The Inkwell
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

Doing schoolwork when the sun is shining is
A bit of a chore – and kids have been doing it for
Years, staring out the window
Doodling sheep out of the clouds
Reactions from the teacher ?
Expected, but getting angry won’t grab their attention
As the warm rays cast onto the tables of the classroom
Making colourful rainbows across the table
#coloryourworld #cyw #wildblueyonder
Heading out to sunnier climbs
the sea looks jewel like from up here
an absent-minded deity
must have dropped it from above
Wild blue yonder – tween sky and space
up in the clouds – the planes keep a pace
so passengers landing, on islands they’ll stay
and enjoy some sun, some rest and some play
Nothing to see but sea and sky
as through the marshmallow clouds we fly
heading for azure waters of greece
and sun, sea, quiet and peace
Salford, 10th November 2016
The weather has taken a bit of a turn at Inkdrop House,
Believe it or Not, despite these dirty great grey clouds outside the window
THE SUN IS SHINING OUTSIDE!!!!
There is however – a serious drop in temperature, which has led some in the house to crank up the central heating.
I could retreat to the warmth of my duvet – but I’ve got another shift at Imperial War Museum North to go to – a second layer is definitely required.
11.34 am – I think somebody upstairs heard me typing
(Amazing what a bit of Blue sky thinking will do eh?)
In response to the daily post prompt Morning
Looking out of my window on a summers day in Salford
Warm, Gentle Breezes
and a patchwork of Marshmallows are floating in the sky
The sun is playing peek-a-boo behind one of those clouds 🙂 but he’s there – and should the breezes do their work, they’ll be some lovely blue skies when I make my way to the museum this afternoon.
I could get all poetical – but I’ve already delved into that particular pie – the link is below, enjoy.
The sky is blue
a perfect weather day
white fluffy cloud sheep pass on by
Somewhere up there
the wind is playing gently
moving a kite to and fro
Occasionally the sun
plays peek-a-boo
or Hide and seek
as the clouds pass by
And the hide and seek goes on
behind a building or hill
and will keep on moving and hiding until
Mother nature tells him its time for his bed
and its time for the moon
to play with the clouds instead.
A set of three-liners to do with the summer season, enjoy
Ra has awoken
sending his blessings
to his worshippers, below
Patchy blue skies
Cannot stop arrival
of Bright Blue Bermudas
As Mercury rises
coolness of oceans
provides a delightful breeze
And Ice-cream men
across the land
smile at empty serving pots
The Heatwaves delightful
under a parasol
and the sea ? Dive In!
