The trees neatly trimmed

to the height of a pony

the grass closely cropped.

Blind frenzy

 

Kamikaze gulls

oblivious of traffic

grab food from the road.

 

One tumbles under a car;

fortune favours the stupid.

K is for Kat

 

Across the great sea

the miles are no barrier

to a fine friendship

Pride

 

Sounds of Bristol Pride

cascade across Redland Green;

dogs play joyfully.

Delivery

 

Child-like excitement

a parcel addressed to me

full of spray paint cans.

Think big, start small

 

Representative

of a changing food landscape;

nature meeting snack

Dew fall

.

Pin-prick droplets touch

gently from dark starry skies;

dew in the morning.

Lose – lose

 

Snape and Voldemort

battle it out in hustings

I think we’re all doomed.

Hear see

 

In the foxglove tree

high up a hollow tap tap;

spotted woodpecker.
