Pat and bat
Vat and Mat
So many words
Rhyme with Cat.
Like sat and drat
Fat and splat
Is it the at
On the end that
Makes what

Light and shade
Parquet floor in sunshine
Memory of a life drawing class
So many years ago
In my mind I’m back
Sitting on a donkey?
A wooden bench
Which was also an easle.
Drawing a figure
Bathed in light
Shadows cast
Shining parquet floor
I wish I could
Return to those days.
Had to…
I saw a dragon
Hiding in plain sight
Standing by graffiti
Under a street light
But when I looked away
And looked again
I say!
The dragon it was gone
It decided not to stay!
I just wanted a pic
On my phone
But it was too quick!
So sadly all I have
Is its tail- just the tip
And a shower of loose scales
One of many epic fails!
Goodbye dragon
And now you’re gone!
Boredom
Staring into space
Staring over the sea
A lone figure, that is me.
I want silence,
or quiet waves lapping
A gentle breeze.
Not lonely, just bored.
Every Sunday was boring
In my youth
Shops shut
Nothing to see or do!
Now I feel the same
No-one is to blame!
But I’m bored,
So bored…
Bored
Bird limerick
Bird on a post it note
On paper it seems to float.
Bright yellow and white
What a pretty sight..
Drawn for fun, gets my vote!
You can probably tell, I haven’t been very active today. Bit ill, not feeling well. I found this bird collage on an old sketchbook from 2021. I decided to share it with a little limerick. I had lots to do but haven’t been out. My hubby did some shopping and I’m laying low. If I feel better later I will blog again.
Pool…
EstherChiltonblog sets word challenges on a Monday and a Thursday which I like to try. Today’s was laughing along with a limerick and the challenge word was POOL…
I decided to write something silly…
A pool table on a pool is odd!
But there it floated on its tod
It seemed unattended?
But suddenly, that ended
As the black was potted by a Cod!
Shadow of a cat
Cat climbing the steps
Elegant curves
Held aloft
Proud feline
Made of steel
Forged in coal
Black shadow
Encompassed by sunlight.
Nine lives
Wrought with love
Demise of a bird
You sang, you flew
Perched and pecked
Hopped in the grass
Stood on the branch
You slept soundly
Woke at dawn
Gave voice to beauty
Slept again.
What befell you?
I do not know
But fall you did
Farewell to you.
Moon over sunset
Sunset haze in Cornwall
Moon flys above
Silver glow over pink and purple
Fields are green and lush
Tides grow as moon and sun pull
Gravity from one direction
Water bulges
Seas rise and then subside.
Crepuscular light
Before the night.
Don’t flytip!
Dumped
Tyre quoits
Don’t do it!
Dispose of correctly
Care for the world
It doesn’t need our rubbish
Encompassing the world
With our rubber and plastic
Destroying nature
With our excrement.
😞
