Some people can
It could be said
Drain your soul
While they spread
Their negative thoughts
They can’t contain
With no-one left
They can’t refrain
From trying hard
So bitter to stay
But you can choose
To walk away
(c) K Wicks

When a thought… (poetry)
When a thought
Escapes your mind
It slips away
And yet you find
It lingers still
And does remind
There was a thought
That you should find
Think harder…
(c) K Wicks
Rhyme and Reason
When I Thought… (poetry)
When I thought
Of getting older
I really believed
I would be bolder
Be brave and fearless
Trying to find
The next adventure
Not stuck in mind
But age and time
A toll they took
Life goes on
And still I look
For myself…

It really is… (poetry)
It really is an important must
To know yourself and really trust
That there is dark trying to keep
Your senses numbed and you asleep
But understand, what now seems strange
Just open your mind and want for change
You can’t forget what you’ve been taught
But all the lies, they lead to thought
And in that thought, where you can find
A deeper truth and free your mind
(c) K Wicks
Rhyme and Reason
If, like me… (poetry)
If like me
You always knew
You wanted to write
When up you grew
There is a certain
Peace to find
In words to page
Straight from the mind
(c) K Wicks
Rhyme and Reason
There is much… (poetry)
There is much
That shapes the way
Of how we see
The world today
Perceptions change
And what we find
Is sometimes just
A different mind
Where once before
We thought that way
It is not then
But is today
(c) K Wicks
Rhyme and Reason
It can be such… (poetry)
It can be such
A feast for the eyes
The beautiful colours
Of winters sunrise
It’s quite a treat
I have to say
Such wonderful colours
To start the day
(c) K Wicks
Rhyme and Reason
One day you notice… (poetry)
One day you notice
Grown up you are
Your mind does wander
Back quite far
To think of what
You wanted to do
With your life
But half way through
You really start
To know that deep
Down in your heart
You’d better get on
With what to be
You’re being followed
By mortality
(c) K Wicks
Rhyme and Reason
Just why is it… (poetry)
Just why is it
Quite is so hard
To keep your head
Don’t drop your guard
The living dead
Surround my soul
I need to remember
Life takes its toll
I will be fine
Just need to vent
About my rage
Of years I’ve spent
Of my mistakes
I never meant
To understand
My mind is bent
(c) K Wicks
Rhyme and Reason
As the delicate butterfly… (poetry)
As the delicate butterfly
Passing through
Does flutter by
I follow it and if I try
To work out what
And maybe why
He rarely stops
Or says goodbye
Because of course
He’s a butterfly
Spanish Fritillary Butterfly
