#Fowc #Rebel
Salford, 6th July 2019
the one everyone remembered at school
not breaking the rules, just bending them
wearing skirts just above regulation
and turning up just in time avoiding detention
her fellow classmates – adored her act
popularity in the school yard ? – an absolute fact
but the lad in the library – reading his books
was the one she was after – if only he looked.
#FOWC #District
Down in the city
is a network of streets and buildings
some find it puzzling – so
to aid the visiting traveller
regions of the big city have been broken up
in an attempt to make things easier
city dwellers, can’t see these dividing lines though
to them – we all live in the same place
#Coloryourworld #Cyw #Beaver
Behind that pile of logs
Expect to find
A master dam builder
Versatile in river control
Examining each branch, log and twig, before laying them over the
River Bank, to create his construction
#Acrostic #Water
Rising up from the surface
In a kind of domino fashion
Pattern of concentric circles appear
Perpetrated by a pebble
Landing on, and falling through the water
Expanding outwards till they meet another circle when
Small Splashes occur on the surface
#fowc #dearth
whenever you hear of a crisis
you always hear this word
you never hear of a glut of solutions
that idea’s absurd
adequate isn’t the description
if it was – it wouldn’t be heard
scarce is more near the truth
no supplies to be found – that’s the word

Creativity
reality is – its your own
expression – you can do it through
a range of forms – music, dance, photography, or art
the choice is really down to you
if you want to make something – do it
versatility is the name of the game
indeed, what you make could be read, listened to, watched or eaten
there’s a host of things you could do to showcase your talent
you never know, if you don’t give it a try
#fowc #Delay
What is the Rush? Train Stopped
As it sits on Tracks, Locked
I am sat in the station cafeteria
Taking in a tea and cake
In expectation that the
Next locomotive is
Going where I want to go

#fowc #mist
The morning light falls
through fallen marshmallow
difficult to look through
just by looking
lights dipped low
as it slowly whirls around
noting the man in the reflective orange
encouraging you to slow down
familiar landmarks
obscured in the vapour
gravitate closer as you get near
greater fear – the mist gets denser – when
you find yourself chasing shapes
#Fowc #Bargain
If it’s what you’re after
its the deal of the day
you’re keeping half the price
in your little pink purse
for getting to wear all
of that little black dress
