7/30 Green

Mysterious bug

lurking on a bramble leaf

with regal splendour.

Eye to eye

A swan and angler

exchanging lazy gazes;

close but not too close.

Bristol garden walls

patchworked with purple carpets

3/30 Speckled Wood

On the face of it,

plain; but take a closer look…

beautiful patterns.

2/30 Damselfly

Momentary friend,

a wild beast in my kitchen

now released outside.

1/30 Water Lily

 

Living flotilla

not yet festooned with flowers,

I will return soon

I have signed up to the Wildlife Trusts’ 30 Days Wild campaign, which began on the 1 June, so I have a little catching up to do. The campaign (http://www.wildlifetrusts.org/30DaysWildInfo) encourages a deliberate contact with wildlife everyday for the month of June, and to share your experience with others. I will do mine here.

St Agnes

Gently subversive,

the coolest road signs are here;

surfing in Cornwall.

Lunch Break

 

At my weary desk

pork pie and sandwich for lunch

dreaming of Summer.

Haiku 12

 

Tender violet

drawing early Summer bees

with hands by your face.
