Sunny Days (four)

“I do hope
that our spring
will be starting shortly
and we will all be able
to enjoy some sunshine
again”
Lesley Garrett

Sunny Days

A house of dreams
Or so it seems
On the solemn island
But oh so close
To the main land

Fisherman

Fisherman keeps fishing
The water’s depth dishing
Not a moment of the day missing
When he keeps on fishing

Winter Cottage

Buried deep in snow
When the hard winds blow
Life going very slow
Time quicker will not flow
Then all you can say is:
“Doh!”

Garden Memories

A cliché shot
Is what I got
From the summer this year
Remembering, now that winter is near
Wishing it was summer
But oh bummer
We still have several months
So just enjoy the scones
And something warm to drink
Let the memories sink
And sooner than later
The image from paper
Will turn to reality!

River Negro

“Ol’ man river
Or in this case River Negro
It shows no mercy
Which surprised Darcy
So just go
With the river’s flow”

Mom and Us

Our Mom
In our house
In the middle of our street
Getting us
On our tiny feet
Shouting orders
Beyond the borders
She can show a mean streak
But also act very sleek
Always our best in heart
So do no try to be smart
And do as she says
Not as she does
And you’ll be
Just fine!

River Negro

“Row row row your boat
Down the river Negro
Merrily merrily merrily merrily
Life is going full steam!”

Nostalgia

When you are remembering
The “good old days”…

…How things seem better in so many ways
Only now wishing
Would stay as they are
And nothing and no one would go very far

Island Life

Not a pin drop can be heard
Not even the chirping of a bird
On this island far and remote
Be sure to bring a full tote
There will be no ships nor boats
Just a very, very wide mote
Between you and the creature comforts
But we can promise you lots of
Hard work and windy air
But to be fair
You wanted to get away from it all!
