Random Poem

I've made it pretty clear that I haven't been posting my poems in the same order that they have been written. Only recently I have dug back out one of my favourite poems that was not just written by me, but with a good old friend of mine.

As I said before, co-authoring poetry brings out a funner side to the actual writing of the piece and creates a sort of background story. For this one, it's clear that this fellow and myself are quite the pair of lunatics!

The poem was written with Kieren Massie, on the 3rd of August 2011, the best summer of my life so far, may I add.

Thanks to all for that, by the way!

:)

Here it is... I just called it "Random Poem".. (if you have a better name for it, drop me a little comment).

Random Poem

Joyful is the sound of the air.
Over in the distance bunnies stare.
All around me it's Autumn space.
Neat and tidy I tie my lace.
Not only me but everyone.
Enemies gone, yet I'm not alone.

Glorious sunshine shall arise.
Lilac tint fills the skies.
Oblivious to the distractions of life.
Rather a fork than a knife.
In the tent we go to sleep
And awake in the morning to hear sheep.

Cautious of the meadow's glare.
"Anonymously we must eat a pear"
Three's a crowd speaking loud.
Howling voices sneaking proud.
Eruptions of birds,
Rattling the herds.
Ignorance.
Now coming belligerence.
Everyone realizes their mistakes;

Having come out of their heartbreaks.
Emotionless bicycles.
Remember the tricycles?
Ages gone by..
Gosh! How does time fly?
Happy monkey says "hello".
Tiny leprechaun, Indian, Chinese people.. rainbow.
Yet, what a world we live in (purple monkey dishwasher!).

Fan-tastic

May the 4th be with you all guys! Okay, so my next one is a tribute to my big sister - whom is celebrating her birthday today. I wrote it yesterday while I was out and about. As many of ye might recall, this is one of the most difficult weeks of the year for us, with Michael's birthday and anniversary - but Caroline's birthday just slots in there, and I thought it would be nice to pull together some words just for her. So I hope you appreciate the name choice, I had a nice wee giggle for myself. Happy Birthday, Caroline.. This is for you. ♥♥♥ Fan-tastic Take the following words, And bring them with you through your life. I want you to know you’re a fantastic person: Sister, mother, daughter and wife. You give everything your best efforts, Even when it feels like the whole world’s on your plate. You may have a load of ridiculous habits, But what counts is your utmost good faith. You’ve taught me lessons no tutor could teach me. You’ve prepared me for the worl...

Christmas 2014

Hey guys! Merry Christmas to you all, and I really hope ye all had a great one! I still can't believe 2014 is almost over.. But I won't start ranting on about it again, don't worry. Instead, I just wanted to catch up on a few things I've fallen back on over the past few months. Between the blog, my personal writing, and the life that I keep subtly bringing into context with my blog posts. Firstly, "Metaphoric Ends" was a complete hit, Katherine loved it.. which made me very happy, I might add. :) We generally grow to love the people we can't. But despite the inconvenience, we still love them. Katherine is one of those people.. ♥ Also... I had completely forgotten about this, and I cannot believe I did! Back in November, the President of Ireland, Michael D, Higgins, came to my national school to celebrate a centenary... Considering he too is a poet, as a gift, the organisers put together a collage of poems written by locals. Two of my personal poems ...

All of Our Old Walls

I wrote this during a free class in school. Despite distractions from those so keen to read it, I managed to piece together what I would refer to as a simplistic poem based on the deepest, and most precious thoughts in my mind. This one is dedicated to Caroline , my big sister. It's very unlike sisters to be as close as we are, so this one's for you. I hope you like it. All of Our Old Walls The time went by too quickly, And we're all grown up now. Our lives have become different: But, at least, we know more how's. How to distinguish right from wrong; And venture through life's song, In a bigger world than the one between All of our old walls. As the clouds roll past on the table, And the words don't spill from my head. I remember all the days we spent together And every single word you ever said. I wonder at times, do you think of me? And our childhood as it's gone? To whisper softly in nostalgia, And, then, continue to go on. I hope yo...
