Birthday April 2015 - 58th Birthday

Birthday April 2015 - 58th Birthday

A teapot may seem a little strange
but it's a symbol that represents change.
Those times when thing are quiet,
when you are relaxing on your own.
Not worrying about such and such diet
or some bandit on the end of the phone.
Dreams and thoughts, sprout out of the air
formulating your happiness, whatever your dare

40th Birthday

40th Birthday - For Ryan


As we get older, birthdays they merge.
Just like hotel guests, to a concierge.
Oh to have a button, a way to delay.
To spend more time, to plan a parade.
Or something even more remarkable,
imagine being captain of a large and buoyant carnival!
A celebration of not just age
but your life, loves and successes you've made!

Words: carnival, parade, concierge, captain

6 Year Anniversary

6 Year Anniversary

The taste of your lips,
is still so soft and sweet.
The fondest of memories,
when our lips, they meet.


The smell of your hair,
the scent hits my nose.
I think of it when you’re not there.
More subtle than a rose.


You make me high.
Just like from sugar.
My wife, my lover.
You are such a good looker.


And our time it is moving.
Like the tick of the clock.
And the constant, your beauty,
is soothing,
dazzling,
amazing,
gorgeous.
Like the feathers of a grand peacock.

++++

6th Anniversary Gift is Candy
Card had an artistic rose and peacock.

Work Mates - Retirements

Work Mates - Retirements

Keith

We will all miss the trivia.
Sport, movies, queens, the capital of Bolivia.
Your tilt at the seat, the most important chair.
Not the top job but with Eddie on Millionaire
It all leaves a big hunger, and let's up the ante.
Let's order a pizza, that would feed a small family.

Malcolm

The day it is coming, nearer and nearer
No more statistics and no more for JIRA
Fond are the memories, of all in the past.
Pleasant the feeling, close that last task.

Roger

Slam that door shut.
Make sure it's fully closed.
Driving off into the sunset.
Maximum rubber to the road.

Natalie

Breaking free!
I think you'll agree.
Is turning out well.
Escaping from 4GL hell.

Simon

Heaps more time for on-line gaming
Bandits at Barwon were only for training.
And whether on-line or travelling afar,
always make time for playing guitar.

Denise

The timing was awkward, or so it all seems.
But finally figured out, what it all means.
It's more time with family and trips overseas.
There's no more diistrations, no need to think twice.
Free, individual, a mother, grandmother and wife.
Enjoy your next adventure, your next stage of life.

Dehlia

Just think about all the spare time,
crafting and honing the perfect rhyme,
Accompanied by music, a beautiful country song.
Straight from the heart, where it should come from.

Valentines Day - February 2013

Valentines Day - February 2013

So many have tried, searched far and wide.
They gaze into the stars, others deep into their hearts.
The need to explain, just why it matters.
Their efforts are left, mostly in tatters.

It's the love of your wife.
It's the love of your live.
A certain mystery replete.
Which leaves you fulfilled and complete.

Birthday February 2013 - 36th Birthday

Birthday February 2013 - 36th Birthday

Frolicking around the garden, like a lady bird.
A little whisper, it may have been heard.
Freshly cut flowers, some fruit in the mix.
Our favourite garden fairy, turning thirty six.

Like the most beautiful tree in the garden.
Our eyes they adore, stare, please beg our pardon.
A birthday, a stepping stone to the next stage,
of growth and of life, turn the next page.

Birthday February 2013 - Matthew

Birthday February 2013 - Matthew

40 years is a long time in the shred scene.
Only a single bloke still playing so clean.
It's not Satriani or his good mate Steve Vai.
Although it's true, they do like to try.

Cannot imagine that a day has passed by.
Without a musical appendage sitting nearby.
Have a great day, an always upbeat mood.
Shredding so cleanly and shredding in tune.
