Used to write in my youth. Bit of a greeb...

Now my sons off to university i've got a bit more time for these things again. Not exactly The Smiths but i had a go.

birdwatching

the pigeon in my garden
has been looking over his shoulder at me
tucking away my cans
for the evening

the pigeon has been eating
my white bread crusts
but won’t touch
my awful cooking

the pigeon coos in the mornings
as i wake up
and go to work
he coos and I wave

I call him Kirk

I have a hedgehog in my garden
A little spiky bugger.
But he eats things that eat my plants
And is not much of a hugger.

Oh spoon you are so scoopy
And good for eating soupy.
Oh fork for one that dines
I love your little tines.
Oh knife that likes to slice
You really are dead nice.
Oh sporks across all nations
You're all freakish abominations.
