Bridging A Gap Of Lack Of Understanding How Sea Creatures Really Are.....

 A huge humpback whale

Trapped by a certain kind of fishing net

She could have died almost certainly

More struggle less strength

Life in her beautiful big eyes fading

A stranger in a boat

Was diving not far away

Perceived her iminent plight

Not able to breathe properly

Very quickly four compassionate strangers

Saw the offending nets

Cut them all 

Able to free her not an easy job

A huge mammal tons of size and weight

She did not struggle

Her mournful cries touched their hearts

They did not stop till

Until every bit of the net was destroyed

Feeling life back in her

She swam around them gently

Nudging each one saying thank you

Story made me want to cry

How many more whales must die?

The World Was Awaiting Something That Had Not Yet Happened........

 An old Pier bridge

Well worn planks

It was slowly wearing away

Planks creaked as he walked along them

With what was to come 

They would yet see another day

Dark foreboding clouds

Were building up in the West

A glimpse of sunlight

Was still shining

He felt a very cold shiver

The calm, the silence

Would not be for long

Without knowing tomorrow 

Tomorrow would be World War Two

It was something he could not yet fathom

But coming he knew it was

Two British small flags

Waving away in the sea breeze

They had been put on a small child´s sandcastle

He felt goosebumps all over

Lots of shivery cold

He walked into tomorrow very quickly

A war that no one wanted

Was still yet a story to be told.

Discarding Fishing Hooks, Man Saved A Baby Swan.......

 Deftly wrapped the baby swan

In his arms

Sat down on him

So he could not move

Someone had spotted the baby swan 

With a treble hook

A treble hook in its beautiful long neck

It took three moves to free him

Free him from that terrible plight

Baby Swan did not put up a fight

The hook was so tight

It was not an easy job

Expert fella looked inside the beak

Wire was trapped right down inside

Poor baby Swan could have died

Luck had it that the whole wire came out

Expert fella took him back to the water

He fled back to his family

Expert fella this person says

Thank you so much for saving him

It seems he rescues them on a regular basis

All hooks should be discarded safely

Thank you very much all.

Seeing Into The Future........

 

A famous comedian now long gone

Best in this country

No script needed only himself

Twas himself that still makes us all laugh

On a video short made by I don´t know who

Famous comedian takes a look into the future

The future of the year 2030

Future of us humans

He came back from the future

Saying to us now

We are and still will be humanly intelligent

Will still be able to laugh

In spite of what goes on

Able to laugh and how

Lest we forget and not learn from the past War

Because freedom needs to be right at the front

Right at the front of what we are looking for.

A Portrait Of Wounds Inflicted......

Although in so much pain

Lying on his stomach again

He struggled to breathe

Asked his friend that if he could not make it

To paint a portrait of him

Of him with his back

So all could see the wounds

That had been inflicted on him

Make it he did

However his friend was faithful

Painted a portrait of him

All wounds included

So that others could learn

From so much cruelty inflicted

Made quite the impact predicted.

Dark Numbers, Dark Days But They Got Away....

 Both little girls stood like firm solid statues

They had heard a command to stay very still

To wait till it was all over

So they did just that 

Wait and wait although so many dark days ahead

Tanks and lorries turned up one day

That was how they got away

From hell on earth

They both still carry a reminder 

A reminder on their arms

Even now the darkness of those numbers

Still remains yet because they stayed still

Firmer than a rock right in their place

They were not being tricked any more

Life opened up for them another door.

Most Famous Cat Who Is He?

 Who is that cat?
What der you mean that cat?
You know he lives in a certain place
In a country where it rains a lot
He sees them come 
He sees them go
He is not one bit bothered
Just content to see the show
Just happy to get fed
Watching all those scenes
Hearing a lot of things
Mostly boring stuff
His home is fixed in that Number ...
He has seen it all
Does not give a fig for what goes on
Swishing his tail
No making a fuss of the new "entry"
New entry into that number
He would rather nod off into a deep deep slumber.
