It’s hard not to beat

yourself up after getting

mad with your children.

Garden seat

 

A wedding present

bathed in glorious sunshine

I sit with eyes closed.

Wisteria

 

Cascading florets

casting out subtle purples

and pinks. And the scent.

Mayflower

 

River of blossom

sweet-scented and soft to touch

let me bathe in you.

The oh sh*t! moment

Walked to work today

then remembered the car’s booked

for its MOT.

Spring rain

 

After heavy rain

the smell, that wonderful smell

rises from the earth.

Interview

 

Opportunity

to show them why I am the

right one for the job.

Waking up

 

Spring temperatures

soar, stirring dormant slow worms

from languid slumber.

Seed selection

 

Killing time, waiting

for the rain to stop, choosing

what seeds to plant next.

Football

 

The Bristol Rovers

roar carries on the light breeze

across the suburbs.
