an unwelcome Winter guest

Looking quite dandy
in a ‘borrowed’ woolly cap;
their loss is your gain.

The 48 per cent
I’m sick of hearing
it’s the will of the people.
It is not my will.

- Every time I hear the Government trot out the words that the Brexit is the will of the British people, they are excluding the 48% who voted to remain. Are we not British people? This lot will never carry me with them as long as they use this bullying kind of coercive language.

Time for reflection
and private conversations
with the departed.

Leaving en famille
a lengthy operation
on our way at last.

Exquisite music
oozes from the car speakers

Evensong
Pink tinged wisps scattered
across a darkening sky
as blackbirds chatter.

Flowerpot showers,

Jack Sprat and his lovely wife
Though roles are reversed

His wife could eat no lean
And so between them both, you see,
They licked the platter clean.
