Weekday
Woven tween Tuesday and Thursday
Woden’s Day – named after a saxon god
and a sign – when you wake up
weekend is on its way

11th May 2020
I wrote this in response to the Write Clubs “Home/Alert” Prompt and thought i’d share with my fellow wordpressers – enjoy
The news from Network Rail rang out
“To make people aware
In the event of an alert
Three sharp blasts
Will be heard from the
Station Masters whistle”
The day carried on
As rushing commuters
Grabbed vital space
Like sardines in tins
Without tomato sauce
But then out of the air
The people were aware
Of a shrill high tone
Three sharp blasts
To chill to the bone
All engines stopped
At signals propped
By station master – No glee
That signal you see ?
He was brewing up tea!

Battery operated radio ?
if you have one of these – expect interruptions
right about now there’s a small feathered friend
doing the fandango up and down on the receiver of the signal
outside and if you
notice a crackle or two – its down to that.
Analogue radio seems to pick up the dancing
Waltzing up and down the aerial
if you listen very carefully – you’ll hear the birds
reacting wildly – so
expect to hear a cheep or two through your headphones

Sat by the platform
it waits for the sign as
gentlemen and ladies alike
now make their way to their furnished cabins
a wonderful journey to places wonderful
lakes mountains and streams – but they have to wait for the flag

When the pea begins to rattle, the noise
Hits the high notes
It’s time for the action to begin, a
Signal from the official
Time to get underway
Let’s get moving
Excitement – building
