Set out with purpose

found what I was looking for

and much more besides.

Wrote a nice haiku

in my head this morning but…

not even a single word

this tanka will have to do.

Teenage girls laughing

at my Spotify playlist;

mostly musicals.

I’m facing backwards

watching the world pass me by

metaphor for life.

There’s much to be said

for rising with the new day

and not fighting it.

UK not OK

 

These uncertain times

create chaos and despair

divided nation.

False dawn

 

It’ll end in tears

nature waking up early

just you mark my words.

Warm

Omega Gulf Stream

drawing warm air from the south

record breaking day.

Redundant

 

Sledges languishing

in front gardens and back yards

left ‘on ice’ in hope.
