New paintings and regular art updates.
What is your middle name? Does it carry any special meaning/significance?
I’m not saying….
My bank account is…
My height is…
I’m not saying….
I live at…
I have xxxx coloured hair
My eyes are…
I’m not saying…
My pets name is…..
My house number is..
My social security number is..
I’m not saying..
My passwords are…
I’m a bot, or not?
I’m not saying!
Oh you rascal!
I can’t move..
Pinned down
By my cat!
On my legs
Just out of reach
Inscrutable stare
Always there
When I wake up!
Now I’m stuck
But you’re so cute
I forgive you
You’re neat
And sweet!
Behind the glass
Beyond the tree
And house of brick
Lies the hill.
Behind that hill
And valley wide
Sits the horizon
Where the sun rides.
It sinks below
And it’s last rays
Illuminates
A golden glow
On the glass
In brilliant ways.
Well I don’t like this swinging line
To other users it might be fine
But irritating I think it is
To see stats displayed like this
It gives me vertigo like I’ve drunk wine!
…….
Oops! They are there! You have to slide the screen sideways!
One day I want to see
Shimmering Northern lights
Lighting up the sky
The Aurora Borealis, bright.
Green or red or white…
Different colours, different elements
Curtains of particles
Flying on Earth’s magnetic field
Falling to land at the poles
Glowing glory
Suns power manifested in air
My bucket list wish.
Seen in England last week
But hidden by clouds….
Glass bright
Transparent
Light
Sparkle and shine
Malleable
Ground, sand
Melted silica
Moulded and pressed
Strong and brittle
Cast and blown
Overwhelmed
By its beauty
What do you do?
Stuff belongs to you
Full of metals
Thrown away
Digital devices
PC’s, Tablets, phones….
Lithium? Tantalum?
Rare earth metals
I don’t know
Dig up gold
Bury it in landfill?
Repair and recycle
Use our resources
Sensibly, sparingly
Safely….
Plonked down
on a bath towel
On a mat
There’s the cat
In a basket snug
Like a bug in a rug!
Paws over nose
Or tail across his face
They will find any place
To snuggle
Or be cuddled
Sleep 16 hours
Glad he’s ours!

Oh I keep scrolling down the page
Facebook posts are all the rage
Never ending thoughts and hopes
I don’t know how anyone copes!
Addicted to that vertical scrolling
Dragging my eyes, they keep rolling!
Bits and bobs, this and that
Someone’s thin someone’s fat.
A work of fiction or of fact
But intelligent thinking is what’s lacked?
Sometimes serious causes emerge
But often it’s just a tawdry surge
Of endorphins keeping me awake
Switch it off. For goodness sake!
Argh! I’ve been out all afternoon working on some paperwork and I got really tired. I should have gone out this evening, but I fell asleep and woke up a while ago, feeling dazed and confused as the saying goes. I don’t feel like going for a walk, I think I’m allowed a rest. I feel very guilty, but if I fall asleep I must be tired? I know I shouldn’t miss things but I couldn’t help it. Now I feel like sleeping again. I should write a limerick!
Please forgive my tardy brain
I should go out, but what a pain!
I just fell asleep
My dreams to keep
I want to go to sleep again!
