Fight or Fly

-
An idea... or a dream,
Plants a seed inside,
Creating excitement a plenty,
Which can be pretty hard to hide,
Yet voicing it at this early stage,
Can create a rather short 'n' bumpy ride.

Then quietly comes a mountain,
Of research that must be done,
To see what might have to happen,
For it to receive an informed run,
'N' although it can be quite overwhelming,
Persevere... research can be a ton of fun!

Gradually it starts it's growing,
Despite the obstacles in the way,
Clawing it's way steadily through,
Not knowing if all this work will pay,
Yet still it grows on notwithstanding,
Surrounding negativity and challenges each day.

Then come competitors in plain sight,
Leaving for whatever their reason,
Even with doubt playing it's evil hand,
It views quitting equal to treason,
Thus on it continues growing,
Throughout this challenging season.

Finally it starts observing,
All the hard work paying off,
Overcome challenges have taught much,
In preparation for a future rough,
That may be hiding amongst the success,
Practicing their own horrid evil laugh.

Now so close to the top,
'N' yet so far still to go,
Another challenge rares it's head,
One so difficult most would bow,
But on it fights with every strength,
Every thing it has in stow.

With success after this battle,
It still needs to keep on it's delicate edge,
Which can be rather difficult,
Much like balancing on an icy ledge,
One slight slip and all may be gone,
Staying on this point though 'tis it's current pledge.

It's achievements start empowering,
Others to have their turn,
All the learned lessons 'n' strategies,
Becoming legends for the next to learn,
For even once it has eventually fallen,
It's workings may still continue to earn.

Thus why we must keep on dreaming,
Even once we're living one,
For a dream fulfilled must keep on growing,
Improving and enhancing once begun,
So that we can keep on living it,
Working on it whilst having fun.

Time

Time is such a funny thing, It goes by ever too fast, One moment you have all day, And then it’s all gone into the past. Time can get you into trouble, When there is just not enough, Thus it pays to plan ahead, So it doesn’t become too tough. Time can also seem to stand still, Taking seemingly so long, An illusion of a your mind, Bit like a slow classical song. So when for you time is slowly, Waltzing you through your day, Think of those for whom it’s flying, And enjoy your worries away.

‘Tis the Festive Season!

Pudding, turkey, ham and pie, ’tis the festive season that is nigh, Tinsel, garland and candy canes, Join light strings in window panes, Shopping centres hum with sound, As great gifts are trying to be found. Santa Clauses in displays are placed, As a glittering festive atmosphere is faced, Catchy music now constantly playing, Whilst family and friends all come staying, Christmas trees are up and decorated, For some, hiding may be contemplated. As Christmas magic fills the air, It’s sprit creeping in most everywhere, Songs, laughter, smiling children’s faces, Mistletoe hung around near fireplaces, Festive decorations are near and far, There’s even reindeer antlers on the car. Holiday festivities fast on the rise, makes some give stressed or joyous cries, Feasts, games, decor and gifts, Siblings caught up in holiday tifts, Summer sun or white winter snow, Festive parties and barbecues are go, Outdoor activities are all a rage,

Life

-
Like a cherry blossom floating in the breeze, Rainbows over the land with their unique way to please. A mother with her newborn blossoming like a rose, Children with ice-cream, Snowflakes on your nose. Like a wolf howling on a mountain peak, Jet black panther smooth and sleek. Crisp winter winds blowing through the sky, Whilst majestic eagles soar way up high. A soft wind blowing through long hair, Natures beauty is everywhere. Like the Brumbies galloping lightning fast, The world is changing, life may not last. Like the young girl so sweet and pure, One day she’s drunk, the next even bluer. Like the little child with dreams everlasting, Mind full of hope with a fairy tale casting. Life is just life and at times really hard, The mind can be dangerous. Those close can be scarred.
