Considering its not the warmest
Outside, and it
Looks like autumnal weather is here
Like an old friend
Application of a Woollen Jumper or Scarf might be in order
Really good Duffelcoat or Waterproof to keep out the rain
Something tells me we’re going to need it
Until mother nature allows the mercury to rise – its best to
Prepare….stay indoors if you don’t have to go out – wrap up if you do

They Call it “Modern Living”
as they rise up to the sky
colourful boxes in formation
thirty or fourty miles high
You would definately call it colourful
You could also call it cosy
You could even call it sardine-like
as you give your neighbours a nosy
Some like the format of it all
as they talk to the neighbours ‘cross the way
but some don’t like the shadows
its night in the middle of the day
Balconies round a patch of green
which after sundown, isn’t often seen
watching the clouds pass in the sky
and seeing the odd bird fly by

In a rock garden, secluded away from the weather
a hardened young magpie, is out to make things better
he’s building up a place, for his mate to lay eggs
or simply for somewhere to rest her legs
and with things he’s located about and around
he’s decorated the nest site and the surrounding ground
#cyw #orchid
Over time the orchid plant
Releases the colour hidden away in its stems
Crafting flowers of such beauty, you would have thought
Heaven’s angels had crafted each one
It takes time to grow an orchid with such colour and beauty, but its
Definately worth every second waited
#Writephoto #Darkness
Due to a change in Ra’s schedule
Arrangements were made to entertain the wildlife
Rainclouds danced about in the changing sky, but they
Kept on calling for the sun to stay about
Night time wasn’t fun for most of the animals in the fields
Exception ? those living under ground who would
Surface, during the dark hours for a
Snack or two.
Sole observer watching by the shore, as
hopping and skipping towards the beach
in a race to get to him
many of Neptune’s and Ra’s children
move hop skip and jump creating colourful patterns
each one hoping they’ll get there first
racing bring smiles to all who see it
#CYW #MidnightBlue
Moonlight brings a spot of colour to nightime
it brings a touch of blue to a
dreamy scene…highlighting the
number of marshmallow clouds floating
in the sky around the moon
gravitating tween the moon and her reflection in the
half-light dispersed by the water of
the lake below

Swifter than their feathered brethren – they
welcome the signs of a changing breeze
it means they’ll be off with their cousins the swallows
for some warm air , seeds and sunshine, whilst
taking occasional naps under leafy sunshades
Some might say they float in the air
when these birds have their wings stretched out
imminent signs of departure – remote
for they’ll need to fill their bellies
to have the energy to fly towards the warm sun

“Looks like we’re going shopping kids, there’s now’t in the fridge for tea!”
No rumble of traffic
No noise in the street
Not many people
Navigating the street
But somewhere in th’ treetops
swaying in the air
families of birds are
chatting away there
Singing ’bout blue skies
and the weather that’s greet
while on mobile’s behind the glass
the humans all tweet
