Who only knows how to take.

Memories Are Funny Things
Memories Are Funny Things
Memories are funny things.
You hear your favourite singer sing
And all at once, that voice is stored,
Recognizable evermore.
You visit towns, you see the sights,
You feel the heat, you see the light
And that becomes a picture, saved;
A snapshot of a happy day.
And all you ever need to do
Is think about that perfect view
And all at once, you’re there once more
Seeing it as you previously saw.
A scent or sound can do the same.
A hint, and whoosh, you’re back again.
You’re in the room, you’re with the guy,
No matter how much time’s passed by.
And if you listen close enough
The voices of the ones you love
Will stay inside your clever mind
For you to recall, anytime!
So soak up life and all it brings
Cos memories are funny things.
They’re weaved from all you see or do.
Make them good. It’s up to you.
Memories are funny things is a short poem by English poet, Ms Moem.
Small Town
Small Town
I remember that summer
A lifetime ago.
You were a boy
I couldn’t wait to get to know.
I was but a girl.
We both were so young.
Mistakes yet to make…
A lifetime to come…
It feels like only yesterday that I last spoke to you…
Now you’re a small town rumour, but I’m sure it can’t be true…
You smiled when you saw me
And I smiled too.
Our last conversation;
If only I knew.
I might’ve used your nickname
Like I did years before
But I’m glad we said goodbye
Before you headed out the door.
It feels like only yesterday that I last spoke to you…
Now you’re a small town rumour, that I’m praying isn’t true.
The news spread like whispers
Around this small town.
So long, see you later.
Won’t see you around.
I never imagined
It would go this way.
Can’t quite believe it…
Don’t know what to say…
It feels like only yesterday that I last spoke to you…
Now you’re a small town rumour, and I’m so sad that it’s true.
Small Town is a short poem by Ms Moem.
Misplaced Composition | Poem
Misplaced Composition
You were the poem that got lost.
Lines crossed and meter not quite right.
You were a bright and bouncy piece
scribbled frantically, imperfectly,
impulsively.
Some lines were more memorable than others.
The opening verse rolled pleasingly
round the mouth.
Tentative dabbling with words formed
the ambling core. The closing
stanza was somehow sketchy.
Still, you never left me.
I couldn’t image trying to
re-write you. You didn’t need to be
finished or perfect, but you spilled
onto the paper,
begging to be read.

Comfort
I am every star and butterfly.
I’m rainbows painted in the sky.
I am every memory you recall.
I am comfort. That is all.
Comfort is a short poem by Ms Moem.
Dare To Self-Care | Poem
Dare To Self-Care
Speak kindly to your inner self,
Don’t take your demons’ view.
You are you, and no-one else
Will lead the life you do.
Kill your inner critic
And silence all his chatter.
Then write this truth inside your brain;
“I’m worth it & I matter.”
Dare To Self-Care is a short affirmative poem about confidence and self-care by English poet Ms Moem.

I Just Want To Say Hi
I Just Want To Say Hi
I just want to say hi…
To see how you are.
What does it feel like
To now be a star?
I just want to say hey…
Don’t you think I forgot
Just because I am here
And you’re sadly not.
I just want to say yo
Cos I know you would smile
And then I’d feel happier
Than I have for a while.
The days and months pass,
The years are flying by.
I still miss you so much.
I just want to say hi.
I Just Want To Say Hi is a short poem about missing someone, written by English poet Ms Moem.

Where I’ll Always Be – Wedding Poetry
Where I’ll Always Be
I could never hope to find
Someone who fits me better.
I swear I made a wish and it
Was answered to the letter.
I hope that you feel just the same.
I think I know you do.
I swear I had a dream one night
And now it’s coming true.
You’re all I ever wanted
And you’re all I ever will.
My love in its happy place
And growing greater still.
As every day I spend with you
I see more that I like.
You could make the greyest day
Feel sunny, warm and bright.
You’re such a special person
And you mean the world to me.
So any time or place you are,
That’s where I’ll always be.
Where I’ll Always Be is a short poem by Ms Moem.

Bedtime Wishes || A Rhyming Poem For Children
Bedtime Wishes
When I go to sleep at night
Bathed in stars and palest light
I know an angel guards my room;
You might know him as the moon.
Without fail, as sun does set
My dreams and I are gently met
To be looked over all the way
Until we meet each bright new day.
