Maybe its the
illuminating colours i
like about them, but i
keep returning to the coffee shop
slurping them down and
having a marvellous time
allying icecream, banana, and the freshest milk
kept cold in an ice cold frosty refridgerator
enjoyable on any seasonal day
#Fowc #Cordial
Crafted from the finest grapes, raspberries and blackcurrants
Out of the copper kettle it came
Reinforced with herbs and spices , not forgetting the sugar
Drank in a ceramic mug
It’s something to be enjoyed either hot or cold, but
As its Autumn, and Winter is around the corner
Likelihood is you’ll be warming your fingers around the mug holding it

A tale of an ice cube in Summer, by Inky
An ice cube took a holiday
from the freezer he was in
took a trip to warmer times
enjoying with a grin
He sat on a place by some fruit
just by the processed meat
and began to drip on his saucer
staying together – a bit of a feat
Avoiding the butter and onions
he waited in his pool
dripping away in the fridge
while others thought it cool
but then oh what a great big show,
as into a jug he did go
joining the fruit and ice cubes in the pool
keeping the humans lovely and cool

Carrying on like they were in nirvana
Alert – the bouncers on the door
Rowdy – you’d call their behaviour – as they left the
On-licence publican’s for a place a little bit incognito
Under each of the revellers arms
Something rich, and red and alcoholic to go with their meal
Expect some fun and games at the Bring your own bistro

#fowc #can
Container – made of
Aluminium – containing something
Nice, Fruity and Fizzy
Cornucopia of flavours held back by
A steel ring pull
Now Chillin’ in a cool space
Could be a surprise upon opening
A release of the fizz under pressure
Nobody knowing what happens next – take cover!

Biting the tongue
in an instant,
the tang that is unforgettable
taking your taste buds on a whirlwind
expedition as it journeys
round your mouth
sensational flavour that brings
water to your eyes – as it wasn’t
expected, rising and
elevating each
taste sensation , till you finish the glass.
My latest piece for Allpoetry.com
which I’ve decided to share with you all….enjoy
Fresh from a Lakeland reservoir
turned over by occasional waterfall
a polar bears delight
particularly in winter season
Hitting the receptacle crisply
it creates a bubble or two at the bottom
bringing out the flavour
of the drink it dilutes
Refreshment in Hot days
as well as cold
delivering fruitiness to the taste buds
like an bullet express train
Do you want it colder ?
then leave it in the fridge
or make it frosty instantly
with a couple of ice cubes
#Octpowrimo
Crafted from the cocoa bean and
Hot steamed milk
Out of the cold autumnal morning
Comes something warm and satisfying
Only your tastebuds can truly tell why you
Like it so much
As you send a biscuit in
The sweet smelling brew, for a bit of an
Explore
#milkshake #summer
Maybe it’s the summer weather
inviting my tastebuds to
lap up this strawberry infused delight, but i
keep on returning to it on
sun drenched days. Perhaps it reminds me of
holidays, under a parasol …. it
always seems to
keep me cool
even in the most exceptional of temperatures
Lowry outlet mall costa, 21st march
a foodie poem by inky
Light lemon sponge
and luscious lemon jam
yell out a spring special to
enjoy with an afternoon cuppa
really zesty and delicious
