Irritating Time.
It quickens and it slows, In opposite directions, It teases and it taunts, And it plays with my affections.

Your my little sis, just not by blood, Only known each other a few years, but your my best bud. You're always there to lend an ear, A shoulder to cry on when my tears appear.

Just beyond the sunset. Someone waits for me. Just beyond the sunset. Lies my destiny. Where the purple mountains. Lie in deep tranquillity. There I’ll find the treasure. Of love eternally.

Soothing colours that surround me and my world, I would mother them if I could. We take them for granted- pink, blue and red, They are hardly ever mentioned or even said.

An Interesting Amble
#movement. Ambling in Ambleside. Autumnal air on my face. Alone with my ample aspirations. Absolutely ace. An amble in autumn. An appreciation of awe-inspiring appeal. Awash with ambers and auburn.
