Memories



As memories fade
We seek a new day
I didn't have it made
But that does not mean decay

These things make us stronger
Like a caterpillar from its chrysalis
As the days get longer
We realize we were made for more than this

Mediocre life, lots of strife
No longer - no more
Life is getting better
Maybe something good is in store

Haphazard Memories

First time for everything  They say...... Your first love Your heart goes ping It didn't last Feeling like an outcast  Your first alcoholic drink You would not pour It down the sink Your first driving lesson Your very first poem So many firsts I must keep going Your first exam First day of school First time on the internet dating pool First taste of Marmite Did not go down too well The way I reacted  My teacher would tell First tooth grown First embroidery sewn First Pet First House, To Let So many firsts I must keep going First Wedding -  Was not wedded bliss! You hardly had the time to give me a kiss First Pregnancy  Did not go as planned I miscarried The midwife did not let me hold your tiny hand I wanted to keep you But you couldn't be kept First ever period I am a woman now Hormonal, First Row So many firsts I must keep going First time visiting Cambridge  I saw you rowing First time for everything  So they say...... So, I'll just keep going First...

I relinquish your chaos

​ Peace, I feel from up above so grateful to sense God's love confirmation for what is right faith has no sight invisible, but nevertheless, there he does care  about my plight  everything is going to be alright people against me shall not win even if they are kin and I'm classed as not God assures me I won't be forgot Copyright Kizzy York aka K J Oakes 2025

A glimpse of Joy

A weird kind of Joy Unexplained inside A Prayer went up Like a Balloon to the sky Named Joy   Not long afterwards A Miracle, I’m sure I passed you in my car You  were waiting  on the pavement Indescribable Joy   On the way to meet my friend My heart skipped a beat You’d smiled and nodded Would I be yours again,  To love, honour and keep ?   Your text came through You still had love for me I was with my friend by then Drinking a cup of tea Insatiable Joy   It felt like a New Dawn I was eager to rise, And be by your  side - Expectant Joy   You arranged to come and see me I was reassured As I saw you approaching my door. My love for you and your love for me Held no bounds I was so glad you’d come around   Here’s to our future joy That our love will last You’d sent up Prayers too,  You are forgiven The past is the past Forgivable Joy.
