Almost every Monday I have a charity thing. I like that. I do” Yogi Berra
Pretty in Yellow
Yellow!
Said the fellow
As he helloed
With a bellow
Of a voice
A little rejoice
In his voice
After all
He had broken protocol
And was finally
Smelling the flowers

Red Roses
Roses are red
Violets are blue
And so am I
So try not to mind
This poem has no rhyme

“I have always been caught by the pull of the unremarkable, by the easily missed, infinitely nourishing beauty of the mundane.” Tana French, Broken Harbour
Peekaboo
Behind the shades
Before the sunlight fades
Peekaboo!
I see you!

Monday Again
It’s Monday again
I tried to stay in bed
Sleep in
But why bother
For next week
Another Monday
Will raise its head

Grey
Is it a smoke?
Is it a gun?
Is it a pipe?
It does not poke
It’s not even fun
It’s just a hype
It’s a piece of art

Almost Art
It’s off the chart
A piece of objet d’art
Looks kind of smart
Add it to your cart
If you have a heart
And a complimentary tart
Will give you a jump-start
For no one can tear it apart
Because it’s almost a work of art

Tree Line
Painted with the finest ink
Added a little hue of pink
The colouring book of nature
Quite a spectacular feature
Across the evening sky

Glass
A reflecting vortex
Into a bottomless pit

The obvious
Becoming complex
