Wimbledon 2025

So what will you expect

A game of two weeks that will be scrappy and often perfect.

Strawberries and cream 

On the hill of mount Murray 

All the top players will want to get through their side of the draw in a hurry.

Will be it Gauff, Sabalenka, Alcaraz or Sinner?

The changing of the guard is the ultimate winner.

There will be intense drama 

With all types of genius shots hit,

The two or four opposing players all aiming to outwit.

So victory is due two Sundays from now

The dedicated forces shall face sweat on their brow.

Perhaps Djokovic may claim his 25th Grand Slam win?

It’s all about the timing and the self belief for the victor who can face the challenges on the chin.

“Wimbledon 2025..and still upbeat to strive”

My ol’ man

What a geezer my ol’ man is 

He may not be here now, now I’ll know he would instantly take the piss.

Said it as it is

Loved who he loved,

Didn’t suffer fools gladly

And despite his faults, we loved him madly.

He was one of a kind 

Saying: ‘f’#&ing el, what’s your game?

He was a cool fella and knew how to tame.

He was my friend

Someone I genuinely miss,

He would do his best for you, if you showed respect

And like us all… he was handsome…but not perfect.

“Dedicated to Andreas Andrews.. Father, husband, uncle and friend to the world ”

Fondly remembered

Times have passed 

We will all leave this earth one day,

Sad it may sound but the heaven shall pave our way.

There be no more pain

No more discourse to encounter,

We will be with each other, with no bitching or pain

Nasty words won’t be said again.

People who we have said goodbye too

But one day we shall see them again,

Angered souls within, there’s a chance to be saved 

You are no longer a victim on this earth or become a slave.

People who have left you are watching with due intent

God is the orchestrator of our destiny, so do not circumvent.

Today is here 

Tomorrow shall soon arrive,

Remember you are loved eternally, God’s in your heart so pray and become alive.

Bring peace to us all

Lord this week will be so hot

The words from people’s mouths may overwhelm, 

Be still and silent, pray for your family, enemies and your friends

Hope in faith is where it belongs and also depends.

Be kind to your soul

Be kind to your needs,

Do not exceed to the max and compare it to others

This moment is about you, so do not shudder.

People embrace in love

People embrace God who meets your timing when required, 

We are going to a spiritual whelm of hope

So look to the vessel you are gifted with and do not elope.

Remember the heat is only temporary

Do not allow it to fry your temperament and irrational thoughts, 

Remember there is coolness on the other side and we do not need to debauch.

Heat is on

The force of the heat 

The temperature is rising,

We all face these season#, that shouldn’t be at all surprising.

Take your time

Stop panting with dramatic moves,

Stop, stay still, pour cold water on you to soothe.

Be strong in the heat

Stay calm and look to the light,

Soon it will be cold, then you wish the heat was within touching sight.

Surround yourself with calm people

Or just let them dram it up,

There ‘ah ha’ panting behaviour is clearly forgettable, and not to savour.

So keep calm, cool and collected

Pray to God first, the light is perfected.

Show the light

Show the way,

Remember the heat is temporary, so simply stay in the shade today.

For why we don’t always have time to answer questions

I have no time for questions 

All I want is peace,

People trying to winding you up, the tricks on them as you don’t give them an answer in the least.

All I adore is silence 

And chat when I feel like,

Quietness is a calmness, people you wish to avoid that’s not always a dislike.

Times have change 

Digital tools appear to have taken over,

Sad, especially when pen to paper is a natural compression like the scent of ‘sweet clover’.

That silence is invaluable 

Those questions shall never be answered, because there be more of them than questions

Knowing what the person asks, you have a choice to dismember.

Do not fear Elaine

Do not fear Elaine

You are closer to God, through the recovery you’ve abstained.

You have the height to live

To have the hope to drive,

You are wonderfully created by God and you are more than alive.

Your mum is holding your hand

Your hope is time to go forth,

Be patient, simply take your time 

What is behind you shall be left there to recline.

Be hopeful to God

Acknowledge he is with you all of the time,

May the eyes of the window see you through

Tomorrow is another day, where God’s hope shall simply do.

“For my friend Elaine xx”
