... and occasional Tanka. Started after a competition on the unbound.co.uk blog (see#1 and #2).
Long winter shadows,
All day on the edge of dusk;
Long for midnight sun.
That Friday feeling
Cannot be dampened by rain -
Bring on the weekend!
Only shows itself that once.
You can only try.
A swan on a lake.
Majestic is over-used.
Regal, instead, then.
Almost run over
By a silent taxi cab.
Been away too long?
The two references,
The keys to the covid jabs -
My magic numbers.
Trapped in a body,
Find ways to communicate.
Use your prison well.
Its stripey woollen
Jacket taking me back there.
Grandma’s tea cosy.
Hot and steamy, hmm,
Smooth curves deliciously warm.
A pot of looseleaf.
The loud clock ticking
Answers all of the questions
In the team meeting
Pot, tea, water, milk,
A book, snacks, a place to sit.
Time just melts away.
Talk and treats, a place to sit -
Time will melt away.
