When you entered the room
Instantly, you turned the boys heads
Like Desdemona had arrived
Dynamic
Heaven’s angel mixed with Hell’s fury
Only time would decide what happened next
Meeting up with old friends
By the banks of the waterside
Reality – you would be back at your post come morning
Expectations – out of the window.

It’s a funny old game is Football
You walk for miles down roads and up stairs
to get to those golden ticketed chairs –
then as players take to the field
you wait for the referee to yield –
the man in the middle – you await his call
and for stars on the pitch to start kicking the ball.
Then as it does,
and ball travels back
a flag or a whistle stops the attack
and you lament the official – in yellow blue or black
But in his defence – he follows the rules
and his fellows know their stuff – they’re no fools
So when whistle is signalled and games underway
They’re there to ensure there’s a bit of fair play.
And when defender tackles striker,
and he goes in far too hard.
The Man in the middle gives warning
with a bright yellow coloured card.
And player knows better, to look out instead
as the last thing he wants to see is red!
And when the match is over,
He whistles out to all…
“The match time is now finished –
That’s the last kick of the ball!”

Take your pick…colours of the rainbow await
Red, Green, Yellow, Gold and Blue (if you can get it)
no need for CD-R pens, the computer has done the marking for you
and its much neater than a scribble
so instead of you flipping the CD for a title
you know from the pic you took – its on the Disc!
“Weather”

“Red skies at Night, Shepherds Delight…..“
This old phrase is still around today.
It was the shepherds way of telling fine weather – a red sky at night normally foretold of fine weather next morning
Whilst a red sky in the morning, normally was followed by grey clouds in the skies above. It gave the shepherd time to get his flock onto lower ground and avoid an immediate drenching 🙂
We’re not out of winter yet in the UK, no matter what the met office say, and I’ve known it snow in March, despite it being technically Spring.
Salford 19th December
Taking his position along the rest of the toys,
Our hero in red, keeps his eye on the rest of his chums
Year on year , he stands on guard
Sometimes, walking back and forth, when he ventures
Out of his box.
Liked by his pals in the house,
Days are brightened by his colourful persona
In winter, he likes walking round, as
Excited little fellows see what the jolly fellow in
Red has brought them
Salford 3rd December
A response to the daily challenge at Daily word prompt
Conquering the blue
Each one towering over the other to get to the clouds
Dynamic in their structure
As their red branches and green fronds
Rise high up in the sky

The squirrels are a scurrying
amongst the fallen leaves
searching out the conkers
hiding in the trees eaves
Carpet, multi coloured
paints a walker a scene
an autumnal view, that carries a few
colours, of red, gold, brown, green
And as bird watcher goes a twitching,
the animals go have some lunch
As the watcher goes round, he cant help but make a sound
as the leaves underneath him go crunch
But lets give our thanks to the Autumn,
who’s colours are warm and so bright,
as Winter arrives, the frost and snow thrives
turning the leaves on th’floor white!
Various colours come together
In union to
Bring a smile to peoples faces
Rainbows of bright
And brilliant shades come together
Note how the primaries of red, blue and yellow merge and
Transform into the secondaries of Orange, Green and Purple

Red poppies are flowing down the top of the earth shard of IWM North
Each poppy was created to remember those who fell in the war to end all wars
Memorial to the host of soldiers who went to the front
Expecting to be home by Christmas
Men not only from the home nations,
But the commonwealth and allies from Europe too
Regiments who met and fought on a field in flanders
As part of the first world war centenary, this artwork is a
Noted reminder, of those who went away to fight and
Came to rest in a foreign field
Each one remembered in the symbol of the poppy
