written own poetry book

Globster · February 2022

Hello Scope online community

I have just written my own poetry book. I would love to hear what scope online community feel about my own poetry book

Living with Disability

Every day we face new challenges in our lives.

Although it takes us time to find solutions to our challenges.

We strive each day to find solutions to our challenges one day.

It is important we think positively and have a clear mind.

For so long we have been defined and categorised

But no more we all have a fantastic creative flair we should use to bring change.

We need to join together and we can bring change.

Looking past the wheelchair

We get people staring when out because we are in a wheelchair

Our wheelchair is our legs and our way to get around.

I politely smile back

I have lost track of how many people have stared because I’m in a wheelchair

I wish people would look past the wheelchair.

I know it will hard to change people’s perceptions.

Fearless

I don’t care,

I use my failures as my strength;

I use my poetry writing to express my feelings

My poetry writing has opened many doors for me.

I gained fantastic confidence from sending my poetry writing to many opportunities where some I have been successful and so I have not much time to hone my poetry writing skills.

Each day I do drills to develop our crafts.

I track our progress my putting small tasks in our planner to reach the bigger goal

When I am on a roll, no one or nothing can get in my way. I lay the groundwork for achieving my goals.

I clearly focus on how and when I want to achieve my goals.

I am using my disability to drive me onto fantastic things.

Questioner

I have faced questions from others through my life

I don’t think I will stop facing questions in life

It is part of life.

I find answers to my questioner questions which have made me a stronger person.

I prove you're all wrong as for so long you were putting me down.

Mindset

I rest my mind set thinking to think more positively on life

I was stuck in a rut and my foot felt like it was stuck in cement.

I saw inspiring disabled people do amazing things,

Then I said to myself one day I can do anything if I just put my mind to it.

I pursue achievements for myself.

Intend to rise up early every morning we perfect hidden talents

Stay strong for my fellow people with disabilities

And we can stand together and fight for change

Black threatening clouds hangover us,

making it Important to show our creative abilities.

Let’s remove names and terms that are used,

by the ignorant, for people with disabilities,

to develop strength and confidence in us.

Yes, if we work together we can bring change.

Enriched the tender flower feed and daily watering.

Relaxing and while admiring how beautiful you look, my flower.

A poem called running at pace

A race is about going at pace.

As we strap our running boots

Then I hear the starting gun

I run fast, as my legs could take me.

I was the first person to cross the finish line

As the warm sunshine shone on my face

As the clouds were full of snowflakes

It looked beautiful and picturesque and tranquil with children sweet faces as they Sledding down the snow covered street.

The poem called Winter chill in the air

There is a bitter cold feeling in the air,

As there is a wintery scene outside as snow falls.

Has caused much distribution and devastation to many homes and phones.

It is beautiful to look at wintery scenes through your window.

We are told not to go outside unless we have to

We brew a nice cup of tea to keep ourselves warm,

We put our heating on as there is a chill in the air.

As there are some children with gleeful smiles on their little sweet faces,

As they dust their sledges off and go sliding in the snow.

And eyes lit up with excitement and laughter could be seen on many of the Children's faces.

As they are wearing their winter coats, hats, gloves and scarves to keep Warm from the cutting wind that is blowing.

The skies overhead were looking threatening and full of further snow to fall.

This puts some people at risk of slipping on the snow as they walk on the Footpaths that have not been treated with salt.

Acrostic poem about kindness

Kindness does not cost anything.

Indeed we can help anyone.

Never feel small favours cannot help someone.

Striding to always be willing to help others.

Poem called hope and trust in our passion

As I spend many hours refining my poetry writing.

Along the way, warm many hearts through my poetry writing

My poems give empowering messages of positivity and hope and joy to all

Phrase speech when falling in pursuit

I am getting messages heard through my poetry writing

I dust myself down and go again till I am able to send

My message out there for people to hear

As learning experiences and I do not let myself get down.

I turned my life around through poetry writing.

My confidence has grown to unknown levels and tripled.

Every day we work to perfect our crafts and use time wisely

to perfect our creative abilities.

Poem called Regret

Tears run down everything we remember that time.

Poem called sharing positively

Very important we stay positive while we learn our craft

Especially we face difficulties on our journey

Poem magic in the feet

Children are seen playing football in the park.

As sparkles fantastic confidence in their ability.

Their skilful feet have their parents off their seat

As they beat the opposition defenders

And sit the goalkeeper down and roll the ball into an empty net.

As some children have fantastic control of their feet.

As some children grow up playing football on the street with friends

As they spend hours perfecting their craft.

They hope to see themselves playing on bigger football grounds on the day

I hope to hear the fans cheering their names;

It is important they get their fame, but don't let go to their heads.

A poem called to rise again

Time is a great healer

As my difficulties seem to have lifted;

It felt like grey dark clouds hung over me

Once I found answers to problems the grey clouds seem to dissipate

The skies up above were a clear blue colour,

I am up on the rise again

And them ten again

Remembrance Sunday tribute poem

Remember our fallen servicemen and women.

Expressing our gratitude for what our servicemen and women have done for us

Marking this time by giving a gun salute.

Eager that guns have fallen silent around the world for good.

Medals are given to our war heroes.

Bring the nation to silence

Wreaths are laid at our war memories around the UK.

Appreciating that our serviceman and woman had laid down their lives for us;

Now we are grateful to be able to lead normal lives;

Cost of many lives lost.

Expressing pain for family members of lost services man or woman.

Sparing moment to reflect and collect our thoughts.

Understanding how different our lives would have been.

Now bugles are played at our remembrance services;

Days go by for some families, war heroes shed a tear that

family members are no longer with them.

Always going to a special place in our hearts.

Years and years go by but it becomes easy for

family members of war heroes to be left behind.

Poem called flying kites

The sun was shining brightly in the clear blue sky,

As children were flying kites in the park.

A beautiful sight as kites blow in the gentle winds;

The kites are colourful, light and bright

The children’s kite competitions

And the children are heard, having fantastic fun.

A poem called our brain our powerful tool

Our brains are a powerful tool;

We need to keep our brains fuelled with food and water,

Before our bodies get hotter

As our brains seem to go at a hundred miles an hour.

As we power through our tasks for the day.

As we can do this

As I watch, the hand's Swiss watch turn

As we learn not ourselves out by doing too much in one go.

A poem called the season of Autumn

Autumn is upon us again,
And our farmers harvest their crops to our shops,
As our children celebrate Harvest festival at school
As we watch our beautiful trees and plants shed their leaves
They turn a yellow colour as they fall to the ground around our parks as they prepare for winter.
Our migratory birdsdepart, which leaves a kind of sadness in the air.
Which sparks the crunching sound of the leaves as cyclists wheels go over them.
As we watch our dormice, hedgehogs and bats go into hibernation.
The daylight starts growing shorter as the season Autumn arrives
As the temperature grows colder and we dig our woolly clothing from our wardrobes.
As we sit in front of our log fires to keep us warm.
We draw curtains early in the evenings;
As the daylight seems to go early and our streets are kept bright and night by our streetlights.
There is for some elderly people great sadness that we are stuck in houses again and they change in temperature with weather getting cooler;
It has not deterred us from getting our last jobs done in our gardens
As our garden harden with season Autumn beginning
These misty mornings and cold wind in the air.
As hair tears past me on my morning walker who say hello
As a young fellow called Joe who went brisk walk during month of Autumn
As he heard a crow squawking, their way of talking to the other crows.
Vegetables like Rockets, Radishes and Spinach grow as well as other vegetables.
As people grow their own vegetables in their own greenhouses;
As they share their own grown vegetables with their family and friends who were also green-fingered
Autumn is the best month for making delicious desserts;
Which spurs them to grow some more.
This draws many people to their allotments.
The allotment owners were given a sense of purpose.
Autumn is my favourite season because I like seeing leaves on trees change colour
Animals like deer, red squirrels and other animals can be seen in the months of Autumn.
Autumn is an awesome month to see change happening.
European robins tweet melodiously as they appear on our shores as they tours around the UK.
Animals like the Hedgehog and Barn owls are born in the months of Autumn;
Flowers like Rudbeckia are beautiful looking because yellow and red colours turn tones;
Glorious looking linger around gardens up and down the country,
As we sit, a warm cup of tea gives us some warmth in our bodies.
As we begin to spend more time inside our homes and on our phones.
As people look gorgeous with different flowers for their window boxes.
As we see some Foxes.
Autumn is a pleasant time for gorgeous things.

Jay's poem about missed by lockdown

Whilst struggling to play his video games and never claimed to be the best video gamer, he has missed not volunteering, not seeing his family and friends.

As he is spending time helping people in an online scope community who need help.

Jay felt a sense of happiness by helping others.

He smothers self-doubt, that sometimes rears its ugly head as he lay in bed.

Jay listened to his music which kept him calm.

As he got sweaty palms whenever he was nervous about going outside to meet people once again.

I really missed not seeing the Stoke Park writing group.

As I scoop my confidence, enter my poetry writing into different opportunities through the Scope online community.
