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”
5th February 2019
“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 š
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

A response to the daily challenge atĀ 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 secondariesĀ of Orange, Green and Purple

The Orb was a lighting experiment – and used Red LEDs to brighten up a Glass Sphere.

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

Cognitive act
of great effort
noting and transferring the idea and vision
carefully to canvas using colourful media
equal care given to the objects around the main subject
not forgetting the sun or the sky
taking attention to each shade of blue transferred
reality is – there’s plenty of them
as they’re placed around the brilliant red shape of the sail
the picture begins to form on the canvas
in the end – its a picture the painter can be proud of
of course, it’s taken considerable time and attention to detail
not forgetting an awful lot of patience.

You were always the one in school
that caused a scene
causing young heads to turn
at your juvenile antics
Wearing the Uniform
the way you wanted
raising an eye
of the deputy head
They called you “Cool”
and your pals all circled
as school rules fell
and school skirts rose
The defiant red haired streak
got you noticed
by the more butch kids
in the school playground
But at the end of the day
the lad that you wanted
never looked back
leaving you – disappointed
