The cherry blossom
Filled the tree
A brief spectacle
Of perfect beauty
Until the petals fell
Like pink snowflakes
And in the breeze
Danced like confetti
Outside the church
On our wedding day

THE CHERRY BLOSSOM

THE STORM RAGED
The storm raged
Thunder roared
And lightning flashed
As rain fell unrestrained
From leaden skies
Like liquid knives
Dropping into the sodden land
Night came early
Beneath the slate grey
Until a tear in the fabric
Of the unremitting deluge
A perfect patch of blue
Showing through the heavy sky
Brought tranquillity
With a glimpse of heaven
Through the darkness
A beam of heavens light
Shone down upon the land
A beacon from above
To let us know
We are not forsaken

THERE IS A MOTH IN THE BATHROOM
There is a moth in the bathroom
Drawn towards the light
My wife was in the shower
And it gave her a bit of a fright
I don’t understand why
If they are attracted to the light
They don’t just appear
When the sun is shining bright
THIS TALK OF CULLING BADGERS
This talk of culling badgers
Is completely unsound
If we keep discussing it
We’ll drive them underground

THE HEDGEHOG CULL
The campaigners have won
The Hedgehog cull won’t be
done
They argued it shouldn’t go
ahead
It was just wrong they said
Saying they were un
putdown-able
I think they are just un
pickup-able
