We are connected,

you and I, through another’s

Bright

 

Blind from the sun’s kiss,

a sweet inconvenience

of Winter’s orbit.

Sweet ghost of Christmas past

 

Irresistable;

knock down advent calendar

with marzipan treats.

Mysterious soup

 

Mysterious soup

frothing for billenia,

thanks for making me.

The truth about child rearing

 

Making pancakes for

breakfast is ultimately

so unrewarding.

Painting (and not for pleasure)

 

Presumed holiday,

so I assumed I might rest;

d’oh! utterly wrong.

SS. Great Britain

 

Bristol’s Isembard

opened up the gateway to

trading with the world.

Confused

 

Still flowering, a

Serbian bellflower coats

the front garden wall.

Holiday tip trip (or more correctly, recycling centre)

 

Unloved posessions

and accumulated junk;

a Christmas chuck-out.
