I give up

 

Pain au chocolat

freshly baked, not enough to

get the children up.

In a flap

 

Disturbed from their ledge

pigeons scatter then settle;

a daily pattern.

Missed out

 

Did I miss something?

It doesn’t happen often,

once in a blue moon.

Good at something

 

Procrastination

king, doing tomorrow what

could be done today.

Magnolia

 

The fattening buds

filled with the promise of Spring;

not much longer now.

 

by Scooj

Me first

 

Forever mindful

I am in the here and now

it is good for me.

Urban sprawl

.

Monolithic crane

stoops over ant workers;

new development.

Sunday morning

 

I’m up with the larks

or should I say with the barks?

dog needs letting out.

Sorting

 

Four piles in the house

keep, sell, donate and dispose;

what weekends are for.

Saying

 

‘There’s enough blue sky

to make a pair of sailor’s

trousers’, gran would say.
