Winter Sea Spray

Winter sun
Shimmers on
Lacy froth
As tumbling pebbles
Spit from turquoise
Tumultuous sea spray

Opulent orange berries

Opulent orange,
Candlelit
Tangerine
Globes.
Heart warming
Winter woes!
Glistening
Globules,
Singing icicles.
Thawed,
Rosy noses!

Nature’s picnic

Ladies lace
Languishly spinning,
Dainty cotton patterns,
Crafted by
Nimble, fragile fingers.
They’re stitching a story
About chivalrous
Gentlemen
Wearing woven cloaks;
An eager entourage,
Pursuing the path
To rescue
Swooning sisters
From sun-drenched fields.
Gaily gathered, relaxing,
Picnic baskets laden,
Blankets strewn with
Well worn,
Beautifully bound,
Copies of
Austen and Bronte,
Finely fluted finger
Pastries
And Wild, ripe
Strawberries.
As Midsummer eve
Draws in
The picnic party,
Pepper their petticotes,
And comb their hair.
Entangled with
Charming gentlemen,
They leave the
Ladies lace
To nature’s picnic,
Bunnies, blue-tits
And accumulating
butterflies.

Simply seeds

Simple seeds,
Starlights
Adorning banks
And fields,
Guiding us
Along our path
Like celestial
Balls of
Concentric
Energy,
Spiralling
To infinity.
These stellar
Fertility angels
Serenely
Settle
In a new
Wilderness.

Chameleon visions

Visions of the lake,
Forever changing,
A Chameleon,
Cerulean blue,
Turquoise,
Burnt umber
With sparkling eyes.

Menacingly shifting,
Willows shiver,
West winds cry.

Moody shapeshifting,
Undercurrents stir,
Spinning and billowing
Like skirts trapped
In tangled weeds.

In shallow beds,
Shingle smashes
Against twisted
Roots.

Herons skim
Across mesmerising waves.

A-Z writing challenge ‘Z’ Zephyr

When zephyrs float by
Like fine cotton blouses,
it’s going to be a good day!
Gentle breezes massaging
The face, ruffling hair.

Zephyrs magically scribble
Spirited messages.
Aeromancy: fanciful
Horses can  bring power,
Seraphins, protection
From sentinels.
Zephyrs blow
Away nightmares
Bringing calm
And happiness.

A-Z writing challenge, letter P, Planting for the future

Planting footsteps,
Trailing,
Pushing through the
Persistant breeze,
Upwards finally
Reaching a safe place
Where hunger is
Satisfied with
Future positive dreams.
