Easy to forget

 

Exquisite beauty

I see it all around me;

a wonderful world.

Dog day

 

Let sleeping dogs lie

no cat nap for the canine;

totally crashed out.

School rules

 

Hands out of pockets

walk no more than two abreast;

it wouldn’t wash now.

Composed while walking to work on a very chilly morning and feeling uncomfortable putting my hands in my pockets, because of the school rules imposed/imprinted on me at a young age.

Spending pennies

.

Under clean blue skies

the puppy and I share time

scouting the garden.

Breakfast for one please

.

A delicious treat

time and space to contemplate;

a table for one.

Football fan

 

It’s the hope that kills

and so it is every match;

sheer purgatory.

Hunters

 

In the night

when all is pitch black

they will come

baring teeth

stealing the dreams from children

and wreaking havoc

File under WPB

 

Waste paper basket

in the corner of the room

keeper of secrets.

Pavement flowers

 

I didn’t know you

though I feel the pain of death;

murder on the streets.

2018

 

It is the first day

of a brand spanking new year;

make the most of it.

Happy New Year to you all.
