Tasty, toasty, Thai for tea.
Some for you, some for me..
Spicy, juicy, veg and meat,
Delicious meal, oh so neat.
Prawns and pork,
Pac choi too,
Rice and noodles,
Savour it, do.

White sails
White sail, sailing, over the water.
Barely a breath to help you move.
White canvas, taut and stiff
Or billowing softly in the breeze.
Hot sun and morning mist,
A twinkle of ripples follow your wake.
Sails, tall and fair.
Sails standing out across the lake,
Bright against the wooded hill.
Your beacon shines to me.
Trying to paint frost
Brick built through glass,
Blue, crisp, cold sky.
Observed through ice,
Layered, feathered,
Hard and delicate.
Like royal icing,
Infinitely spun in shards.
Spiders Web of facets.
Glinting and clinking in the sun.
Breath burns holes in it,
A cold palm melts into a print.
Frosted glass?
Frosting on a cake?
Feathered moonlight,
Frost…
Cold cat
Cold cat
Sits outside,
Won’t come it,
Wants to hide.
Cold cat
Likes to purr
But won’t come in
He won’t stir.
Cold cat,
Hides his face
Snuggles up
In a quiet place.
Cold cat
I hope I find
A new home
For your mind.
6am
Time for coffee
Quick and easy
Instant decaff
Made to
Warm me
In this
November
Chill..
Then
Back to
Slumber
In my
Bed…
Sleepy eyed
Tired
Armistice day
Poppies spreading from pole to pole,
Life and death must fight no more.
Let us give each other peace.
Think before we fight a foe.
Peace would be my lasting wish,
Giving back some bit of hope.
I know my wish can never be.
A world in peace I’ll never see.
But maybe once or twice the world
A life to spare, they can agree.
Orphaned lives must be saved,
Refugees must be delivered whole.
Shelter given, an end to fear,
No more war, a fairer share.
No more death of man or beast,
No more fighting,
Let’s have peace.
Unicorn
Unicorn,
Now you appear,
Suddenly visible.
Myth from camouflage.
Hidden revealed.
Equine beauty,
Immortal photons.
Light shines through you,
Pulses across the stars.
You may not be real,
But you are to me.
