My Poetry from the Heart
This poem was one of my first ones, I actually won a poetry competition with it back in 2005.
Crocodile
I am but a lonely crocodile
In this river, I’ve been for quite a while
When a boat comes by
I make a special effort to give them
A big toothy smile
I don’t have many friends
So I like to see boats, every once in a while
Now and again I will go for a swim
I’m sorry if it saddens you
For me to want someone to fall in
What saddens me more
Is when the hunters come
And make handbags and shoes
Out of me and my family for fun
Don’t they know I have feelings
And that ‘I’ am alive
Just one of God’s many creatures
Simply hoping to survive!

In their paradise land
A single man
A soft warm breeze
A lady waiting
Under the trees
He takes her hand
In their paradise land
A single thought
A gentle touch
A loving smile
A lady that’s been
Waiting, for quite a while
She takes his hand
In their paradise land
They stand together
Knowing not what to say
They look at each other
In such a loving way
As they walk hand in hand
Upon the shore of their paradise land
The river of life
That bends and sweeps over
Land so still
You swish and sway
Your way down stream
Like life with its many twists and turns
Quiet, calm and still
Then over rocks you make your way
Taking many chances
Which is safe, which is not
How will you know
Until you try them all
Along the river of life
Just like God
I hold you in my hands
Though you may be tiny
He always understands
He takes away
Your worries and woes
And loves you right through
To your tiny little toes
He guides you, in all you do
He loves you
Just because
You are you
He loves it when
You sing a sweet song
In you
God can see no wrong
You may be tiny
You may be small
But God loves you
Best of all
Be in his hands
Which are safe and strong
Within Gods love
Is where you, and I, belong
Always there for me
He never judges me
He simply cares for me
He never tells me off
He never stands and scoffs
He is simply there for me
For in his eyes I can do no wrong
For him I would sing a sweet song
For his love to be able to shine through
For me to love others too
For I am simply there with him
For he was there before my life was to begin
He watches over me when I sleep
He makes no promises he cannot keep
He loves me with all of his heart
He and I will never be apart
He sends me sunshine every day
He likes me to be happy in every way
Because…………
He, is simply, there for me
