The Time’s a Changin’

The time’s a changin’, and soft light fades

Jack Frost is here, his cold touch invades

But do not you fear

There’s much to cheer

Long walks, hot drinks and noisy charades!

There’s much to do!

Poem written is response to the Hour Falling Back!

Telling Tales

I have my coffee, and a sweet cake

At a crowded table, inside the gate

With friends telling tales

And some biting nails

It’s a great moment, and not one to break

The People’s Park, Dun Laoghaire

Curve of the bay

It’s lovely to see, and always a thrill

Viewed from high, the heart it does fill

Sweeping ‘round the bay

Taking my breath away

Hugging waters so blue, and mirror still

Killiney Bay, Dublin

Fun in the Sun

Walking on sunshine, the only thing to do

The sky is clear, and it’s great being with you

Let’s have fun in the sun

There’s no need to run

On the warm beach, neath a canvas so blue

Walking on Sunshine

Sandymount Strand, Dublin

Clouds

They pass on high, without a sound

Day and night, by wind they’re bound

Whether black or white

Such nebulous delight

They make images, that do astound

Big Cloud Country

Bright Colours

The equinox is over, and the nights close in

Bright colours excite, as the air grows thin

Leaves struggle but fall

To nature’s last call

Wrap up well, another autumn does begin

A riot of colour
