Winter is coming

 Winter is coming 

Stark words ring true 

winter is coming

rainy days versus chilly nights 

rise to roads covered in sparkles 

as the breeze sings 

between the leaves of life

insisting trees shed their skin

embracing the season of white

bitter winds sweep smiles from faces

clouds skip from grey to ivory 

convincing snow to fall

on frostbitten noses 

crimson and draped in ice

Starks are always right in the end

Winter has come and will come again.

the dream 2nd draft

  “Stop moaning will you,” Holly said as I stared at myself in the mirror. “A pink flamingo,” I shot back at her. Her face was crinkled as she tried to hide her laugh. “It says on the invite all non-celebs are to dress as an animal,” she said passing me the white envelope with gold writing. “Why do you get the cat, though?” I asked with a sigh strapping the flamingo head to the top of my own. "I look completely ridiculous, Holly," I said with a bright red face. "come on chick, you look fucking great and keep flushing like that. You will surely be remembered as the flamingo with the bright red face." she said and I laughed again. "you don't have to come," Holly said looking serious.

As we get to the party I can hardly keep the excitement off my face as I watch Ed Sheeran saunter over the dance floor in the bottom half of a panda suit, and crazy sunglasses on his face. “Now I understa

The Dream. 1st draft

  The Dream. “Stop moaning will you,” Holly said to me as I stared at myself in the mirror. “A pink flamingo,” I shot back at her. “It says on the invite all non-celebs are to dress as an animal,” Holly said passing me the white envelope with gold writing. “Why do you get the cat, though?” I asked with a sigh strapping the flamingo head to the top of my own.  As we get to the party I can hardly keep the excitement off my face as I watch Ed Sheeran saunter over the dance floor in half a panda suit. Holly slips off from my side and I stand rooted to the spot as people surround me. An older couple moves from behind me and I notice a bright pink suit. My mind automatically thinks of Professor Umbridge from Harry Potter but when she turns I see she is the Queen. Well, the actress that plays her on ‘The Crown.’ In my head, I have a little fangirl moment like I’m at the end of a dance and you have to do jazz hands. She is talking to a young woman I know but can't place. As I look around s

Divine.

  Divine. I can’t wait to have you inside me, I’m gonna squeeze out every last drop, My mouth begins to water You’re looking so tanned and hot, Your smell is divine and you drive me wild, I want you to be mine, You make my insides quiver with delight, As the warmth slips down my throat, I remember why I want you all the time, Oh, this sweet cuppa tea of mine.
