First of all, I apologise for posting this a lot later than I said I would.
Right, now that’s over with….
Life
The throbbing tide of the deep blue-green sea;The dusky shade of the damp forest floor;The great snow-capped Alpine mountains that boreInto the sky, rising high above me.
Humour
Be it a quick chuckleOr a belly-shaking raucous,A throaty cackle or grunt,Humor is everywhere.
Inspiration (or lack of it)
Ah, inspiration,That indecisive muse of poets and writers,Who comes and goes, sings then quiets,Irregular, and always just out of sight.
Damned if you do, damned if you don’t.
I am at crossroads.I don’t know how to decideBetween left and right.Don’t know if I want to.
Internet
When it works, it is brilliant.
Information, once reserved to the rich, is easily accessible
Through a well-thought out keyword or phrase,
Fatigue
My eyelids are anvils,My arms damp robesDrooping beside my torso,Not much more than dead weights.
Nature’s beauty you may not have, but you are you.
Howling wind, thrashing waves,Stinging sand, biting cold,Sea confronts liquid goldAnd hollows out mount’n caves.
Madness
Figures lurking in the dark, cackling,Insects crawling up your legs,Lights flashing behind your eyes,Sweat pouring from your pores.
Cats
Soft fur, black, white or ginger,Tortoiseshell, Calico, unicolor or tabby,Long and drooping like weeping willow,Or short and smooth as velvet.
