Rolled up sleeves
Stroked by the breeze
Roses so sweet.
Roses So Sweet

Out in the Rain
Out in the rain
Mint leaves in my hand –
A frog watches on.
Milo
Milo was a cat
Who got so very fat
That the vet would say
“Only one meal a day”
Which is why he ate my hat.
When Milo lost some weight
He slipped out through the gate
But I had a hunch
He’d be back by lunch
To steal it from my plate.
Listening Alone
Listening alone
except for a spider –
Late night radio.
My Favourite Bird
My favourite bird’s the robin,
For all the joy he brings,
When other birds are silent,
In winter robin sings.
