Autumn morning
through the lens
God paints his gift
with marker pens!

Sun-cut silhouettes
Malvern stands
proud on patchwork land,
clouds graze sheep-like
across clear summer skies
sun-cut silhouettes
parade across harvest field.

Misty morn
Morning mist
Shroud soft blanket
muffled song…

Scruffy
The reason a dog has so many friends is that he wags his tail instead of his tongue.

Pristine
A new day begins, a blank card on which we write our story. Pristine and perfect, there are no flaws or mistakes… yet!

Omaha
Serried ranks stand tall,
proud, pristine,
upright in death as they were in life.
Pay witness to battlefield,
Omaha, tranquil beach on foreign soil.
Where young lives were spent
Profligate pawns in a world war game.

Jewels
Twisted, broken,
Bejewelled leaf shimmers
in post-storm sunshine.

Dash
A.N. Other
1958 – To Date
Time marches on, relentlessly ticking seconds off our lives. We’re born bringing nothing but our spirit into this world. When our allotted time is over, we take that spirit and our memories with us…
To measure our worth it’s not the dates that count; it’s our dash between these dates; the achievements and memories that we share with those around. That time is ours and must be spent; let’s try to spend it wisely!

Soaring
The gull cries its goodnight wishes then banks and surfs the waves. The sun dips into the horizon and, quenched by the sea, its warmth diminishes and dies. Steely grey, the sea casts an ozone chill into the still night air.

Clee sunrise
Flamingo sunrise with pigeon clouds washes over a serene and tranquil Clee. Muffled morning silence broken by a distant pheasant call.
