home
and the two of 'em got dead nice and cosy
as snug as two nits in a comb

Now while Rose were quite happy confined to the yard
our Dave were bored out of 'is skin
so he went out the next day sayin "I'mount the goin' for some prey
don't cook utowt I'll bring summat in"

There not much call for a jackel in Amblethwaite, but
there no gazelles, no wildebeest n'that
no wide desert plains and no pampas nor nowt
unless you count the spare field by the flats

mythy 10-07-2014 09:16 AM

poem
 
but he found himself on Amblethwaite high street
where the butcher were unloadin' 'is van
so Dave went to ground till there were no one around
and jumped in and made of wi' a ham


Now Rose were that used to eatin' pedigree chum
that she didn't take kindly to changethey'd
so bein' polite she just buried it that night
and Dave didn't think anything strange

So once they'd got used to each others strange ways
and adapted their lifestyles to suit
they lived out their life like husband and wife
and had three lots of puppies to boot

mythy 10-07-2014 09:21 AM

poem
 
It's sad I suppose that poor Dave and Rose
passed on many years ago now
and though they've long gone their legend lives on
if you listen I'll tell you how

You see all the dogs in Amblethwaite be they collies or poms, chihuahuas, alsatians or pugs
they've all got that sparkle in their eyes and their teeth
and they've all got right sticky up lugs.

the end ta very glad

That Time of Year
 
That time of year again
Summer fading
A warm memory
Leaves changing colors
Cooler nights
Bonfires roaring
Hot chocolate
A treat to warm the soul
The holidays are coming
Grab your loved ones hands
Take a walk
In the chilly air
Cherish these moments
Of serenity and bliss
Remember to laugh
Remember to smile
And most of all
Remember to love
With all your heart

PoeticWitch 10-21-2014 02:42 PM

Cold and Gray
 
Cold and gray
Rain drizzling
Even the color of the changing leaves
Are muted and drab
By this miserable weather
A sense of sadness
Depression so overwhelming
I beseech the Mother
I plead with the Father
Let sun shine on us again
To feel the heat
Sink deep down
Into me
Winter is coming soon enough
Leave off the gray
I don't mind the cold so much
Because I can bundle up
But I miss the sun
Only fall and already I am over
This gray and miserable weather

Big or Little
 
In the grand scheme of things
Where am I?
For that matter
Where are you?
Are we meant to be
The low man on the totem pole
Or maybe
The first President of the Intergalactic Galaxies
Who are we in this world of ours?
Who were we in our past lives?
Joan of Arc
Or maybe
Napolean
Can we be important?
Without some fancy title?
Or are we insignificant
But still hold the title of CEO
Of some Fortune 500 company
All this thinking
Where does it get me?
Do I want to be a big fish?
Or is it better to be a little fish?
How about I just be me
And be happy
No matter the big or little
Of my place in life

All Hallows Eve
 
All Hallows Eve is fast approaching
The time the veil is thinnest
Dead are closer
And the Living
Go on living
We have forgotten the old ways
To pay respect
To those who have already moved on
To the next world
To celebrate their lives
And ask for guidance
And protection
From those with dark intentions
So Living remember well
Not all Spirits are evil
And you should always respect the dead

My Forever Muse
 
I sit here
Next to you
Wanting
To touch you
To love you
You are my Muse
The power to light a fuse
In my heart
Down my fingertips
Until these words pop out
Creating beauty
Because of you
Wanting
To please you
Because I need you
You are my one and only
The only one I need
I am no Angel
That is true
More like a Devil
But it doesn't matter
Or so it seems
You love me anyways
I thank the Mother
For creating you for me
I thank the Father
For leading you to me
Always
Blessed Be

My
 
My rock
My weakness
My blanket
My guardian
My comfort
My button pusher
My heart
My soulmate
My bestfriend
My worst enemy
My naysayer
My yes man
My dear
My pain in the ass
My husband
You are all of these things to me
All the good
All the bad
Through thick and thin
Til death do us part

A Mood
 
A mood..
A mood!!
I am in a mood!
I say!
Did you hear me?
I am in a mood!
Don't tell me to smile!
I don't want to hear it
Why can't I be in a mood?
Relish it a bit!
Then let it go
Who are you to tell me?
What I should and should not do?
Accept my frown
But telling me to smile
Will surely get a glare
If I am nice about it
If not, you might want to run
Leave me to my mood!
It is mine!
And mine alone!
My damn mood!
So go tell someone else to smile
Or some bodily harm might be done

The Golden Years
 
To age
To grow old
To learn wisdom
To live the Golden Years

Is a gift
Is tough
Is a trail of patience
Is the hardest thing to do

Men age
Looking sophisticated
With grey and bald spots
And laugh lines

Women age
As if fighting a battle
Wrinkles and extra hair
And dye jobs out the wazoo

There is a certain look
That the young have
A look of the innocent
That you can see from a mile away

To be able to live
To your Golden Years
Is the greatest gift
The Gods/esses could give

PoeticWitch 12-11-2014 11:41 PM

Such is Life
 
Not even forty
Already feeling sixty
Wishing for twenty
Such is life

You are a kid
And enjoying it
You are a kid
But want to be older
You are older
But want to be a kid again

Such is life
You are never where you want to be
But maybe
You are where you need to be

You want more
More money
Bigger house
Nice car

You want less
If you didn't make so much
You wouldn't pay so much to the goverment
Smaller house
Cheaper car

Children so wonderful
So precious and adorable
Then they grow
Give me give me give
More money more money
Give me money and I hate you

When did your children become such brats
They want want want
And they bleed you dry
And you wonder if they will take care of you in your dotage

Such is life
Such is life
Such is life
Then you die

Christmas Blues
 
Here it is
Christmas day
A day
Of family
A day
Of friends
Of loving
And cherishing
Or so it is suppose to be
A Grinch
I am not
A Scrooge
Oh no not me
But to be true
This holiday
Wether it is for Santa
Toys and joy
Or for Christ
Most holy of births
Is lacking
Any feeling
Of comfort and joy
Gimme Gimme Gimme
That is all I hear
From the young
And from the old(er)
At night
The lights are so bright
That the earth itself
Is brighter than the sun
More lights and more lights
Oh my god!
Look at my electric bill!
Maybe my giving mood
Is broken
Maybe my tenderness so mild
Is tied up in knots
Deep in my gut
But believe me
My heart isn't small
Just so very empty

PoeticWitch 01-15-2015 04:55 PM

Spark
 
Deep within me
A spark
My creative core
To be released

With love from all
With song and dance
With inspiration from above
With the gift of life from the earth


Painting pictures with words
Conveying emotions through thought
Creating art
To express my love for all

To turn a tragedy
Into comfort
To put a patch on your soul
And pay homage to the suffering

My words a prayer
Asking and pleading
To heal the hurt
To love the unloved

Seeking forgiveness
Sending these words
Up into the universe
Only the Gods know where

Words on a Screen
 
Words on a screen
Scrolling by
Some joking
Some loving
Some harsh

Words on a screen
Scrolling by
You read them
I read them
We all read them

Words on a screen
Scrolling by
All the same words
I cry and you laugh
Just because I am not you and you are not me

Words on a screen
Scrolling by
We cannot
Control
The interpretation of the words

Words on a screen
Scrolling by
We cannot always think
Before we speak or type
The interpretations has gone all wrong

Words on a screen
Scrolling by
Please
Lets remember
They are just words on the screen

An Unspoken Promise
 
Far ahead of me
Quite a distance before me
I see a light
Yellow warmth flickering
Enticing and beckoning
An unspoken promise
Of welcome and friendship
Of familial love
So tender
Like tinder
A spark igniting
A roaring fire
That warms us all
Reminding me
Of hugs and kisses
As we were laid down to sleep
Now that we are grown
Our parents do not give us such goodnights
But every night
The Mother and The Father
The Goddess and The God
Kisses us and blesses us
Because though we are adults
In our human realm
We are yet babes
To these Celestial beings

Another Year
 
Another year has passed
Older but not much wiser
40 a number
Old society standard
For being over the hill
New society standard
I have 10 more years
To trudge up that hill
Lets forget it all
Lets dance in the sunlight
Be thankful for what was
And what will be
Years of love and heartache
Years of good friends
And crazy family
Mending bridges
Bandaged hearts
I am thankful
For the years the Goddess has given me
Will be thankful
For the years the Goddess might give me
Will give thanks
As it all comes to me
Blessed be for you
And for me

The Blame Game
 
Discrimation
Is a blame game
I did it
You did it
Who did it?
Tears from my eyes
Pain in my heart
One for all
And all for one
A very rare ideal
In the human race
Your color is different
Your love is different
Your ideals are different
Thus they must be wrong
In the eyes of society
Why can't we work together?
For the common good
No matter your look
No matter the way you love
No matter the broken ideals of society
The rich get richer
The poor get poorer
Black, white, or purple
In the end we all starve
Come take my hand
Hold my heart
In the end we all want the same thing
Just from a different view
Equality means equality

Thoughts and Dreams
 
Thoughts and dreams
Floating in my mind
Sparks firing
As my imagination
Runs wild
I cannot focus
They will not come together
To create a story
That all might enjoy
Holy Mother!
Help me to direct my thoughts
Into something productive
I just want to share the beauty
That I see in my mind
With all who might listen
Help my bring it all together
For me as well as them
As above, so below
Blessed be

Hello From The Other Side
 
Hello from the other side
I have tried calling many times
But the wires aren't reliable here
A place like no other
Neither heaven or hell
I just wanted to apologize
To the family I left behind
I was only human when I walked on that side
I made many mistakes in my short lifetime
I wasn't the best that I could be
It might have looked like I never tried
But believe me I did
But I realize now it wasn't enough
For all of you and even me
So please accept my apology
In the next life I will endeavor to be better
Maybe we will meet again
In the next lifetime

Your Mind!
 
Your mind!
I love your mind!
How quick witted you are!
But never cruel!

Your mind!
Your mind tickles mine!
Inciting the sparks to fly!
The banter almost orgasmic!

Your mind!
Your mind so beautiful!
Like a new kind if flower!
A flower of every changing colours!

Your mind!
Your mind so beautiful!
So wonderful that I want to pet it!
So wonderful, I just want to eat it up!

A Golden Age
 
I am of an age
A woman of an age
When everything starts
To show the world
That gravity works
All to well

I am of an age
A woman of an age
When I might be taken seriously
If it wasn't for that
HUGE UGLY word
Menopausal

I am of an age
A woman of an age
And of a size
That society thinks
To be ignored
To be put aside

I am of an age
A woman of an age
I will not be put to the side
To be forgotten
I am a force to reckoned with
Unforgettable and unstoppable

I am of an age
A woman of an age
I have come far
And have farther still to go
I have earned my wrinkles
With laughter and tears

I am of an age
A woman of an age
Where my wisdom
Will get me far
But my attitude
Will get me farther

I am of an age
A woman of an age
I have been the maiden
I have been the mother
I am of an age
The crone do I manifest


I am of an age
A woman of an age
A Golden Age

Save Me
 
Crying in my room
Crying in the shower
Crying and hiding
Ripping apart
Tearing apart
Breaking apart
Crying in the morning
Crying in the afternoon
Crying at night
Shattering like glass
Crumbling like stone
Splintering like wood
Crying in my mind
Crying in my heart
Crying in my soul
Begging silently
Imploring silently
Silently asking
For help
For support
Just for a little comfort
Falling away
Sliding away
Plunging down in to the abyss
Feeling invisible
Feeling disoriented
Feeling as if my SELF is vanishing
Body hurting
Mind hurting
Soul hurting
Please someone
Save me
From myself

PoeticWitch 09-12-2016 12:47 AM

Going Going Gone
 
Heart beating
Breath escaping
Head bopping
To the beat
Feet moving
Hands waving
Body swaying
To the music
My toes
Can feel
The very soul
Of the Mother
Under my feet
The Mother
Is calling
Calling
Me home
Pushing
This wild feeling
Through
My whole entire body
Like the blood
That flows through my veins
The mothers call
Urges me home
Dancing wildly
Singing to my heart and soul
I can never escape
Home
She calls to me
Like a warm bed
On a cold winters night
Like a moth to the flame
I am listening Mother
I am going
Going
Gone
To find my home
It is time to heal
It is time to mend
It is time to be reborn
To recharge my batteries
I am listening Mother
I am going
Going
Gone

Poet
 
Once upon a time
There was a girl
I knew her well
Her name was Poet
And a poet she was
Writing and musing
Of everyday things
Poems of love abound
More poems though
Of noodles
Of seasons
Of colors
Of friendship
And of course heartache
She put to pen
Every thought
To pass through her mind
Some were beautiful
Eloquent even
Others were weird
Weird and demented
Some even perverted
But then she was a poet
And truly poets
Know the perversions of the world
For the perverse
Make good fodder
For poetry

The Night Mares
 
I lay myself down
Praying for dreams
Praying for the sweetest of dreams
Sweet dreams are made of these
But not for me
The Night Mares are stampeding
Through my dreams
Trampling the fields
The fields of love, life, and laughter
They surround me
Stamping their hooves
Fire in their eyes
Smoke coming out in puffs
From their noses
I spin in circles
Looking for a path of escape
But there is no way for me
To escape the rampaging Night Mares
They raise up
And down they come
Crushing me with their hooves
Breaking and smashing my bones
Overwhelming me with fear and pain
That follows me into the light of day
As I wake covered in a cold sweat
My heart beating so hard
I cannot catch my breath
As I cannot wipe the Night Mares from my mind

When Is Enough, Enough?
 
Enough
When is enough, enough?
So tired of words
Upon words upon words
Of how we as humans
Should be this way or that
But never shows in our actions
We as humans have a choice
To be of a loving nature
Or to be of a wicked nature
Choice is what makes us, us
Humans
What is human nature?
Truly?
Do we have it in our nature
To be altruists?
Or are we truly beasts?
Hidden in skins of a human
When is enough, enough?
Our own Police are being used
Used as soldiers of yesteryear's
To drive the Natives of this land
From this land
Down a trail of tears
Once again
When is enough, enough?
When we as humans
Have the right to cause pain and death
To any living creature
Be it cat, dog, elephant, or whale
When is enough, enough?
Where is God with his righteousness?
Why does he allow children to be abused
And murdered?
When is enough, enough?
When is enough, enough?
When is enough, enough?

Fight or Die
 
Do we fight?
Or lay down to die?
Do we get up swinging?
Or just keep getting kicked?

I am on my knees
Praying for an anwer
From the Almighty
Or my fellow human beings

Waiting and waiting
Straining to hear
An answer
Am I worth it?

Does your life matter?
More than mine?
Whose life is more important?
A man, or a woman, or even a child?

Do we fight today?
Or do we lay down to die tomorrow?
Do we fight for our lives?
Or do we get kicked to death?

I am waiting and waiting
Straining to hear
An answer from humanity
Is there such a thing as compassion?

How much is a life worth?
Is there a price tag?
How much is my life worth?
Or a man, or a woman, or even a child.

Do we fight tomorrow?
Or did we die yesterday?
Do we fight for the lives of those who are to come?
Or do will we kick ourselves for our own stupidity?

I am waiting and waiting
Straining to hear
An answer from the powers up high
Will we survive?

A Witch
 
Which witch is which?
I am a poetic witch
A sensitive witch
A witch of fine design
An artistic witch
A mouthy witch
A political witch.. sometimes
A mental witch
A menopausal witch
An animal loving witch
A witch who lacks patience for those who judge without knowing
A witch is a *itch of course
But only on days that end in y
I am a witch with a morbid sense of humor
Or so I am told.
As a witch I am not green
No warts, but maybe some moles
I have a broom that is in my closet
For I am a clean witch
I do fly the night sky
In my dreams looking for friends and family
A witch who thinks that the Goddess helps those
Who help themselves
A witch such as me will protect the ones I love
And curse those who try to hurt me or mine
A white witch I am not
A black witch I will never be
But my gray robes do not define me
As the Goddess loves me for me
