Crafted over time for those
On the seven seas to
Move across areas of charts
Positioned to cross from
Areas of land in the north to island in the
South, enabling prospectors to
Sail in the search for treasure

Wagon
Acrostic#Fowc #Wagon
Western’s always had one of these in a movie,
as they rolled through wild American country on a search for
gold, minerals or prosperous plains of plenty
over rocky terrain, sandy deserts and swamps they’d travel
north south east, but mostly west on search for a fortune
Prone
Acrostic, Health, PoetryIn response to Fandango’s one word challenge
Perhaps, the pesky little twinges will
Run off and go somewhere else
Only time will tell….till then you’re
Not moving , in the
Expectation those pests will get bored
Oranges
Acrostic, Food, Fruit, Poetry#fruit #Oranges
On bright summer days in spain or Greece, you’ll find these
Ripening nicely on a coastal tree somewhere
As the fruit gets ready to drop – its colour goes
Navigating from Green to Orange…a sign the fruit is
Getting ready for eating
Each nice eaten on their own , with ice cream, or perhaps
Some sugar
Track
Acrostic, Life, Poetry#Fowc #Track
Sunday 14th April
Two lines of sturdy steel
Rolling down the road, from point a to point b
A thing for the engine to be able to travel
Connecting people and places across this isle
Keeping people moving

#Fowc #Watch
A marvel of invention
Before it , you had to had to rely on the grandfather clock
Chiming away, or its bigger reletive
Down in the town square, of course
Everyone is transfixed
Fixated with time
Going from place to place without taking in the places around them
Memories
Acrostic, Freedom of Expression, Seaside#memories
Many a happy time
Enjoyed on the shoreline
Munching away at the contents
Of a well prepared picnic basket
Roast chicken sandwiches and strawberry tarts
Iced buns and banana pudding….
Eaten on a camp blanket, by a rocky shelter
Somewhere where the sardines are safe from the local seagulls

Hope
Acrostic, Freedom of Expression, PoetryI
Holding on to
One beam of starlight – the
Possibility that , Perhaps
Everything will be ok when the sun comes up
II
Heaven’s Gift,
Over which
People have positive thoughts for
Everything Going Right

The wind was brewing up a storm
under the feet of the resident pigeon flock
swirling around and giving
some of our feathered chums – quite a hard time of it.
luckily the nearby building works gave some shelter
expect more tomorrow, as the winds brother comes up for a visit
Celebration
Acrostic, Freedom of ExpressionAnother piece from Inky, in response to richa’s Freedom of Expression Challenge
Crack open the party poppers, for its an
Extra special day today
Lots of people are coming to share in
Excitement, in honour of somebody who’s having a really significant
Birthday….
raise the roof
and dance till you drop….
tell the celebrant how loved they are
on their very special day – and
never forget to enjoy yourselves too!
