History frozen in colors grand

Portrait drawn by artists hand

Pictures of how life had been

Ancestors remembered never seen.

Hanging now in dusty frames

Ghostly faces forgotten names

A past that we should not forget

Ignore our history, now regret.

Climb into our family tree

Familial traces you may see

Surprised at what you may find

From a simple picture in your mind.

You haven’t been here in an age

I’ve been checking on your page

Feeling lonely deep inside

My access to your site denied.

Lost, alone, unloved, rejected

Wi Fi cut so disconnected

Will I have to venture out

Stretch my legs go walkabout.

Draw the blinds, see the light

Speak to people, be polite

Or maybe even exercise

I think I’ll just sit here fossilise.

Relax, enjoy, there will never be

This time again for you to see

Friendship, beauty that surrounds

Close your eyes, silent sounds.

Spend too much time hesitating

One split moment meditating. Can

Clear your thoughts of negativity

Will make room for some creativity.

Worrying what others think

Throws you sometimes out of sync

Too often problems you create

Pause a moment – life can wait.

For years we lay down side by side

It’s ages since you became my bride

Through troubled times, wedding chimes

Hills and mountains we have climbed.

Down the years I have to say

You cared for me in every way

Supported me in times of need

From your energy I still feed.

I’ve waited years to hear you say

Not that it matters anyway

For love is shown in many ways

I see it always in your gaze.

Winds whipped westerly while

Bodies bobbed – barely breathing

tormented, trafficked – Tragically torn

Wandering, wounded – Wearily worn

fearful faces – fractured,freezing

Cowering, cramped – Captive courageously Calling – crying

Sinking souls – Searching solace.

Would we warmly welcome – wrap

Or object, obstruct obdurately.

Let love be our lasting legacy.
