Sat on a balcony
Watching the Grecian sun pass on by
After an age of her not being here
Years seem to have passed on by
Sudden quicken of the pulse
When her name is mentioned
A friendship, unlike any other
You’ll never know till you ask

Sandy beach
PoetryRhodes, Greece, 19th October
Summers last rays
And a chance of travel
Navigate their way to sandy shores
Definitely the place to get away from the wind and the rain
You will enjoy sinking your feet in soft sand
By the end of the day
Each of your needs will be catered for
As you lie on Grecian sands and
Clear blue seas
Hot weather might be going…enjoy it while it lasts
Little Train
PoetryLindos, 20th October
Little train
Indicates
To where is travels on
This island paradise
Lindos awaits..
Expect some fun and excitement
The train bell it
Rings out, as it passes it’s destination
Airport might be faster…but it’s not as much fun
In fact the toot of the horn, as you travel, makes you
Never forget your journey
Sunny days
PoetryRhodes, via Manchester 17th October

Zoomed off down the Aegean
To grab the last rays of European sun
Azure blue seas and light blue skies
My case so excited
It went for a wonder
On the carousel for all of fifteen minutes
Whilst bear has a new thinking spot
With full view of some wonderful scenery
Smiles in the sky

Affinity with eeyore
Sees me look up
To the night sky in
Reaction to the news
Our moon has made an appearance in
Northern skies
Out of the clouds it pops
Making the local wildlife smile and
Yelp back Hello Mr moon 😀

An acrostic by inky
Problems occur like the morning rain
Reality is, that’s what life has to throw at you
Each little problem, obstacle or challenge
Can topple you in an instant , however
In case you need them … there are
People who can help you,
In your hour of need
They’re there at a moments notice
An umbrella from the topping rain
They’re your friends, pals, buddies
In sight, in rain or shine
On good days or bad
Never forgetting you and bringing a smile

People
Look quite solid, when we are born
As we grow up, things change
Shaped by our elders, our teachers, our friends
Then formed by experience
In time, a degree of fluidity comes into play
Creativity, expression, emotion and love
Inscribed onto our characters and
New relationships…creating new
Experiences
Tortured

taken into consideration
over years of treatment, therapy, and exercise
reaction to my medical condition could be
taken as torture as
under orders from the quacks I’ve been
really put through the ringer…
even though , looking back, it was doing me good
An ink explosion
Life, Media, Poetry#octpowrimo #ifiwereyou
opinion is a wonderful thing
but after you’ve vented your spleen
across two pages of finest vellum
re read, recollect your thoughts, and rewrite
for once you’ve stuck it in the envelope
and it’s journeyed to the news paper
a different edition of who you are
will be plastered over the letters page
and though you won’t see them
all eyes will turn on you
Falling through the cracks

It’s hard for a seed
To grow up in the big city
As it flies from its mum
And falls to the floor
Drifting in the wind
If lucky, it will land
Onto soft warm soil
But usually, it finds concrete
So it sleeps , and it grows
Fed by the rain
While it finds its own way
Through the sand and the drains
Popping up for sunshine
To the world saying hello
Don’t pull it from the pavement
For a bit, let it grow.
Here’s Another poem on a tree seed Helicopters, feel free to take a look and comment
