September

 

Smell of apple drop

round cobbles in various

stages of decay.

Leigh Woods

 

Flashes of light brown

darting through the dense thickets;

Saturday dog walk.

Natural adventures

 

Love for Mother Earth;

was there any other way

for the nature boy?

Bass fishing in Lantic Bay

.

Standing sentry still

hook baited, rod presented;

hunter gatherer.

Wetting a line

Fishing the tide up

afternoon September sun

close to my perfect.

Beginning

 

Glorious morning

cold fresh air, endless blue skies

seasons marching on.

Butterflies

 

In a year of whites

a spot of late summer sun

brings out the colours.

On observing that it has been a terrible year for butterflies in the UK except for the white species which appear to have thrived in the dry conditions. This afternoon however I have spotted a couple of colourful butterflies, a speckled wood and one other.

Rock and a hard place

 

Say no and you’re strict

say yes, it’s spineless and weak;

some tough decisions.

Vulpes

.

Nonchalant creature

skulks slowly across the tracks;

feigned indifference.
