Snow

 

Table top

covered with new snow

and a leaf

since fallen

reminder of passing time

and lifetime consumed.

Ruben

 

Life’s about to change

so batton down the hatches;

puppy comes today.

Happy Christmas

.

A happy Christmas

to all who celebrate it

and to those who don’t.

A farewell

 

Thumping heart

be silent a while

let me breath

I must see

her countenance one last time

before all is lost

Antiperspirant

.

Unbelievable!

girl on the train applies mist

to her whole body

under and over her clothes;

the smell of it lingers on.

Critic

 

Unremarkable

devoid of any talent;

I’ll write about it.

New beginning

 

Feel the light

intensifying

from here on

for a while

revitalising my soul

and making my day.

Churchyard

 

Eighteen crows skulking

laboured hops on misty ground;

they’re up to no good.

Final push

 

One last shopping trip

to find that something special

for my special one.

Lifetime

 

As a boy

I went to Star Wars

number four.

Together

with my son, we are going

to see number eight.
