What am I?

What am I ?



You keep my teddies warm, you help me sleep and you also keep me warm.
You are quite big and snuggly you make me sleep for an extra 20 minutes.
You lie on my bed all day all night and you are made from cotton.
At night you lie on me for about twelve hours while I sleep.
What am I thinking about?

What am I?

The letters dance across the page,
The line of fire lights up the page,
A flick of a wrist and a story is born,
A storm full of words and a sea full of detail,
Flick, flack, squiggly and straight,
Read on and you might find your fate.

Terror by Oska

Terror

My brow weeps with sweat, my eyes twitch restlessly. I embrace my starved, bare body lying on the sub-zero ground frozen. I'm unable to move in my nightmare.

Frozen blood surrounds the wound where the syringe stabbed, and I cry for my family in my forlorn sleep. Then I awake and my soul fills with terror. 



Love Poem to My Toaster

Oh toaster I love you,
I can not imagine afternoon tea with out you,
I crave your golden toast.
Ever since the other one exploded,
I was in despair....
But then you came along with your bagel setting,
The other could not compare!

My True Love

Oh fridge, you held my chilled heart, it melted when you were away
It ached for your simple hum of electricity at night, 
You held my juice, my cheese and choc mousse. 
My love for you was everlasting... Until I met the freezer.





Kitchen Appliance Love Poem

Oh dishwasher,

How you keep my plates clean and tidy,
thick or thin, tall or tiny,
although you clean my plates at will,
you do make a big water bill.
