The Other Side of Me

Do you know,
the other side of me?
Where the grass is greener,
and the soul is darker.
Do you know only,
my second face?
Not like the rest,
the one I keep for best.
Do you know,
if this is sunny side up
heads up, tales down,
turn that frown
upside down?
I think you know,
Little Miss Sunshine,
but have you met Judy
within or without?
Do you know,
the essence of me?
Not that of vanilla,
of sugar and spice,
but one of fear.
Do you know,
the other side of me?
Where the grass is greener,
and the soul is darker.

You really are quite rude!
It is beyond the pale,
that all you do is bitch, and moan,
and rant to me, and wail!
Yet, I am quite astounded,
you never seem to learn,
you beg and plead,
for my advice…
then do what your heart yearns.
You never seem to listen,
to anything that’s said,
we swirl around,
the same merry-go-round,
you hurt my dizzy head!
For all these years I’ve known you,
I’ve come to realise,
you’re simply just,
a drama Queen,
with selfishness your vice!

Really useful to know!
I did a post about this last year when I created my own blog button that you can see in my side bar, but over the last few weeks I’ve been asked by a few people how to make one. So I will give the quick and easy way to make one.
Step One:
Go to Pixlr. Here is where you create your button’s image. You can use your own photos and add text. Anything you like. Once you’re done save it. The usual size for a button is 125 pixels x 125 pixels.
Step Two:
Go to Photobucket. Create an account if you don’t already have one. You will then upload the image you created to the site. Don’t worry it won’t be public view unless you say it can be. Once you have uploaded it the site will give you some codes for the photo including a…

I’m whacked out on sugar,
my mood it is high,
I’m giddy and playful,
just look at me fly!
No need to worry,
I’m prepared for the crash,
I have foamy bananas,
in my secret stash!

Motorway driving
lights whip by
wipers wiping
mists spray high
Visibility low
concentration high
cheek by jowl
lorries flash by
Black night darkness
heavy in heart
low visibility
from the start
Cat’s eyes visionary
unnoticed by day
celestial markers
guiding the way
Motorway driving
a challenging night
homeward I’m bound
destination in sight

Trilogy

The moon and I,
we are like that –
She said…
crossing her fingers,
behind her back.
The sun and I,
I cannot lie…
We crossed our paths
behind a cloud,
his face does hide.
The world and I,
we are as one,
soul mates and lovers,
a trilogy –
with the moon and sun.
