Inspired by the Salt & Pepper Design Team, i’ve been writing acrostics and poetry using some of their fab graphic fonts – I posted “Doggies” last week, so here’s something less canine, more feline

Darkness
#Octpowrimo #animals #halloween
Halloween seems to have come early
the lights outside have dimmed
nothing around in the skies
but on terra firma hear dogs and cats cry
they scamper around for a way in
disturbing stray metallic food tins
they really dont like to give their owners a fright
but watch as they head for that security light
Pink flamingo
#cyw #pinkflamingo #octpowrimo
playing around with his feathers
Balanced on one leg
Waiting for that moment
When the keeper comes in
And throws another shovel
Of fresh Morecambe shrimp
Into the water
Taking Five
#Relaxation #Elephant #Watering hole
Pampering after a long day in the
african sunshine
catching rainbows in their
homemade bubbles
younger members of the family
directing streams of water towards
either mum or dad
reaction – a rockabye in either trunk while in
muddier spots – hippo’s are happy in their holes
Elephant
Each line of the elephant’s hide
like its mum and dad before it, has been well earned
each wrinkle in the trunk
positioned from moving fallen trees and
hosing down his brothers and sisters
at the jungle watering hole
now – when you catch his eye – he’ll observe you closely
that’s collected wisdom collected in every wrinkle and ripple
Song
#Socs #Song
It’s been really quiet recently.
Actors and musicians have been in their rooms
the theatres have closed because of a bug
no buskers on the street either
Something needed to be done
resident birds calling out in tune
celebrating the sunshine
telling the human beans indoors
it’s time to get up
Cats on a street pavement
Singing in chorus
On a street corner
Dogs howling at the moon
wailing a familiar tune
out in the midnight garden

“Looks like we’re going shopping kids, there’s now’t in the fridge for tea!”
The bears move house
As regular readers of my blog will know, I’ve been shifting things around to accommodate my new bits of aerial artwork, namely my quickbuild planes from airfix
They’re now all happily parked on the top of my bookshelves, so when little paws show up with my sister…they won’t get accidentally broken
However, this has meant the little Disney toys I picked up from the Disney store in Manchester have had to find a new spot to sit.
They’re now sat on a lower bookshelf looking after the books, which they’re sat in front of. This means my nephews can pick them up and play with them as they want, without disturbing any of the squadron.
