oozes from the car speakers
easing the journey.

Evensong
Pink tinged wisps scattered
across a darkening sky
as blackbirds chatter.

Valentine robins
Flowerpot showers,
frantic feather ruffling,
Spring is in the air.

Jack Sprat and his lovely wife
Though roles are reversed
the outcome is much the same;
be my valentine.

Blue tits flit about
in branches before me, a
welcome distraction.

fill body and mind with a

Where self-interest Trumps all
And hope is suppressed.

Abused, abandoned,

Horizon
Cranes and chimney stacks
jagged skyline silhouette
with Winter-thin trees.
