Dove
Call for peace
Give life hope
Keep people safe
Forgive evil
Share love.
Peace not war

Mirror mirror
Mirror mirror, on the wall
What do you see, the room at all?
Do you see the world around
Clearly see where you are bound?
Into night, away from day
Where your owner learns to play
Music on the piano.
Making every hour go
So when a face you finally show
The thought is there
A face so fair.
Pier
I peer from the pier
At the sea
Look at the blue
Waves and sky
The handrail mimics the ocean.w
White clouds the balustrade.
Llandudno pier
Victorian beauty.
Glasses
Reflections, I see you
Like a glass of fizz
Blown bubbles
Or looking through a window
And paperweights can be glass
Bottles may pop
Alchemy of sand
Melts into liquid beauty.
Race to me
Run to me
Race across the fields
Rush like the wind
Raise dust with your hooves.
Gallop fast
Gather your strength
Give your heart to the world
Gentle and strong.
Fly like a bird
Full of excitement
From steepest of mountains
Farthest shores.
Horse, men call you
Held in esteem
Highest quality of beauty
Happy to see you.
What should I post?
Am I getting boring? A bit of art and sketching, some poetry, stories about cats.
Sketching, drawing, painting. What more things should I try? More short stories. I suddenly find my stats have dipped. Is it the weather, the time of year. The threat of war in Ukraine. I can’t imagine how that will pan out.
I’m looking forward to a supernova that they have said may flare up soon. I’m strangely enthusiastic about space and science. I’m really more interested in stars not stats. Does that make me boring? Too many questions. No answers
Limerick
Today’s prompt for Esther Chiltons limerick challenge is Bread this week. I wrote this poem to be humorous and although I hate marmite I wouldn’t try and stop anyone else eating it.
Limericks have two rhyming lines at the start, then two lines with a different rhyme and then one single, final line, that rhymes with the first two.
Maybe it’s time to get your pen out…?
Play with the words, it’s fun, no doubt!
Rhyme and couplet
Words you can bet
You can be a real limerick lout!
Sunshine!
Someone switched the light on?
Let the sun in
Opened the curtain
Star shining bright
Flooded with light
Flare of yellow gold
Shining through the cold
Makes me feel less old.
Treeman
Digital doodled
Drawing a tree
Or a man?
Mark making fun
Ideas on screen
Thinking allowed
With colours
And patterns
Experience experiment
Cats 🐾 paws
In from the storm,
Mud washed away
Pads cleaned
Claws neatly sheathed.
Paws glimmering white
Nose and head down
Curled up
Asleep on a cushion
Relaxed
Resting
Sweet
