Kick-off

 

Another season

highs and lows, disappointment,

ecstasy; football

Storm worries

 

Quite un-August-like

high winds and heavy rainfall;

my daughter camping.

Ground rush II

.

Last minute packing

checking items off the lists

poor preparation.

No sooner is the boy back

than the girl departs for camp.

Regional accent

exemplified and typecast

Borough of Dudley.

Adulthood

 

Show me the boy…

a boy on a two week camp

a young man returns.

Lesson in life

,

Every little lie

spawns more lies to lie about

too much to contain

Porcelain crab

.

A lump of driftwood

stranded high on the tide line ;

crab hitches a ride

Rest

 

Glorious respite

travelling away from home

no housework to do.

Counterbalance

 

When all around falls

how utterly nice it is

to have the cricket.
