My Musing and Writing

By Leone Allender

This book is a collection of my thoughts, feelings and innermost imaginations. I find writing is a very cathartic experience, a release of emotion, of healing. I have been writing from thoughts that pop into my head and imagination. My writing is a form of therapy for my aching heart, a flood of emotions that I want to impart, but most of all it is an enjoyment that I seek only a daily basis for the gift of life and love.

20th Century

The 20th century

Was a century of change

It was a time of technological advances

A century of women’s rights

Of woman equality

The right to vote

No longer an object for possession

Independence

A century of scientific exploration

Medical advance

Advance in education

Space exploration, world travel

Making the world closer to get to

Connected because of this

Slaughter, war

Death of millions

Ravaging the worlds resources

Greed of a technological age

A society based on having

Attempts at racial annihilation

Genocide at the hands of mass murders

Famine while the world watched

What have we learnt?

In modern day

How to slaughter more

Rape the world of its resources

Change the world through

Global Warming

We are a society

That takes and takes

We don’t put back

We don’t stop and listen to the world crying

We a self-involved

We think it’s our given right

To take what we want’

Without consequences

While the world cries

We do not think of the generation that follows

What legacy do we leave?

Do we even consider what the future holds?

In a world without resources

Of religious differences

Global terrorism in the name of religion

Why do people not understand?

That other people are allowed to have different beliefs

Is being different being a target

Why can’t people

Let people be what they want

Instead do we Have to conform to other’s beliefs

We still would not get along

There would be something else

That would separate us from each other

Why do we waste in massive proportions?

Excessive nature of humans

Want, want, want

We should instead

Give, give, give

Not expect everything

What has happened to love thy neighbour

Do not judge others

Be open to all races and religions, after all

who said what’s right or wrong in people’s beliefs?

After all are, we not all the same,

Do we not eat, breath, worry, laugh, cry, suffer,

bleed, dream, fear and hate?

We are no different from one another

Does colour, creed, religion, race

Make a difference

NO!

A Child

When a little child is born,

It is a blessing from above,

A gift for all to treasure,

And surround with your love,

For a surely as a brand-new child

Has come into your life,

You know that you will protect this child,

For the rest of your life,

It’s a wonderous thing to hold

A new baby when it is born,

To watch on as this

Little life takes form,

So, nurture this baby,

With all the love you have to give,

For this love will surely be returned,

With the simple touch of

The child’s hand,

So precious a gift,

That you can give

Is your love and protection,

Many an hour you will spend,

Looking on in awe,

As the child slowly grows,

Into its adult form,

And over the years

That will pass,

You will find love renewed,

For at each interval of age,

The child will give its love to you,

They give this love freely,

It comes straight from the heart,

A repayment for all the affection,

That you alone did impart,

It’s your gift to give this child

For the rest of your life,

So, make this simple journey,

One that is filled with much delight.

A Little Girls Innocence

There is this little girl,

She lives inside of me,

She’s always right there inside,

Just there, but no one can see.

A very frightened little girl,

Whose innocence was stripped away,

From her before she knew,

When she should have been outside at play.

She’s lived inside of me now

For a very long time,

Of a time,

That’s not well remembered,

Because she’s afraid

Of what her memories might find.

Of feeling that she had,

And thoughts outside her age,

Of the innocence lost,

Never to regain.

Of dark and lonely places,

And memories pushed away,

Not wanting to resurface,

Cannot deal with the pain.

So,
