Wake up from work

 

Blue tits flit about

in branches before me, a

welcome distraction.

Winter’s tail

 

February days

fill body and mind with a

dark grey foreboding.

Explaining it to a child

.

We live in dark times

Where self-interest Trumps all

And hope is suppressed.

Refugees

Mannequins, refugees, haiku
Mannequins, refugees, haiku

Abused, abandoned,

unloved, forgotten, unseen;

inconvenient.

Horizon

 

Cranes and chimney stacks

jagged skyline silhouette

with Winter-thin trees.

Time to go home

 

As the lights go out

and colleagues head for their homes

I remain and write.

Junk mail

 

A letter addressed

with ‘to whom it may concern’

is wasted on me.

Sunday Sunday

Here we are again

Sunday routine of pancakes

then off to netball.

Nature boy

 

Forever outside

discovering worlds under

every upturned stone.

Trivial

 

Humpty Dumpty good

old egg, fell off the wall and

broke his leg…dear chap.
