Rainbow

It’s the magical sign, after all the rain

The perfect curve, chromatic champagne

It brings a smile

For a little while

Nature’s beauty, and colourful vervain

Rainbow rising

Having a Laugh

Our burst of laughter, is long and loud

Heads are turning, in the nearby crowd

We wipe away tears

Forgetting our fears

Times are tough, but we won’t be cowed

Turning Heads

A Walk in the Woods – 2

A walk in the woods, is something I treasure

For body and soul, my go-to pleasure

Pretty birdsong does call

Streams tumble and fall

Feeling better now, peace beyond measure

Into the woods

A Walk In The Woods

A walk in the woods, is something I treasure

For body and soul, my go-to pleasure

Pretty birdsong does call

Streams tumble and fall

Feeling better now, peace beyond measure

Into the woods…

Seashell on the Seashore

Seashell, seashell on the seashore

Just the one, I was looking for

The sand I clear

Now I can hear

The tumbling sea, and endless roar

Seashell on the Seashore

The White Lady

She stands steadfast, a classic trope

Shining snow white, a beacon of hope

Against sea and storm

As gusts ‘round her swarm

Facing whatever, she’ll always cope

Leading Lady

Green Day

St Patrick’s Day, has finally come

Not much happening, no parades or fun

Stay firm with vigour

It is the trigger

To better times, for everyone

Stay firm

Take the Plunge

A gentle breeze blows, along the beach

When I take the plunge, a noisy breach

The shock is bracing

My heartbeat racing

For more uplifting days, I do beseech

Making a splash

Waiting on a Friend

Waiting on a friend, in the park today

Long-time no see, I hope he’s okay

Some time to share

Is without compare

‘Til we meet again, I’ll be on my way

Waiting on a Friend…

A firm adieu

Springtime is here, and a variant or two

Sneaky germ looking for, both me and you

Be on your guard

Do not be scarred

So we can bid this pest, a firm adieu

Flower Garden
Springtime is here
