Sunset

Sunset means everything’s alrightEven though a sunsetMay lead to the dark of night Sunset means the past is out of sightSunset is followed by tomorrow with its new burst of light So hold on tightSunset, won’t mean the end is nigh ©Rob Spencer 2021

Flying Free

I’m bearing allWhile standing tallGot knocked downBut recovered the fall Now I rise up and won’t go downIt’s gonna still be hardBut I’m willing to play my cards I’m flying freeThe breeze will only come from under me I’m flying freeAnd I’m all I should be No chains will be able to tame meNo rulesContinue reading “Flying Free”

Just dropping in

Hi everyone, Been a little while since I posted anything, but as ever, I’ve been far from inactive, both at my regular job and with my writing. I mentioned previously, that I had entered three of my songs into the best lyrical catagory at this year’s UK songwriting competition. At first, I was dissapointed thatContinue reading “Just dropping in”

Back In Time

Yesterday I came across my diary,Not that I keep one anymore,Maybe I should haven’t opened the door,But I didn’t think that far behind,Before I knew it I was back in time, There was the world I’d forgotten,Full of places, people and the things I’ve lost,All the dreams and plans that once were mine,Here I wasContinue reading “Back In Time”

I’m Coming

One day the whole world will see,All the man I am meant to be,The one forced to live behind the dull routine, The one that now only very few can see,The few who have dug deep to find the best of me, The person most of this world has chosen to ignore,One day he’ll shineContinue reading “I’m Coming”

Someone I used to call a friend

Hello, why it’s been a long time, I didn’t even see you there, Funny, but I usually see you everywhere, It looks as though the years have treated you well, As for me, well there are a few stories I could tell Oh, I was just in town, passing through, Haven’t been here for aContinue reading “Someone I used to call a friend”

The flower 🌼

Flower in the garden, Planted with care, Attended to in the soil, Watered for and fed, Springs up, Full bloom, Appreciated right there, For sale sign placed in ground, People move out, New move and build a home, Lawn moved over, Flower in the ground shredded and tossed, all its beauty lost. ©Rob Spencer 2021

Natural Disaster

Looking for a world I remember, One I used to know, It wasn’t perfect And I’ve got memories to show, But love was easy to find, A friend was around and often kind, There was a new dawn every day, Optimism lead the way, The weathered storm came and went, Much of the population were farContinue reading “Natural Disaster”

Thankfully I am back to my usual self and while again I’ve not posted onContinue reading “🍺⌚Time for a quick one?”

Writing for life

Hope everyone is well and keeping safe. I am sitting by the river in the sunshine as I write this. Sure makes me feel life is good. Indeed, I like to walk or sit in the park and such like, especially when the weather is so nice. Makes me forget all my worries and issuesContinue reading “Writing for life”
