Twas The Night Before Christmas
Twas the night before Christmas and all through the house,
The puppies were squeaking an old rubber mouse.
The wreath, which had hung merrily on the door,
Is scattered in Pieces all over the floor.
The stockings that hung in a neat little row,
Now boast a hole in each one of their toes.
The tree was subjected to bright eyed whims
And now although still splendid is missing some limbs.
I catch them and hold them, "Be Good", I insist
With a lick they run off to see what they have missed.
And now as I watch them a thought comes to me,
That theirs is the spirit that Christmas should be.
Should children and puppies again show us the way,
And teach us the joys that should be Christmas day.
Could they bring us the message that's written above,
And tell us that most of all "Christmas is Love".

.........to Jemma with love
"Zoe"
Weep not for me though I am gone,
Into that gentle night.
Grieve if you will, but not for long,
Upon my soul's sweet flight.
I am at peace, my soul is at rest,
There is no need for tears.
For with your love I was so blessed
For all those many years.
There is no pain, I suffer not,
The fear now all is gone.
Put now these things out of your thoughts,
In your memory I live on.
Remember not my fight for breath,
Remember not the strife,
Please do not dwell upon my death,
But celebrate my life.
