Notable that moment , you were caught
Unawares – towels adrift and
Dressing gown cast on the floor
Expressionist – on the beach – perhaps – but in the flat – shut the door!
Holidays
Summer Break
HolidaysSitting in the garden
Playing with a ball
As Mum or dad
Call out – from beyond the hall
Excitement awaits – we’re off to the museums!
Down goes your head – you don’t want to see ’em
Of course, its not like you’re grateful – you’ve been there before
Up with your classmates – till gone half past four
The holidays are for fun – out in the fresh air!
! You’ll be going somewhere sunny soon – but you don’t care! !
In other words – Footprints on the beach
Childhood, Poetryin response to https://patriciasplace.me/2019/07/17/in-other-words-the-beach/
three sets of feet – Walking on the Sand
Rendezvous with candy floss
Sweet stuff acquired – but only two pairs of feet
Smaller pair of toes, treated by Big Feet
To a Piggyback
Countdown to the beach

Soon it will be summer,
Under the shade we will be
Making sandcastles on the shore
Moments away from the sea
Expect a visit from a fish or two
Reacting as you dip your toes in the waters

#FOWC
It’s the ability
to remember
names and faces and dates
times and events
from a long time away
so memories aren’t lost
of moments from a time
where the best time you had
was splashing your feet in the sea
Time travel
Beach, Growing up, Memories, Photography#Promptuarium #Photo Album
The Sands of time seem to pass
so slowly when you’re young
the cogs in the clock
seem like they don’t even move
And yet, sat with your nephews
on the big comfy sofa
you watch time go back
almost in an instant
Moments of fun
spent as a child
creating lines of sandcastles
on a northern beach
Decorations of seashells
and seaweed – covering the scene
as you and your pals
from down the street – enjoy an icecream
And faces gone – but not forgotten
look as fresh as the day the camera captured
the day little feet took a cautious dip
into northern waters

Things in 3
A shelf with a host of miniature objects. At the Front – Three Snowglobes
The First – a Winnie the Pooh Snowscene….
The Second – a Windmill Snowglobe from the Island Rhodes
The Third – a Snowglobe from the Sea Life Centre, Manchester
It didn’t matter if it didn’t snow this Christmas – these provided the snow to order!
Ascending II
Greece, Holidays, PoetryManchester (Via Rhodes) , 5th November 2018
As the fire took hold of the wood
I watched magical trails rise high in the air
Releasing colourful patterns in the sky
Rhodes ancient buildings painted
Over by Beautiful light
Created by Ignition – rising over walls and
Keep of the old city , bringing smiles to
Excited children and adults alike
Taking vacations on the island
Memories of a glass bottomed boat
PoetryRhodes, 18th October 2018
Watched with intent
As Mediterranean blue
Mixed with Aegean aqua
Travelling over waves
As crabs met tentacles
Admiring the land lubbers
Shellfish communicate with conch
The shows about to start
As hermit crabs scuttle towards the bigger fish
In an instant they appear
Waving a fin or a tentacle
In the greenest of blues
Catch of the day
Passes along the hull
To say hello and goodbye
Sunny days
PoetryRhodes, via Manchester 17th October
#octpowrimo #holidays #greece
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
