Im still here as I ever was Said the moon through the clouds Though you wont always see me Cancelled out, disallowed I ll be here as I ever was Shining dark Beneath my shroud Evermore, nevermore Burning black Behind my shroud.... -TJ Sept 2026

Angel, put sad wings around me now Protect me from this world of sin So that we can rise again Oh angel, we can find our way somehow Escaping from the world we're in To a place where we began - Rob Halford

Its true we all have choices but the choices differ wildly Whilst the priviledged man can chose whether to drink spring water or filtered tap water,the less privileged man gets to chose between ditch water or pond water. A point to think about. We are not all in the same position Nor are our choices

Isn't it funny how one day, The car I drive will be nothing but rust, The books I read will be nothing but mould, The words I speak will be nothing but echos, Of memories At best And the body I carry will be nothing but dust Isn't it funny How... #micropoetry #poetry

There is nothing more pleasant than my beautiful England on a late summers day. Where the land meets the sky and the wide open space fills my heart with peace. I could have stayed here forever lost in its vast and silent beauty....

Had a go at a poem about love. Still unpolished but thought I'd share. Not my usual theme. I felt it once. Long ago. Not sure I want to feel it again. It brings nothing but pain, confusion and turmoil. #Poetry #PoetryCommunity #PoetsOfBlueSky

Working out in full sun for hours where its 32 degrees in the shade. Everywhere is so dry. The sweat is stinging my eyes, 2 more hours and I ll have to pack it in. Its just too hot for hard labour....

Is this not beautiful? Take a breath. And take one last look before its gone forever. Because this is already fenced off for more planned mass housing estates. Its a disgrace how little our government values english countryside and disrespects our villages and english traditional country life. 😢💙

3 minute quick fire unpolished poem I wrote today after feeling sad seeing the masses of new housing estates currently springing up on our beautiful countryside Note: these poems are just for me for pure fulfillment of writing and as a release to vent my feelings #PoetrySky #EcoPoetry #WritingSky

Sometimes I feel a complete lack of motivation. I do not want to go to work tomorrow. But I must. I'm so tired. Sleep does not always come easily. I hope it takes me on a sea of warm air, into its simple peace, to a dreamless night where I will wake with a feeling of at least some renewal. Goodnight

My writings are truth. Do you wish me to lie & write about bunny rabbits skipping in the breeze? I can do that, most certainly. But it won't be truth or heartfelt. Though readily easily I can make it look as though it is.... TJ August 2026 ~ exert from "Diaries in the style of Florence"

Sometimes I feel so sad. Like everybutterfly in the world is dead on a grey carpet of ash. And every fish in the sea is trapped in a deep dark cave with sightless eyes of black.I search for a tiny speck of light in the dark. Or a tiny blade of grass among the ash. And with that there is always hope
