F is for freedom
and much needed space,
when so long, is too long,
locked in the same place.
F is for fear,
of the unknown,
complacency the enemy,
no place safer than home.
F is for force,
that unstoppable surge,
when out of nowhere,
one gets an urge.
F is for feather,
worn in one’s cap,
when a successful venture,
sees one, back on the map.
F is for family,
spread out, far and wide,
though side by side,
in one’s head, they reside.
F is for Football,
the game we love true,
that got us through a pandemic,
when good times were few.
F is for fish,
always a winner,
served with chips and peas,
for our weekly dinner.
F is for future,
and ongoing schemes.
A life built on hope,
and fulfilling dreams.
F is for faithfulness,
one mighty ask,
when as fallible humans,
so hard, can be this task.
F is for falling,
with no safety net,
though the thrill of a zip wire,
one will never forget.
F is for forever,
to infinity and beyond.
A love built on trust,
no better solid bond.
F is for fantasia,
where the mind travels to,
when imagination runs riot,
to get one out of a stew.
F is for fanatical,
that robotic state,
when sense out of nonsense,
the mind can create.
F is for figures,
that just don’t add up,
when sometimes half empty,
is life’s giving cup.
F is for fearless,
and forging ahead,
after finally dismissing,
an unkind word, said.
F is for fortune,
the giver of hope,
that lifts the heart upwards,
when signs saying ‘nope’.
F is for friendship,
the worlds greatest gift,
and best solver of problems,
when minds go adrift.
F is for fountain,
that high rising splash,
making one want to strip off,
when out on the lash.
F is for fixing,
that unsolvable thing,
which, for so long,
much misery did bring.
F is for feeling,
unsure and alarmed,
until open arms, once more,
find hearts that are calmed.
F is for fabulous,
and frightfully grand,
outshone by amazing,
now taking command.
F is for f—,
that all purpose verb,
and outright winner, it seems,
of a word, one should curb.
