Marching splendidly
Patrolling the room-kingdom
I leave it to stomp

Sorry to hear this
news DilemmaDelilah
hope you are home now

knitwear

Cold rain is falling
Cold wind is calling, calling
Lord, keep my bones dry

sunshine

The sun is an arse.
Making me sweat my tits off
Puts me in a huff.

Dogs

She doesn't worry
About the past or future
~ my four-legged Zen

Winter

The hibernation:
cool darkness, nature sleeping.
Lights ablaze! Christmas!

Massive salad

Overflowing bowl
Big mix of smells and colours
Flavours and textures

Summer holiday

We're all going on
a summer holiday, in
a month or seven

Treats

I've eaten them all
The shame hangs on my tummy
Christmas soon, repeat

Ikea

Maze of temptation
Obligatory warehouse fight
Flatpacking’s not fun

Exercise

Started sertaraline
my first time
will I see the light?

The only reason
I run is if a tiger
Is right behind me

Fashion

That wraparound skirt
I remember that
~ and you
were drop-dress gorgeous

Autumn

My favourite season
sunny days and coloured leaves
and my birthday month

soup

Veg and stock in pan
Whizzing with the blender
Cosy comfort food

Sheep

Lamb baas for mother
Body near levitating
Becomes a trumpet

Weeding

The gardener's life.
Constantly stooping mid walk
To pull up a weed.

Robins

I should be working
I really can't be bothered
Is it home time yet?

Turmeric lattes
Light up the escalator.
Rude drawings in snow.

Swearing

@ToThineOwnSelf

I'm home and well
or as well as I can be
thank you for asking

Swears only done by
'Uneducated people'?
Nah, I just like it.

Decorating the tree

Let's use real candles.
I long for the good old days
When things could catch fire.

Nativity play

Sweet little faces
Sing 'Away in a Manger'
And tinsel halos

Christmas carols

Sorry, going to do my own one!

I love a descant
Line soaring above the tune
Makes it unearthly.

Smoke

The holly and the
Fa la la LA LA la la
Come a wassailing

Puddings

Our breath curls like smoke
As we come in from the cold
The scent of nutmeg

Surprise
