“Some painters transform the sun into a yellow spot,
others transform a yellow spot into the sun”

Transmogrify

Follow
The yellow brick road
If you can find it
That is
Because for now
It’s all covered in snow!

The road less travelled
Is now covered
With a white substance!

Shine for The Daily Post

An unusual event
Over suburbia manifested
A late afternoon halo effect
Painted a glowy silhouette

The sun was rising
Over the horizon
Surely, a reason
For celebration
Especially here
In this season!

A big white ball
In nature’s great hall
It’s tentacles sprawled
Across the bluest of walls

“My perfect morning is spent drinking coffee,
eating porridge and reading the paper at a local café”
Anton du Beke

Local Book Mobile for the Daily Post

book-mobile-1

When you hear the sound of the wheels
As they slightly screech and squeal
A vehicle driving down the small road
All the kids are quickly up on their toes
Trying to get a glimpse of the nearing
Soon all their faces lit up and leering

The familiar sound of the tooting horn
Breaking the silence of the early morn’
The biggest of all the coaches
As the local book mobile approaches
Soon enough the children come a running
And started has the pushing and shoving

book-mobile-2

A little while later
Only the sound of paper
Rustling, as the books have found
A solid ground
In the hands of the readers
Truly, the books are mind feeders

Still Waters

After the storm has passed
The water’s surface like glass
Unstirred and calm
Like a cool dark liquid balm

Under the scorching sun
Time for some poolside fun
Diving into the turquoise
Joining the local tortoises
