Trevor Nelson on BBC Radio 2 was asking listeners for their favourite Stevie Wonder Song which gave me an excuse for a quick Stevie Wonder Poem and a vote for "Yester-Me, Yester-You, Yesterday"

Anyone in the UK with young children knows what a double edged sword TV can be by encouraging learning and providing mental stimulation and of course fun but too much TV causes square eyes! This was written when my children were young.

Its Children in Need this Friday. For Non UK followers CIN is one of the biggest charity fundraisers in the year held over an entire evening on our biggest TV network - BBC One. Throughout the UK people like Sara Cox do amazing things to raise money for children related charities.

In the UK we have only just got over Halloween and along comes Bonfire Night when for US followers is when we celebrate, Guy Fawkes failed attempts in 1603 to blow up parliament, with bonfires and fireworks although we no longer burn an effigy of the Pope but of Guy Fawkes himself.

Halloween means a spooky mother and baby poem!

Appreciation of a painting is in the eye of the beholder especially if the artist is your child.

When I wrote this my children were quite young. 10 years later. I really appreciate the sentiments and yes they did stay as lovely as they were!

The long hot and wet summer is over and autumn seems to be here early so many parents will understand the story behind the poem called Long John Silver.

An old poem written by Les and myself years ago seemed suitable to celebrate National Teddy Bears Day.

I collaborated with the late Les Roberts on songs and musicals. Les wrote 'The Sea is Red' as his personal anthem to #autism and its lyrics remains one of my favourites.

Radio 2 in the Park is now a British musical institution and this year is at Chelmsford in Essex with some great music. What more do I need to pen a quick poem?
