Inclement weather

 

Raining in Bemmie

and the crowds may diminish

but not the spirit.

Upfest 2017

 

Street artists converge

on Bristol for a few days,

painting the town red.

Nepali life

 

In the cool thin air

apple moons laid out to dry;

Autumn provisions

Bin day blues

 

Rotting food street smells

my walk to work polluted;

reality check.

Bridge

 

Crossing the divide

where glacial meltwater

cuts ever seawards.

Good reputation

 

Difficult to build,

to maintain requires effort,

so easy to lose.

Blue

 

Still for a moment,

frenetic journey frozen;

an angel in blue.

Once loved

 

Through the mist of time

thoughts of you evaporate

into the ether.

Examination

 

Need to book eye test;

wish they’d call it a check up

I don’t like failing.

Still raging

 

The angry young man

is healthy and vibrant in

this old man’s body.
