Old man shuffle

Irritating clack

slippers, a size too big, slap

an old man shuffle.

Perfect day for the cinema

 

Raining cats and dogs

such miserable weather;

family film time.

Project fear

 

Dispicable tag

used by bully Brexiteers

to stifle debate.

Exam results

 

The boy did OK

he could have done much better

I’m proud nonetheless.

The real work begins right now

hope he can apply himself.

Visual malfunction

 

Scotomas obscure,

words disappear before me;

retinal migraine.

An evening walk

with the dog I didn’t want;

got under my skin?

Home

 

I love holidays,

time away from it all, but

there’s no place like home.

Morning airport drive

 

Barcode staccato

road, sunlight cuts through the trees;

it’s home via Rome.

Insect bites

Beastly legacy

of an Italian trip

helps us remember.
