Top of the bay

Sitting at the top of the bay
Wasting time yes wasting time
Waiting for the end of the day
I've been enjoying God's rest: prime!
Now the sun is slowly slipping away
I am watching it sink below the line
That horizon: the edge of our day
It's like a curtain to the other side
What lies beyond: goes before us?
Creeping faster than the human eye
Darkness sinks gratefully down
All around us peace returns: another night
Abounds in restfullness and silence
We are ready: to face whatever comes anew
For that is all we are expected to do!

Tour de couch

Evaleah is a crawler
In the Tour de Couch
She crawls everywhere
All around that house
She's getting ever faster
Every single round
While Zac is climbing over
Evaleah is moving fast
The race is on each day
Who wins we will see
It's just a formality!

Pie floaters

He took me to the train station
It was so very late at night
We'd had our fun around the town
Now it was his turn for a tasty bite
Said he always had a "pie floater"
Yes almost every Saturday night
So there we were outside the railway station
Along with many, many more enthusiasts
I watched amazed as he polished it off
Tomato sauce and all: I couldn't stomach it
Just watched as everybody ate
Their pie floaters: late that Saturday night!

At the look out

Two teenagers trying to find true love
Decided to check it out: thought to meet
To maybe take a chance: yes a chance
To see if love could blossom: romance?
I was embarrassed just a little bit you see
I used to have a crush on him: long before
So we were parked beside the mighty river
Up at the bridge lookout: in the dark
Looking to see if maybe there was a spark
I saw a beautiful shooting star passing by
Called out "did you see that shooting star?"
He must have thought I was fishing
Maybe even thought that I was wishing
For him to lean across: to begin kissing
He took the hint: so he was thinking too
But suddenly for me it was wrong and
Embarrassed I pulled away: tried to explain
I really did see a shooting star: it's true
That sparkle just wasn't there for me or you

Motor cycle ride with my crush

Riding on the motor bike with you
Seemed like the greatest thing to do
You probably won't even remember
But I most certainly remember you
You see I was just a love-sick teen
I really had an amazing crush on you
Just being able to hold you close
Yes: just being able to feel your flesh
The warmth of our necessary embrace
Might have left me blushing: red faced
Though to you I was probably a pain
To me that bike ride was a dream come true
The tangles in my hair were as nothing
For: just a few minutes: I got to hold you!

Home

They say "home is where the heart is"

And in coming home the best part is

Arriving home...feeling that joy there

That wonderful feeling of relief

Yes it truly is such a blessing: to share

That amazing feeling: that belief

Welcoming in so many different ways 

The smiles upon their faces: that joy

Seen within those happy places

My darling little girl and precious boys

My beautiful daughter: happy to know

That indeed this is now my home! 

Fresh Oranges

Today I picked an orange
Fresh from the orange tree
It's been such a long time 
Since I've done this you see
Dad's brain aneurism occurred
Way back in 1993 at Kingston-on-Murray
The fruit block was sold off
That was back in 1994: at a loss
Dad was in no condition: obviously
To do any of the work: no siree
It took a very long time
For him to recover: still can't see properly
The pressure on his optic nerve
Did damage: left a massive black hole
We are all just so thankful
That he is with us still!

Berri Hotel on the River Murray

In childhood days we would travel to Berri

Nestled along the banks of the River Murray

There were gardens beside the river

Beautiful scenery: magical to me!

The pretty flowers and lovely climbing vines

Purple flowers still linger in my mind

We took many precious photographs

Of our little family and of our friends

I recall posing there with Gyongyi (Gina) 

And Gyuszika (George) Koroshazi

We were just little kids: Alec and George of an age

Me and Gina too: the same!

Our precious parents all dressed up

It was to create some treasured memories

For they were to leave for the USA

No incentive to stay here in Oz

No government assistance here at all

To begin their factory: so off they went

Leaving a great big hole in our lives!

Missing you guys still!

Wine Barrel Restaurant

I remember going along 
To the Wine Barrel restaurant
So many long, long years ago
With my whole family: upstairs
When I was just a kid I suppose
My Uncle knew the owners
Brought us along to meet the host
Can't remember much else
It's like a pale, filmy ghost
A memory: still it's there for me

Years later they turned it into a Disco
We went there: mu friends and I
There wasn't much choice back then
Maybe one in each Riverland town
We'd arrange to meet and have some fun
In the summer time: after work was done!

Rat race

We are all living in the rat race
Everyone has their own chase
We are racing time to get all done
Never finding time for any fun
No matter who gets ahead
No matter how fast we run
The conclusion: to me: brought undone!
Is that we are all just rats: every one!

Sniff and pee

Amy drove up to Berri with me
Handled the car trip beautifully
She must have thought it weird
To check out her old home: tranquilly
It's been almost four months since then
She's become a city dog you see
Getting used to staying in the back yard

Waiting around all day long for me
She's made a new friend in Chilla
Had to spend a few days with Violeta
Wondering if I'd ever come back
She's a timid little thing and I admit
There are times when she is taken aback
I suppose she gets sad and lonely too
Wondering what the heck is happening? 
Wouldn't you? As she is taken from here to there
Then back again: poor little thing!
But one thing I have seen: the "sniff and pee"
The usual little doggy trick she uses too
Checks out the yard: every inch of it!
Sniffing the grass to check every little bit
Has there been any other dog or cat on it?
Then once she's checked the whole yard
She adds her little bit to it: scents abound
Any where my little dog gets around!

Is that all there is?

Sometimes I wonder about this life we live
So many people taking: not many ready to give!
I been watching my parents: all week long
It's not a pretty sight: how some just can't get along
The grumpy attitudes: the nasty tone of voice
I know life is tough but we each have a choice
Stress is a killer: loss of health and hope is too
So What are we all supposed to do?
I know it is difficult as you get older
Many more responsibilities to shoulder
It's time to take stock and look around you
Doesn't what you've been through?
Help to keep the focus on your love
What does getting angry at each other prove?
The boring state of daily life gets you down
Seems they're hardly ever smiling: frown!
Is there nothing more to look forward to?
Is this all there really is: in this life for you?
God help them to love each other: not argue!
God help us all to be understanding: so true!
Look above for your salvation: Jesus comes
Just a little longer: be aware in your homes
Be ready for the loud cry: yes I'm talking to you
Make ready for the judgement day: it comes all too soon!

A soft caress

I touched your precious head
With the softest caress
Felt that cavernous rift
Where your skull bone no longer is
It's been over 20 years
Since that awful time
I feel so blessed I've still got you
I thank God for our extra time
Knowing you are with me still
Is such a precious blessing
Every day I thank The Lord
For keeping my family within His loving arms
Now I pray dear Lord to help me cope
As I watch my mum doing battle
Praying for another miracle of time
So I can keep her beside me too
Just like all those years ago with you!

Reminiscing

Sitting here with my family
Around the dining table
Flipping through the photographs
Of times so long ago
These memories do linger
Bringing me near to tears
Looking back and reminiscing
Oh how wonderful those memories
Of childhood passed so long ago
The years just disappear
I've gone back over 50 years
Those that I can remember anyway
We talked of times before my birth
When dad was just a child
Taking me back to Hungary
To that distant past before mine
The escape across the border into Austria
Their journey across the seas
Landing here in Australia on the Aurelia
The jobs he took labouring in NSW
And also in Victoria near Mildura
We haven't talked like this ever I guess
Sometimes it takes a while to surrender
To the past: recall it all: stressful
As it must have been to them all
It made me think of this:
How many times can we actually relate?
How times do we really sit and talk
About those times that have gone?
Really listening: reminiscing!

Give and take

I'm a giver not a taker
A mover not a shaker
Try to live like a Quaker?
Yes I really love my maker
Try to do the best I can
Love my fellow man
Please do it if you can
Just follow God's plan
It's not as easy as it seems
Even in your wildest dreams
Times when the rain teems
Splitting everything at the seams
You know actions speak louder
Than your words: maybe they're clouded
Learn to deal with the gun powder
Close your mouth and think: yes ponder
Think before you speak
Don't let that drivel seep
Learn to turn the other cheek
Take it on the chin: be meek
If we all lived like Jesus Christ
He's the One: paid our price
Wouldn't that be really nice?
Living out our last days in paradise!

Wax Dummy

Flat and lifeless like a doll

That's the feeling of being

Out of control: destitute: dull

Like everything just passes you by

I was feeling helpless: lost

Can you be "off" a roll?

Looking in the mirror I felt so...

Waxen, lifeless, sullen, incomplete

Yes I was lost without your presence

Like an empty shell: an empty husk

But now I feel alive again: at last!

Like I was someone else you ken?

The power of the universe surges

It pulls and tugs: relieves that drudge

That life had become: no taste sensation

No exuberance for anything

Just hanging on by my fingernails 

Barely making ends meet

I felt a little like Tim looked at the viewing

Pale and insignificant: grey and waxen

Lifeless, humourless, changed by grief

Yes like someone had taken it all

No matter how brief the time lost

Still I am suffering that cost

I need to work at being happy

Need to let my troubles go

For tomorrow is coming and I cannot let it go!

Sunset

The beautiful sun is setting
Darkness comes to rule again
The world continues turning
Another day closes, a new begins
God made the days and nights
He made the earth and skies as well
It all continues round and round
Just as He has always planned
God designed it all for His glory
Every living thing He made too
He implores us to listen to his words
So that we may live long upon this earth
The fourth commandment is so important
He commands us to keep it in his name
That we might find peace and rest
Yes this is but another blessed test
For the way in which we honour Him
He looks down upon our childish heads
He awaits our loving prayers each day
He hears our voices rise in singing
it is easy to follow Him: very easy to do
We need no clocks to chime for us
We only need to watch and observe
Yes watch the sun as it descends each day
Follow Him as He guides our way
It is so easy to see that setting sun
It is His gift: present for everyone
Remember to keep the Sabbath day
To keep it holy in His name: amen!

Homemade Red Chile Mayonnaise

The Red Chile
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
3 garlic cloves, minced
2-3 tablespoons Chimayo red chili (finely ground)

Barely heat the vegetable oil.
Add the garlic cloves and saute gently 3-5 minutes
Add the chili powder, stir 2-3 minutes on low-medium heat
Gradually add the warm chicken stock, stirring constantly
Add cumin. Cook 10 minutes on low, stirring occasionally.
Let this cool.

The Mayonnaise
2 egg yolks

Smile with me

I want you to smile with me

Laugh with me: laugh at me

I don't care if you do; you see

I feel so blessedly happy

The dark days have passed: I say

A new day has arrived: brand new day

The joy of life abounds in me

I feel so close to my Lord; you see

I am invigorated: dedicated to Him

Yes this is my joy: I give to you

I share my joy with all who seek

The blessed ones who love: the meek

So come along and join with me

Let us rejoice and sing: happily

Jesus is coming so swiftly: yes He comes

He comes to take us all home with Him

No more dreary days: all is bright

Jesus shines; He lives: right here

Yes right here; within this heart!

Waking up happy

Today for the first time in months
I woke up happy: yes actually happy!
With a smile upon my face! 
With a spring in my step! 
At last I can move forward
I am actually able to see some light
At the end of this tunnel I've been in
What has changed: you may well ask?
Lately I've been led to find information
A book about re-incarnation: other lives!
Stories printed in magazines about children
Little children remembering where they were
Just a few short years ago: their families
Their former children: their former wives
Oh dear Lord you see into my very heart
You know my questions forming there
You send me answers: you send me joy
I found "The eagle and the Rose" 
By Rosemary Altea at the op-shop
I had a brief glance and found the chapter
All about suicide: yes that awful way to die
I've been feeling miserable not knowing
What actually happens when we pass on: die?
There is more to life and death than we know
Only God in heaven can answer that you know!

Ode to Dolly Parton

Strolling through Allen’s Music store with you (Tim)

Listening to the music being piped through

Heard a song that reverberated: through my soul

It was “Jolene” by Dolly Parton: what an amazing tune!

I heard you singing dear Dolly: you touched my heart

Knew we’d be hearing much more of you

Through and through: it hit me: what a beautiful voice!

Now as I look back upon my life I know

Right back then I realised: knew it would be true

Your voice would be a hit: I just knew it was due!

Watched The Voice last year in 2013

Celia Pavey sang that same song: beautifully!

Brought back memories of that day way back in 1976

Mirror image

What a mess we make when we think upon our lives

Trying to turn another into our image: our children, our wives

But you know how that saying goes: individuals we all are

We cannot be made: we need to be accepted just as we are

We each have our own beginnings: we each need to grow

That's the way God intended it to be: don't you know?

So just learn to accept it: give up that silly pride

Let us all grow up as intended: let us individually show

You cannot change a leopard's spots: impossible to even try

For all will be as God intended: that’s the truth: do or die!

The beginning of love

Is to let those we love

Be perfectly them selves

And not to twist them

To fit our own image

Otherwise we love only

The reflection of ourselves

We find in them

Thomas Merton

Storm bringer

We are all so different

Though we are similar too

Some I simply do not

Understand: no not at all!

Why some love to cause problems?

Some love to make trouble everywhere!

Don’t want to burst your bubble but

Some people just totally lose the plot!

Unless they’re stirring that cauldron

Full of strife in everyone’s lives

Some just cannot resist plunging that knife

Straight into another’s back: so to speak!

Then they just love to give it a tweak!

Some love preying upon the weak!

What is it that these people lack?

Love, compassion, understanding?

Why do they gain such joy?

In being such a nasty piece of work!

Why can’t they be happy for another’s life?

Why can’t they just get on with their own life?

I don’t like these storm bringers!

I don’t like the way they act!

I would rather meet joy bringers!

Yes I’d much rather: to these people speak!

The Bush Ranger's Christmas Eve

I remember taking part in a play

When I was in primary school in the 1960’s

It was called “The Bushranger’s Christmas Eve”

I vaguely recall “spraining” my ankle for my part and

Having to have one of the boys bathe it for me

But I was embarrassed for Andrew Pfeiffer to do it

So Debbie Swansbury had to bathe my foot instead

Ah the silly things we remember as we travel along

Life’s long highways: the magic of memories for us all!

Day of rest

The Sabbath day: a day of rest
Each Sabbath day is truly blessed
God's gift to us all: His children
He designed it for our guidance
That we would worship Him
That we would join in thanksgiving
Honouring Him and His ways
Granting us long life for all our days
Many blessings will come our way
Simply by honouring God on His blessed day!

The fish pond

I remember from my childhood
Visiting mum and dad's friends
They had no children of their own
So I was at a loose end there
Outside they had a massive fishpond
I loved to watch those colourful fish
They had hundreds and hundreds
Of huge shining goldfish: swimming
In that long shallow pool: just for their fish
I saw golden, white and pink patched fish
Swimming in the sun; dazzling my eyes
How I loved to watch them swim back and forth
Instead of getting bored: I made my own fun!

Kaiser and the postman

We lived in Jenkins Avenue in 1978
Kaiser was our precious loving pet
He was our darling boy: our best mate
He grew up in that back yard: ran wild
Beside the little swimming pool
He loved that green grass too
He loved us and we loved him: our first child!
One day we got a letter from the postie
He was very upset to say the least
Said he would no longer deliver our mail
If we could not contain our beast
Kaiser was so happy and never was bad
He was the best thing we ever had
Wouldn't hurt a fly: not our precious boy
But we weren't home that day
When he escaped the yard: scared that postie
Must have given that poor man
Such a terrible fright: out if sight!
Though to us he was loving and sweet
I guess we never saw him on his own
Never watched him wandering down the street
Or doing his job: keeping a look out!
Many years later Auntie Debbie got a fright
I'd left something in our car that night
She said she'd get it: Kaiser was a pet
Didn't think he'd growl at her: better yet
She thought to open up that car door
Grab my bag and return inside but
Kaiser was on guard duty: it was his pride
At stake: his duty to keep our car safe
No one would get into that car
Not on his watch! My sweet pet!
Another time I did get to watch him at play
We'd gone for a walk across the road
That was at Burton Road in Athelstone
There was a little creek we walked along
He loved those little adventures we took him on
Just as we were going back: a man came: walking
Down our very street: Kaiser went to meet him
Just walked up to him: ready to greet
I saw that poor guy hesitate: getting ready to flee
Kaiser went quickly up to that guy
As if he would grab him: saw his face
As he turned round: saw his cheeky grin
As if he was saying: " I got him mum!
Did you see what I did to him?"
That cheeky look upon his face
Was such a wonderful sight
Happiness in his eyes as he returned to me
Showing me his pleasure in his life
Oh dear Lord: how much I do miss him!

Kaiser and the chiropractor

Many years ago when Kaiser was getting on
He fell out of the car on the roundabout
Poor thing gave a yelp as the door opened
Tumbled out and hit the ground: rolling
We took him along to the animal chiropractor
Though at first he wasn't the least bit impressed
He did relax after a little bit: yes he did
Finally the chiropractor got him settled down
He had to wear a muzzle: he hated that
Never ever had to wear one before but
When all was said and done: he moved
Around much more easily: he was better!

Tour of Barmera

We took a tour of Barmera
Me and my beautiful girl
Showed her all the things I'd seen
When I was just a little girl
I drove down the Main Street
Barwell Avenue it is still called
I was happy to drive those streets
To show her all of my little world
Just as it was back then: so long ago
We took a tour of my past: my youth
Drove past the caravan park: real slow
Oh the times I had when I was young
Swimming at Lake Bonney was a joy
With all my childhood friends no less
I still remember my driving lessons: boy
I loved to drive around those streets: I guess
I always have, like right now: the netball courts
The footy oval where dad would play
With Martha's dad and uncle Tony: in shorts
The fun times we all had watching them: yay
Soccer was their relaxation and sport
We kids would run around and play!
Campbell's Bluebird Cafe was next then
The shacks further up where we'd meet
Our friends as we relaxed when
Work was done and we could retreat
The beer garden out back of the Barmera hotel
It's gone but not forgotten: those happy times
Still linger in my memories: the new motel
That covers the gardens where I used to climb
The fish pond where we took our photos
Is just a distant memory: brought back to life
Meals we ate there: all the Magyar families
Gathering together on those Saturday nights
The jetty in the lake that used to seem so huge
Now only a tiny part is left: most is gone
Damaged by the floods: after the deluge
Yes it was such a precious time we shared
My beautiful girl and I: what a blessing
To be able to drive around and reminisce
Over the past that we shared today!

Think

Saw this on Facebook the other night
I guess it just goes to show who's right
So many words spill out of our mouths
But do we ever really think about truths?
Does what we say make any sense?
Do we care about causing offense?
Are our words ready to inspire?
Or do we utter them without fire?
What about necessity: do we care?
About the often useless words we share?
How about kindness: is it a must?
Do we forget about keeping another's trust?
Remember that we each have the right
To feel safe and loved and held tight
So love your neighbour as yourself
And keep Jesus' teachings for your wealth!

T- Is it true?
H- Is it helpful?
I  - Is it inspiring?
N- Is it necessary?
K- Is it kind?

Do not ask me

I am upset: do not ask me
She is stubborn: will not change
Refuses to do anything I ask
No matter how much I beg
She is in control of her days
Doesn't care what anyone says
After all it is her life at stake
She it is who must take the pain
She it is who must suffer in vain
But I cannot push her I know
For she it is who must decide
No other can break that tide
She is the one who lives or dies
It is out of my hands: into God's
I can only pray for her: my mum
Thy will be done dear Lord
For all is as you decide! Amen

Big River blues

Sitting in my car waiting for you

My heart is broken: feeling blue

The mighty river flows on by

I am crying again: don't know why

I was here a year or two ago

Feeling sad at letting another go

Tonight I feel so down and lost

Remembering loved ones most

You know how hard it is right now

To pick up the pieces: get up and bow

I feel like I'm sinking down below

The river calls me as she flows

"Just like I run to meet the sea

Know that life goes on for you and me!"

Remember to keep your love alive

Fill up the broken hearts with love

Yes, just as I must chase the waves

So you must continue to grieve

Then one day as time goes on 

Your heart will heal, you will go on

Truth is the daughter of time 

Time heals all wounds: is sublime

Let love and laughter finally pool

For if you follow these golden rules

God heals the broken-hearted

Keeps love alive for the departed

God promises to never let us grieve 

Anymore than we can bear: believe 

In His promises with all your heart and soul 

For heaven awaits you 'ere you fall

3 months

It's been 3 months since you went away
We've been so sad I must say: today
Is the third month since that very day
The sadness has come, seems to stay
In between the rain clouds comes the sun
In between the sadness: a little fun
Some days are like thunderstorms
Some are like the gusty winds of war
I want to go on living but true to form
I think of you and am swallowed: as in tar
I feel so down and wonder why
Yes "Why?" Why did you have to die?
I am listless, unsmiling, depressed
Who ever would have guessed
Past regrets come tumbling down
Have me feeling sad: I frown!
But as I read more and more
I wonder what the lord has in store
For me, for my family: what next?
When will this sadness end: I am vexed
Is there life after death: will you return?
In my mind I want to know: questions burn!
I hear of people recalling their past lives
Remembering other families, wives
Is it true? What do I know? Not enough!
How do you call God's bluff?

 

Paper dolls

As a kid I didn't have much
A couple of dolls made of paper
How magical it was to have a few
Pretty dresses to change about
I still remember thinking of
The mess I made when her arm was torn
Trying to stick it back on again
It was never quite the same as before
But I just had to continue on
Using my amazing imagination!

Hold my hand

One thing I really miss
Along with the softest kiss
Is holding your hand
You used to hold my hand
Yes, as we walked along
Your grip felt so strong
But now it's gone and I do miss 
Hearing your voice, feeling your kiss
It's so sad you know my honey
That I have to go it all alone honey
Without you by my side
I would that we could glide
Yes I wish we could glide along
Maybe even sing a love song
To each other: like we used to do
Oh honey how I do miss you!

The other night I asked for you
To hold my hand for a minute or two
I felt like you were close to me
Wished I could maybe even see
Your smiling face again: but then 
As I recalled most painfully: when
I remembered that you were gone: really
Passed away: left me alone: ideally
I would still be able to have a chat
Know you were close by: imagine that!
Well I felt your grip upon my hand
Felt your loving touch: I understand
Knew you were close by
I don't really know why
But that is how it felt as I knelt to pray 
As I finally got my chance to say
I love you! I miss you! Wish I could
Hug you, hold you, and kiss you!
