There is something of
clear blue sky on summers days
brings smiles to small faces
Opportunities
to play fun games in the park
or enjoy picnics
small breezes produce
a wonderful chance for kids
to enjoy kite flying
from inkdrop – poetry, places and events



#Simply6Minutes

pirate of the seas
did a deal with men in green
sailing to a map spot
other pirates had yet seen
upon landing his crew
dug at the spot
and all they smiled and cheered
dancing on the deck of their boat
till the sun it reappeared
but alas – the hold it was empty
no beams of gold were shone
for by the light of the sun and the moon
the leprechauns and their gold – were gone


It starts off simply enough
a place to rest your head
a spot to draw water from deep underground
and a spot to grow food on
Wood from the forest
make shelters
and stones from the hills
make walls
shiny stuff down in the ground
used for bangles or beads
also used for
buying stuff
Roads connect you
with nearby neighbours
who bring new things
and you sell them
And as some become friends
others covet your things
so metal and wood
combine for defence



little miss medusa
in an Irish zoo
zipped around quite anxious in
a bit of a todo
realing from the open news there were no snakes or cousins
disappointing those living as her hair, of which there were more than a dozen
instead inside the reptile house
they played a little game
to find the coloured lizards
and put the keepers to shame
