Mugger

 

Up on Brandon Hill

the lazy streetwise squirrels

mug folk for vittels.

Frost

 

Jack came calling last

night; sugar-crystal blanket

transforms the garden.

Think about it

 

Live each moment as

if it were your last is not

very good advice.

Witness

 

A bang and a yowl;

my heart in my mouth. The black

shadow scuttles off.

Three squirrels

 

One by one by one

they ripple up and down trees

foraging for food.

Winter warmer

 

Bright flames dance and coal

crackles; creature comforts of

a warm Winter fire.

Big dog, little dog

 

All togged up for a

cheesy picture; step aside

for the underdog.

Happy

 

Joyful crisp morning

walking my daughter to school

chatting and laughing.

  • You see, it’s not all bad out there.

Meld

 

Fantastical dream

where worlds collide to create

new and wild stories.

Invisible

 

Passers by avert

their gaze; it is rude after

all to stop and stare.
