Scorched earth allotment
courgette plants and beans withered;
prolonged dry weather.

Blackberrying
Succulent berries
nature’s generous bounty;
purple stained fingers.

Ant day
A few days each year
queen ants emerge from their nests;
gull feeding frenzy.

Beautiful Demoiselle
Rising from the stream
graceful fluterer settles;
an angel in blue.

Blur
A miracle of
convergent evolution;
hummingbird hawk moth.

It’s coming home
Inconceivable
isn’t it that England might,
just might, bring it home?

Enemy time
Full of ideas
and great enthusiasm
all I need is time.

Hot tea
Is it only me
or does a nice cup of tea
in 30 degrees
bring on a perspiration
and instant restoration?

Strike one off the bucket list
With spraycan in hand
two hours of heavenly joy;
ah! the smell of paint.

- At last I got my hands dirty today, or at least I didn’t because I had to wear horrible rubber gloves. Ths is my very first time holding a spraycn after being given some basic instruction by the lovely Loch Ness. It did not turn out quite how I wanted, but it has left me with an unquenchable thirst for more. Finding the time, the wall and affording the paint are going to be my next challanges. I have lots of ideas in my head, and everyone says it is all about practice. A red letter day.
Back door
I can’t remember
a summer as good as this,
back door left open.
