• Café Life is the Colony's main hangout, watering hole and meeting point.

    This is a place where you'll meet and make writing friends, and indulge in stratospherically-elevated wit or barometrically low humour.

    Some Colonists pop in religiously every day before or after work. Others we see here less regularly, but all are equally welcome. Two important grounds rules…

    • Don't give offence
    • Don't take offence

    We now allow political discussion, but strongly suggest it takes place in the Steam Room, which is a private sub-forum within Café Life. It’s only accessible to Full Members.

Poetry Give Yourself A Cuddle

The World Between the Words
Give Yourself A Cuddle


Give yourself a cuddle
Each and every day.
Be your own best friend,
You're better off that way.

Don't tell yourself off.
Others will do that for you.
Have lots of sunny thoughts,
There's no point in being blue.

You're better than you realize.
You're really lots of fun.
Give yourself a pat on the back
For being the clever one.

It's hard sometimes to be alone,
For life is such a muddle.
But you're sure to make it through,
So give yourself a cuddle.

You're better than you realize.

It's hard sometimes to be alone,
For life is such a muddle.
But you're sure to make it through,
So give yourself a cuddle.

This made me smile when I read it aloud! Lovely, Paul.
