Last Day of October

Just another day for some
For others a cause
Of  celebration
And the start
Of a new year.

October Sunset

Caught unexpectedly
From a quick glimpse;
The true beauty
Of the scene
Reveals itself.

Hydrangea

The unexpected beauty
Of a blue Hydrangea
On a cool October day
Brings its own blessings
And a sense of
Deep gratitude.

Cloud Effects

The beauty of clouds
Can sometimes be
Quite magical.

Vintage Car

Seen in the town;
A vintage car
Which drew
The attention
Of the local crowd!

Fuchsias

Vivid in their colours
Of pink and purple
Hanging delicately
From the bush
They create their
Own exotic image.

Magpie

On the grass
In the field
The magpie
Strutted his stuff!

Freedom

The sight of a soaring Buzzard
Brings a strong sense
Of Freedom and Release;
Of lack of limitation
And the ability
To rise above the mundane.

Butterfly Paradise

On a purple-flowering shrub
Butterflies gather
In their numbers
To suck the nectar
Of the fragrant flowers.

Beautiful Coastline

With rugged cliffs
Of granite
Covered in
Grass and bracken
With the different
Moods of the sea
This is a beautiful coastline.

Eventide

The soft golden glow
Spreads from
The setting sun
Promising a new day.

Temperate Cloud World

There is a part
Of West Cornwall
Which has it's own
Semi-permanent
Temperate Cloud World.
Will ecologists and climatologists
Come to investigate this phenomenon
I wonder?

Autumn Walk

Free from fog
With grey skies
And warm weather
The landscape
Was outstanding.

Sharing Creativity

We meet once a month
At the local library
Each month
Someone takes a topic
Or theme
And we write
And we share
And we laugh
Who could want
More than that?

Sunday 9 October 2011

Nature's Decorations

Dabbled with glistening drops
Shimmering through the fog
Both intricate
And beautiful
Upon the gorse.

Stream of Consciousness

Always moving
Never stopping
The stream of consciousness
Continues onwards.

Friday Feelings

Mottled changing skies
Of grey and blue
Reflect
The ever-shifting
Emotions within me.

Thursday 6 October 2011

Autumnal Weather

Strong winds blow
Echoing round the house
The letter-box flaps
To the tune of the breeze.
Multi-coloured leaves
Fall to the ground
Blown by the gusts.

Tuesday 4 October 2011

Season of the Robin

Suddenly they're
All around
Singing from
Trees and bushes
Impressive in
Their red bibs
And sweet songs.

Monday 3 October 2011

Misty Monday

After the sun
Warmth and
Blue Skies
The mist
Has returned.

Wildlife Drama

All was calm on the land
But in the air
A battle raged
Between a Crow
And a Kestrel
Many mild skirmishes
Took place
Before the Kestrel
Finally admitted defeat
And the Crow retired
Triumphant.

Yellow Drops of Sunshine

Unexpectedly
As Autumn passes
Yellow flowers
Make brief
Appearance
To greet
The Sunshine.
