Mrs Santa cooks a storm
for this special day
yet her man the Santa
spends the night away
riding away reindeers
dodging violent storms
climbing out of chimneys
tricks of the trade performs
giving the gift of christmas
to kids young at heart
red dress white facial hair
in the costume looking smart
after the feast in solitude
his missus nods off in her chair
the evening news keep blaring on
christmas carols in the air
she dreams of days gone by
before his current role
the money were a bit tight
when Nick was on the dole
came the christmas poems
then the famous Cola ad
brought in many precious gifts
young Nick has never had
his attitude and caring nature
wishing well and sharing cheer
brought him fame out of the parish
giving back since year after year
the story of a well-to-do person
not too young and not too old
kingdom built out of not much
word of mouth and heart of gold

MIDNIGHT POETRY – ‘In Disguise’
lonely passerby
insolent demeanor
face hidden in a hoodie
focused eyes
scanning the surroundings
hands deep in pockets
mischief at the fingertips
on a lookout for treasures
in for a change of ownership
cool wind lifts the leaves
storm is brewing above
dark clouds on approach
the hoodie falls back
revealing mop of hair
over stern face
hurt and unheard
disillusioned with life
the face of a child
in disguise
MIDDAY POETRY – ‘Defined Time’
static noise
on the line
tells me
all is fine
jittery
on edge
coffee
smells divine
beads of color
precious gift
love shared
on a line
life purpose
full of
guided steps
taken by design
for some
its kids
for some its
glass of wine
there is no
right or wrong
a way that is
defined
oneness in
solitude
the life story
of mine
MIDNIGHT POETRY – ‘Have No Shame’
Let your beaming smile glow
Reflect the light of the moon
Beat your heart slow
Until you find your tune
Walk out of the shopping mall
Live in organized fashion
Prop your back to the wall
Grab a book on compassion
Stay on your path, well of the road
Those who practice play the game
Reaching deeper into the code
Loving the past with no shame
Be on time wherever you go
Those who are late are often sorry
When their life changes its flow
Wishful they wrote their own story
Stop and smell the flower bud
Open to full spectrum blossom
Bring oxygen to your blood
Your soul will feel awesome
Like the bullet train on track
Speed of light crushed in an hour
Let the nature have your back
Slow down by an immense power
Rush to nowhere skip out running
Give your body deserved rest
Watch the sunset it is stunning
Stay off your mobile and be blessed
Dissolved In Infinitum
