Living on life’s terms

​We will all encounter changes in life, 
We will face a change when things turn on their head, 
Some things are managed by free will and others are hasten decisions that are led. 

Life is a tapestry
It will encounter many turns that derive,
I look towards God always, a prayer can make the difference to when you thrive. 

Life can be good,
It’s a prayer that captures hope, 
No point arguing right now, that lowers the spirits down the slope. 

You see, you are blessed when you pray
As long you give thanks to your higher power, as those opportunities give you moments to be okay.

Life is a mixed bag
Life can be grand on this path, 
But people introduce chaos into the mix,
As I prefer is a solution.. a chance to bring on board a worthy fix.

A poem’s purpose

​A poem makes you think
Or is it an opinion that causes you to blink?

People can write with love, or pain held inside,
Today you are able to find a poetic solution in order to strive.

And as things don’t work out the way you want, yet that is character to lift the soul,
How do we learn developing the character God wants us to be,
Remain humble, find a solution and set the feeling inside free. 

The poem is an art that’s full of creative words,
The walk we discover can cause challenges which brings us growth, 
We are moving closer to our mortality therefore accept when you coast. 

The poem can speak how you feel 
The poem can be a moment to bring laughter, 
A poem can be anything you want, even an array of words to bring forward your view,
An open mind of literacy and putting your heart on the sleeve, 
these moments you won’t be able to lose nor choose to leave.

The love of writing….

​Writing is freedom
Writing doesn’t argue back, 
Writing doesn’t interrupt you, unless you ‘over think’ what you want to say
Just write it down and learn the art to be in the present.. and stay. 

Writing is a perfect tool
Writing states the place you are currently at, 
Writing is elevating sometimes… and can switch so aptly… just like a drop of a hat.

Writing is feelings expressed in a free flowing sense
Writing is a blessing from God for you use, and released many feelings that make you tense.

Writing is humbling 
And can be professional too, 
Writing is motive to express… just get a pencil, pen and paper prepared
As thoughts from the heart can be private or easy to declare.

This A.A. Life

​This life is brilliant 
Well I suppose it’s been a pivotal time to be dry, 
I no longer crave for drink of alcohol, compared if I kept going I would inevitably die. 

This A.A. life you meet friends quickly
And if you are empath then you shall meet more, 
You will give a chair and learn from mistakes that you once adored. 

You see life as a recovery alcoholic is a blessing 
It’s a second, third, fourth or further chances to work the programme and make amends
The journey of sobriety has now become a loyal and humble friend. 

I knew I was an alcoholic since I was a young boy drinking that fosters, from which I liked the buzz
The endorphins which are released in the body to give you a thrill, 
Next minute it becomes a part of your life, which is a telling chill. 

I am pleased I stopped in the nick of time
I had to do it on my terms, but accepting God as my divine. 

The A.A. Rooms are supportive and loving 
The A.A. Rooms are welcoming and my family today,
May you find peace with your soul, and through your higher power you can obey.

“581 days sober… keeping away from people I need to keep away from and love who I want to love…..”

Dear Lord

​Dear lord I remember 40 years ago like yesterday, 
those distinct moments when I was a child. 
When often I would experiment and go that bit wild. 

Dear Lord
I pray for you to stay, 
I know you do.. it’s me who tends to stray. 

That’s why prayer is important for the heart
It balances our conversations and makes us stay humble, and not cause that manic start. 

Today is all I have 
Today is all you have, 
I know that sounds finite but its the truth.. that’s what I feel, 
The power of now is the guide, as ‘moments’ today can become surreal.

The power of ‘NOW’

​What do you do when nothing is working?
Do something?
Or pull yourself together and face it head on;
How many times we shall get it wrong…

It’s about the ‘now’ and the way you move forward, 
Writing these words and finding your path, 
The light of hope, is to remove any forms of wrath.

You may understand these words, you may not
I am staying with God today, that is worth a humble shot. 

My way is through a prayer
Yet the higher power that hits me spiritually is my guide,
Today is all we are promised, as I won’t ever let my spirit divide.
