Old mold for a pot,
Vase never to be cast.
Waiting on a window sill
To be made?
No your day has gone,
You are part
Never to be one
And whole.
Broken, split
Your clay slip spilt.
When no longer useful
You become an ornament.

About a random photo…
Yellow gold,
Spun sunshine
Fresh greens
Like limes
Flowers like crumpled paper.
Lemon yellow
Papaver Hibernica?
Welsh poppy
Red drained to orange and yellow.
High in windblown meadows,
Summer in your petals
Giving your celtic roots
Room to roam.
Dragon?
I saw this today above Etruria. It looks a bit like the Welsh Dragon. The head end is a bit wispy… But if you squint?
White hot dragon,
Flying above
Breath of flame spinning out
Into the sky.
Cloudy dragon
Seen on high,
Your wings encompass
Your claws slash,
Icy dragon
Cold and serene
Flying veins of snow
Fire and steam
Melts your heart
Makes mine beat.
Variegated
Variegated leaves
Your identity mottled,
Yellow and Pink,
Magenta and green.
Veined and speckled,
Xanthaphyl and
Chlorophyll,
Anthocyanine.
These are pigments,
Changing light to food.
Shade loving or sunlit,
Deciduous wonders,
Delightful colours.
Wisps of fantasy,
Patterned delights,
A figment of imagination
Made reality.
Al**a play Blondie, Atomic
Al**a play this
Al**a play that,
Al**a lower volume
Favorite tunes
Let’s dance!
Play music
Jump around
Remembering the 80’s
Having fun
How we danced
Remembering a life
Now gone…
Sleeping cat
I got up this morning,
Cat jumped up,
Fell asleep!
On the bed,
Where my head
Had been two minutes before.
What a cheek,
The cat out flat.
Asleep,
On the bed!
Watch out cat….
I might use you as a pillow!
Pinkish windows
When you take a photo of an old window under purple sunsets you can get something of an interesting hue.
Ink turns pink
Sky’s surprise
Window brightened
With sunsets flight.
Glowing purple
Violet hue
Salmon sprinkled
In the blue.
Glint of crimson
Sizzles over
Bleeding sky
Paints walls anew.
The letter Q.
Q, such a strange letter,
Comes after P, before R,
But it sounds like it should be
At the end, with Y and Z (zed or zee).
Quick, quiet, quad, Queen….
Why does it come with u?
Quest, quark, quince, quorum….
What does it mean to you?
Alpha, bet, questions.
Really quincunx, quintiles, quiescent, qualified…
It’s a quiz or a quest!
Doing a favour.
My friend needed help today, she is not from this city and she does not have many friends so I offered to help ring a company for her to help sort a problem out.

Ring, ring, ring, ring.
All of our assistants are busy
There will be at least a twenty minute wait.
Soft, gentle music……
Silence
Hello? Hello?
Hang up!
Him
His mind burns
Fights, races,
Chases fears
Anxiety
Scared,
Hates to worry
But has no escape.
Life continues,
Races away.
Fear continues
Digs in.
Ties guts and nerves,
Tears confidence.
Hides ideas.
Anxiety bubbles
Like a cauldron,
Withered, cracked, split and spilt
Mind shrunken by adversity.
Let HIM be free….
