BLANK

My bum is sore
imagination never more

lacking

I try and try
but only can sigh

for no words fall on my paper

I sit and sit and twittle my thumbs
swaying my chair side to side

I use to be funny
and quick witted

words rolling off my tongue
dripping onto my page

This evening my mind is a blank
not sure who to thank

for the emptiness of my brain…

Best to call it quits 

for this evening’s attempt 
to be clever

seems 

to be in vain.

OFFENDER

When respect has been breached
an agreement must be reached

The offender not to repeat.

The innocent who forgives 
must not forget 

but also …

must not hold onto
the crime 
and 
offend the offender 
for the rest of his life.

CHOICES

When God gives you a gift
you have a choice
you can…

Thank him 
and 
Enjoy it

Or

Feel unworthy
and 
Fear it will be taken.
