Looking out of the Window

Looking out of the window,
she departs from the station, with some hestitaition
about the journey ahead, moving away from home and the childhood memories.

Looking out of the window,
she remembers how mum cried, dad hugged her but looked smug
about the university acceptance letter to study medicine,
but she is hesitant over the journey ahead from home and the childhood memories.

Looking out of the window,
she had agreed for Janet her younger sister to have her old bedroom, but feels feel gloom
over giving up her personal things from the past, but this was bypassed by Janet who was elated,
but now she feels hesitate over the journey from home and the childhood memories.

Looking out of the window,
is the future of new beginnings.
What lays ahead are new friends, studying, a degree, and her parents that will still visit her,
as the train moves very fast from her home, from the past to the new journey ahead.

Letters of the Past

The letters in his hand were crisp, clean, and pure white and had the age of youth while Sebastian's hands were wrinkled, old and worn out. He smelt the perfume of the letters which were like flowers in the room showing down onto him. He rocked slowly as he held them and whispered 'Lillian' while Beatrice didn't budge and had gone to sleep purring away in his lap.  As the light glistened in the fireplace the colours were reflecting onto the walls of the living room like colours of the rainbow as he thought of Lillian and the past. It was at university where he had met her first, he was himself lost in the corridors, with his shirt half tucked into his trousers, tie askew and hair rough and looking at the board trying to find his class. He heard her voice, 'excuse me' and turned towards her. It was her golden hair that struck him. It shone in the corridor like a gem and it was long. She looked as though she were a mermaid emerging from the sea. He could feel...

Christmas Wish

Frost was glistening like jewels shining as though it was worth a million pounds. The wind was whistling like a naughty child intermittently. Figures of people hustled around to gather Christmas presents last minute. Their faces were full joy like sunshine because of the air of Christmas was approaching. Kids unable to sleep, counting the hours and pacing within houses. Chestnuts were roasting on the open fires, turkeys defrosting and stockings being laid out in anticipation for Santa’s arrival.      Christina was inside near the warmth of the fire which glowed red and arose like a phoenix from the ashes as it burned warming her up. She was eagerly waiting for Peter’s call. The phone rang like the jingle of bells and her heart started to beat faster. “Hello I miss you” he expressed. “So do I. Been waiting for your call all day, are you going to come back for Christmas Day?” she asked. “I hope so... Works been crazy”. He soun...

You are so loved

https://www.creativewritingink.co.uk/resources/writing-prompts/ It came like a thief without warning, There were no signs. It stole my life away, parts of me gone: hair, nails and feeling fatigue. It came like a tornado out of the blue, There were no signs. It changed my life, job, career, money and friends were lost. The word was cancer, it spread fear, anxiety and depression. The paper was there, what could I write now? The expression You are so loved came like the light out of dark, The people who mattered stayed, my family, husband and some friends. It was my strength and hope for the future that You are so loved. I had come from out of the pain into new beginnings.
