It's raining orange and yellows the wind whistles in the air and as I wonder about tomorrow there's a hibiscus hiding there her colourful little petals shivers under the wooden chair waiting for the wind to settle but Autumn is in the air.

NaPoWriMo – 7/30 – A Storm Will Rise This Year
Handshakes creating a storm
The toll is certain to rise
I wonder about this year.
A thunderous start to the year
“What’s that?”, their loud voices storm.
Darkening our hope for sunrise.
The truth comes with the sunrise
what is the story, this year
friend or foe, I hear the storm
… a storm will rise this year.

NaPoWriMo – 5/30
Sizzingling yellow sweetness snug in a green jacket whistles above a fire sweating for sweet freedom. I'll eat you from the grill I'll eat you from a tin I'll eat you from your cob Either way, your getting in.

NaPoWriMo – 4/30 – Worst month ever!
If you are a serial singleton and you dance to a spinsters sound then February most of all is the cruellest month around. Society turns to the brightest red raining chocolate and jewellery everyone has a lobster well, except people like me. They'll link their fingers and profess their love hog all the good eateries cock their head and ask out loud Is there something wrong with thee? Because in the month of February when society is pairing some of us are all alone and have lost all sense of caring.

NaPoWriMo – 3/30 – Fan Poem to Shonda Rhimes
I'm the girl who dreams of sunshine but loves dancing in the rain I fight the fight, just to feel fine it's a battle inside my brain. I found you at Seattle Grace I bonded with dark and twisty and now I have a scandalous face and a book that's rather witty. The words you wrote spoke to my soul I spent a long time in fear you've inspired me to reach my goals, I'm going to say YES this year! I wish I'd been on that kitchen shelf and heard the tales you had to tell I imagine even a christmas elf would have been enchanted by your spell. So, THANK YOU for being you and thank you for Mer and Olivia through them I've learnt some truths or at least some good trivia! Shonda, I am totes addicted I HAVE to hear your words There's no way I could have predicted how your work has changed my world.

#iamgrateful for parks and gardens
Pardon?
Me, sitting by the courts of justice
the Australian flag dances at half mast
the constant whoosh of falling water
where seagulls and humans alike
seek refuge from a southern sun
shouting in protest
through the clouds,
We are equal!
Clowns and false smiles
brand us in this moment
like the hot irons
of insensitivity and folly.
Should we listen? Maybe.
Should we do something? Probably.
But, no, we will sit in the park
and toast to OUR reality
let the sun leave its mark
a red mark on humanity.

#iamgrateful for what i accomplished today
I stepped outside my office
and into the blazing sun
one foot in front of the other
that is how my walk was won.
Lorna narrated the road
while music danced in my mind
my eyes started to wander
but my feet toed the line.
Up the hill, around the bend
through the suburban houses
across the park, to the tram
along the coffee houses.
Smashing my goals after work
a smoothie waiting for me
a cold incentive to get home
my lovely summer drinkie.
Feel free to share...
#iamgrateful for hope
Sunshine awakens the moment
the birds are singing a fresh song
sleeping brings a brand new page
as I do the same, differently
the carousel keeps turning
life’s road left in the dust
but every summer morning
is the chance to begin again.
