living in my head

or forgotten in corners -

unused ideas

#14

orange and lemon

combined into something new,

a mix of two things.

how many grapefruit people?

how many hybrid people?

#525

murdered by fortune

(the sort you have told to you) -

slowly it crushed him.

#524

soap bubble, soap bub

Ble, soap bubble, soap bubble -

so lovely to say!

#523

transfixed in wonder

not quite daring to touch the

soap bubble floating

soap bubbles drifting

above the rooftop, tiny

signs of child’s play

soap bubbles from hands

evoke some of the finest

memories of nan

soap bubble laughter

seen and heard over the fence

as the sun beats down

when the end does come,

it will be the most fleeting

moment of your life.

#518

lis’ning to his voice

recording on the platform

became a comfort

#517

a writing week off

and purely accidental

other things on mind

#516

always searching for

continuous improvement -

there is always room

#515

serendipitous

finds on the library shelves - 

pearls are everywhere

#514

outside that loop now,

i can enjoy from afar -

only a voyeur.

#513

i won't take doughnuts

when anyone is looking

(i want it secret)

#512

along Forest Lane

“in an interstellar burst”

crying in the car

#511

follow the ginger 

tail to the ends of the earth - 

All hail campus cat!

#510

Orla, spread your wings - 

encase your friends completely,

they need protection.

#509

ginger campus cat

basking in the morning sun,

the afternoon shade.

#508

always round the back

basking in the sunshine there -

do its owners know?

#507

the light from shadows

is the most bright light of all -

for you lit the match!

#506

in one hand is light,

in the other is darkness.

now to find balance.

#13

light from my pockets

I bring out to dispel dark

thoughts that surround me.

activities are the thing

to keep my mind from wand’ring.

#505

fellow travellers

searching for the light of spring

can’t escape winter

#504

walking where I would

normally be driving I 

curse all the traffic

#503

walking where I would

normally be driving I 

crush snails by mistake
