June 2014



February 2014 For nephews Matthew and Tim – their courage and perseverance humbles me. They are my heroes. I’m strong in my dreams
Reality, perhaps ordinary
I’m not ‘Wonder Woman’
Well maybe just a little Am I brave, not sure
Hard to be scared
When I don’t know why
It’s my choice what I do I’m a happy sailor
I’m strong in my mind
On my boat with my man
My life’s in control But a dark cloud hovers
A forthcoming storm
Am I brave, not sure
Can I cope with this? An ever present force
Spurs me on
For two men I love
Two lives with no choice Their future unknown
Dreams on hold
Their perseverance
Keeps me in check My beautiful angels
Their plight humbles me
I’m safe, it’s my choice
For them, no choice My angels exude strength
Perseverance and bravery
But who are their angels
In their unplanned journey There’s no safe harbour
Nor calm seas for my angels
No choice, so unfair
I cry, I’m mad, I’m sad Where are their angels!
Are there any angels?
My angels need angels.
On their unplanned journey.
