The formation of the squadron
came with a moment
Chassis and Wings coming together
with a single click
as planes from the past
joined up with their more younger cadets
on top of the bookshelves
and to stop two old veterans squabbling
they’ve each been given a runway
to stop them falling to pieces
#Napowrimo
San Rafael Algarve Portugal, 2017
Surrounding the border of the hotel swimming pool
petite full feathered friends
are creating their own kind of waves
roaming around the water and cooling off as
ripples are created as they
outlandishly divebomb on the
waters edge before
surfacing above the sunbathers

When i was little, i used to go
Out with mum and dad , and take in the
Natural beauty of the coastal beaches and amassed hillsides nearby
Dipping a toe in cold water and
Enjoying a walk
Round the bays, looking for interesting pebbles
What’s beyond that window in the cliff face
Or hiding in that hole in the sand ?
Nobody knew – so we decided to look
Dad helping lift up pebbles – as
Excitable little people watched
Red coloured crabs moving sideways towards the sand
an acrostic tale by inky, taken out of his repository at allpoetry.com
Peering into the deep china cup
each white wisp formed a cloud in the liquid
rolling around before rising in the air
chances were our drinker could
envisage the future from her brew
peering at the bottom of her
tannin stained tea receptacle
if you were expecting coffee
our mystic would say you would be wrong
no real mystic could read the mud from a coffee.

#food #acrostic #spaghetti #bolognaise
Sent headlong into the boiling water
Pasta long and thin took a bit of a hot bath
As it did, the concoction it was being served with
Gradually came together, as minced beef met up in a
Hot tomato jacuzzi with onion , carrot and mushroom
Eventually,
Turned out onto plates and sauce and pasta
Twirled together round a trident aided by a spoon
Italian cuisine turned out on Mancunian plates

Heavens above! is it Christmas already ?
Of course not….there’s five more weeks till then, but
Look around you and you’ll already see
Instant signs the festive season is almost here
Decorations, presents and Festive Food
All over the place, and yet – when Boxing Day gets here
You’ll all be talking about your two weeks in the sun

Been apart for a while , but
Really you never forget family
Out on the green fields
Two siblings meet, for the first time in a while
Happy to see each other, with
Eager calls and sniffs
Ready to run after one another for
Simply enjoying the moment
#Octpowrimo #Ocean #Sea
Sat on a boat in the Sunshine
enjoying the ocean blues
as the sealife swims alongside
Shoals of
excitable marine life
are following the line of the boat
Slicing through the waves
each passenger lifts up slightly
as the boat goes up a touch

Basic and spinal injury centre, Salford.
We’ve all played the board game of snakes and ladders before
The idea is you roll the dice, go up the ladders and down the snakes
all very straight forward , but has anyone tried playing it the other way round ?
Where you go up the snakes and down the ladders ?
It’s just as fun – and requires a lot of concentration – as you hit a ladder at the top and find yourself going down it instead of up.
We played it both ways – the reverse game is a lot more challenging.

Soon it will be summer,
Under the shade we will be
Making sandcastles on the shore
Moments away from the sea
Expect a visit from a fish or two
Reacting as you dip your toes in the waters
