Fountain swirls water;
rippling waves capture the sky—
faces reflecting

A Mallard moons me,
dabbling in the river’s bed—
lunch at the bottom

Her eyes wide staring
at full moon caught in the tree—
a blink sets it free

Thank you!

Host of Daffodils
blowing their tiny trumpets-
Wordsworth claps his hands

Blackbird, chiffchaff songs—
flutings with a steady beat;
a garden concert

Slip out of bed now,
to overcome lethargy—
sweet dreams cling to me

When she is upset,
cleaning windows comforts her-
seeing clearer helps

Winter light dappling
moss on an old tree’s branches-
emerald mantle

Triumph of the day-
my struggle to remember
the reed warbler's name

Suddenly the sun
after weeks of clouds and rain—
puddles shrivelling

Got no spam today-
not even a “You have won!”
They’ve forgotten me…

Heard the first chiffchaff
echoing from the garden-
buds slowly stirring

poetry’s vital role in coping with the horrors of war!

Sheaves of wheat lie tied
in fields sown with dormant mines-
Night drums out last light

she would be surprised

masks leering, lanterns aglow;
beat of drums and fifes

Damn, Word crashed again!

A toddler stares down the path;
mother gently restrains him—
wet fur, wagging tail

Wind rattling through trees;
fallen branches strewn on road—
a splintering crunch

It’s pouring outside—
hurry and get dressed for some
Singin’ in the Rain

Blue tits pecking at
crushed peanuts in the feeder—
a shadow hovers

Bare branches shake loose
last drops of glistening rain—
shutter bangs open

splashing away in puddles-
