Bedtime haiku

When the day is done

the clamour and noise depart

then the dreams begin

False hopes

Newly cut diamonds

fall from a chaotic sky

then dreams melt away

False start

Overwintering

butterflies emerge from sheds

wishing they had not

Northerly

From the north she blows

chilly Arctic air marches

winter hangover

Magnolia

All winter I wait

these magnificent moments

remind me to live

Lady S

Val, my godmother

thank you for the love you gave

may you rest in peace

Clear the decks

Friends are coming round

drinks and snacks in the garden

apart, new normal

To do list

Holiday weekend

begins with a to do list

frying pan to fire

Easing

.

Caution abandoned

outdoor gatherings scale up

enjoying freedom

.

is there a sting in the tail

a nasty surprise in store?
