Haikus
Cones
Soldiers stand erect. Red and white uniforms guard British motorways. Meat “Meat is bad for you,” said the young vegan, lighting up a cigarette. Smoke Rings Caring parent feeds. Babe takes in food. Pretty smoke rings for dessert The Fox The fox escapes hounds only to kill a chicken the following day. LCFC Football season done. Optimistic Leicester fans. Promotion next year. Reality Check Talking to God is like writing to Santa but without the presents. |
Pay Rise
Three-fold pay rise. Two- faced politicians, One- way thought. Me , me, me. MP's MP's kissing babies. Crosses on ballot papers. Voting time again. Wheeler Dealer He buys and sells all, but says no to Satan 'cause his soul is nailed down. A Good Book A good book, unlike a vintage wine is consumed over and over. Colours Canvas sky. Rainbow. Sunset, painted by nature. Hidden by rain clouds. |
Cest La Vie
Like a winter’s night Death often arrives too soon. And lasts far too long. Critics Blow my own trumpet? No. But when the baton’s out the orchestra plays. Writer's Block Blank sheet. Empty head. Ideas not forthcoming. Wastepaper bin full Tunnel Vision A missed countryside. Tunnel-vision motorists, Race to smoke city English Weather April showers. Wet. Looking forward to summer. Sun. Bikini girls. Love. |
