Burst of colours, falling leaves and chestnuts
Bringing pensive mood and memories long forgotten
An old black and white photograph of an elderly lady
Holding an infant in her arms, the only memory of grandma
Seeing a chestnut brings this photograph to my mind
More memories come – running around and wildly
Kicking leaves into the air and looking for chestnuts
Gathering full bags of them to take home to play with
Later at home warmed by hot tea and enjoying sweets
Making a zoo full of chestnut animals – giraffe, lion, zebra…
On and on goes the list, even new species coming to life
Happily playing with them, creativity unleashed
Lost in the world childlike imagination where
Everything is possible even the most crazy dreams
 I know you won’t like what you’re about to hear
Since you think you know best – let’s face it
You just don’t, but you’ll find that out yourself
Or you can just trust me… up to you
First of all – have you ever thought about becoming
a teacher? Sounds stupid? Think about it.
When in love, you just don’t think, at all… REALLY!
So you might just get somebody you trust to tell you
Cold showers might help as well
The one you think is the right one is NOT, just saying
So that you aren’t surprised when you find out
And it might take longer than you imagine, or not
I know you’ve heard this yet doing just ONE thing well
Is better than ten things wrong, maybe you need to discover that yourself
You’ve got a great bunch of people around you
There’s no need to worry about them letting you down
Try to trust them more because they honestly love the way you are
Take it easy and poke some fun at yourself
Life is good and you’ve got a great future ahead of you
Dear Poets,
our topic for September is a Poetic Letter to anybody you wish to write to. It can be any kind of letter you want to write.
Enjoy writing and reading each other’s poetry.

Charming both clothed in mist and clouds
And naked in the direct sun
Revealing the greyish buildings,
All ancient monuments of national pride
Remembering Scottish heroes
Greyish city with islands of green parks
Tasting a wee bit of Highlands hiking Arthur’s Seat
Watching the sunset from Calton Hill
Taking in the city, never having enough
Wandering along Princess Street or the Royal Mile
Soaking in the artistic atmosphere
While visiting museums and galleries
Or all the unique cafés always sitting in
Discovering a different culture just to
Find out it’s not that different after all
Yet the best of all is meeting new friends
“Haste ye back!”, told me one of them
And haste back, aye, I will – See you soon!
I am passionate and friendly
I wonder about the simplexity of life
I hear the sound of heavens
I see new opportunities coming
I want to go deeper
I am passionate and friendly
I pretend all till I make it
I feel expectant about the future
I touch the untouchable
I worry about too many things
I cry for broken relationships
I am passionate and friendly
I understand nothing at all
I say God is good, all the time
I dream about transformation
I try to step outside my comfort zone
I hope to make my dent in the universe
I am passionate and friendly
Yearning to be significant
Yearning to make a difference
Yearning for love and belonging
Yearning for courage to sing the right song
Yearning to chart the unknown
Yearning for what can’t be seen
Yearning for the supernatural
Yearning for heaven on Earth
Yearning for eternity which we’re born for
Yearning which keeps me moving on
Until I finally arrive home
Adam
 Finally finishing a longish project
Sprinting marathon has come to an end
Feeling indescribably happy yet so empty
New project will come don’t worry
Enjoy a time of rest for once
Adam
Finally almost here, just can’t wait
The period of being free from tedious studying
Countless hours of working and sleepless nights
Finally flying away to get to know a new country
Ancient Scotland to discover, what a thrill
Maybe hiking in the Alps or navigating a river
Camping and watching the stars
Enjoying the time of rest when time slows down
Being with friends as much as possible
Even though it’s just for a short while, it’s so needed
– Adam
