Red sky through the trees

Posted on February 10, 2023February 10, 2023 Posted in UncategorizedTagged Blue, Daylight, dry sunshine, Hue, Poem, Poetry, Rain, Red, Sky, Tree, WeatherLeave a comment

Red sky this morning

Weather warning?

But the sky turned blue

A lovely hue

The sun shone

No one cried

The wind just dried

The washing

No rain came

Which was the same

As yesterday

Except that was grey

So red sky

Was a weather lie!

Sequins

Sequins, shiny and bright

Sparkle and twinkle

In the light

Plastic circles

Dragon scales?

Are they magic

No, just pale

Imitations of fish skin

Gleaming and glittering in

The bright

Light

Tonight.

Latte

Posted on February 6, 2023February 7, 2023 Posted in UncategorizedTagged beverage, Coffee, Drink, Friendship, latte, lunchtime, Meeting, Poem, Poetry, RhymeLeave a comment

Milky latte

Soft coffee

Warm and creamy

A beverage, dreamy

Drink to warm

In cold weather

Makes a delicious

Thirst quencher.

Why write about it?

A conversation starter

Over coffee

Adds to frendship

When we meet.

Helps us greet.

Look out

Look out

See what’s about

Use your eyes

Don’t be surprised

Glasses are good

For seeing the mood

Of someone’s face

At more than a pace!

Sight is the winner

Lighter, and dimmer

Through fire and snow

You can see the glow

With my little eye

Just what do I spy?!

A very silly verse

Which could have been worse!

Abstract flower

Flowers made of light

Colours big and bright

Abstract patterns

Lines shape matters

A rose and stem?

Do you see them?

Pen and ink

That’s how I think!

Outlines and contours

Artistic encounters!

Dry eye

Posted on February 1, 2023 Posted in UncategorizedTagged dry, Dust, Emotion, Eye, eyelid, Fall, Memory, Poem, Poetry, Sadness, Silence, stillness, ThinkingLeave a comment

Dry as dust

No tears fall

The end of fuss

Cracked and dull

Sadness ends

Emotions pall

Memories shrink

Till nothing at all

Moistens my eyes

My eyelids won’t fall.

Lights

Fun with lamps.

Duplicated and turned

Hanging from the ceiling

Shining a light

On the crowded lounge

They move in the breeze

Floating in circles

Describing orbits

Random and round

Looking like a drum kit

Hanging up high.

Feathery frost

Feathers in frost,

How crystals grow

Waving and curling

See the cold flow

Other designs

Jack Frost can draw

Painting his marks

They are sublime.

Posing

Posted on January 28, 2023 Posted in Cat, UncategorizedTagged Black and white cat, Cat, Fun, Life, Poem, Poetry, poised, posing, sat, Sitting, Tuxedo catLeave a comment

Sitting on the chair

He doesn’t have a care…

The cat stares

Not on the stairs

His little paws

And gentle claws.

Perched on the edge

He finds a ledge

To sit on

If he can fit on…

Posing

As he’s reposing.

Cat

Not fat

Sat!

Poised

Clouds

Posted on January 26, 2023 Posted in Fine Art, UncategorizedTagged Art, Clouds, Fine Art, illuminated, Light, Painting, Poem, Poetry, Spode Reflected, WindowLeave a comment

I do like a nice cloud

Fluffy and full

Ready to rain

Ponds to fill still,

I like that cumulus

Or maybe a cirrus

Lenticular clouds

Spectacular layers.

Light shines through them

Illuminates your dreams

That silver lining

Will cheer you still.
