Sunshine

The joy of sunshine
After so much
Misty weather!

The Last Rose of Summer

Soft and pink
With petals folded
In complex shapes
The rose is
Complemented
By the green leaves.

Autumn Colours

As the seasons
Rotate gently
Once more,
Autumn brings
Rich, wonderful
Colours.

Clever Art

When I first looked
Round the corner
I was completely
Deceived. I thought
That someone had
Parked their bike.

Tropical Flower

Exotic in its form
And colour
The white
And yellow
Complement
Each other.

Grey Wagtail

Whilst at Eden
A very tame
Grey Wagtail
Came to
See me.

Rainyday Blues

The mist is thick

The rain is falling
Alas no walking today!

Energising Eden

The wonders of nature
So beautifully demonstrated
In the various biomes;
Different ecologies
Of our
Wonderful planet.

Magical Mevagissey

A day spent with
Friends
In a beautiful
Location,
In
Magical Mevigissey

Busyness

Busy week
Not much time
To create or write
Trying to find
The gap
Between
Times of
Exploration
And change.

Autumn Roses

Despite the wind
And Rain that we
Have experienced
Beauty is still
All around!

Full Moon Rising

Above the dark fields and
Eclipsing house lights
The silvery glow appears
Of the Full Moon Rising

Evening Visitor

Drawn to the
Light from my
Window,
A moth
Came calling.

Gardening

After days of mist
And rain
The sun shone
So I could do
Some gardening
In the warmth
Of an autumn
Afternoon.

Raindyday Fuchsias

Amongst the grey
Of the mist
And drop
Bespattered
The white fuchsia
Is flowering.

Gossamer Threads

Gossamer threads
Strung with raindrops
Catches the eye
But makes a less
Efficient
Trap.

Homecoming

The grey sea
And the sight of
St Michaels Mount
Welcome me home
From my day away.

Mixed Blessings

A day of  rain and sunshine
Of time to catch up
On some work
And maybe later
The chance to relax
And for enjoyment.

Summer Evening

Golden light dims
As the sun
Sinks behind
The trees.

NHS Debate

Yesterday evening I attended a public meeting,
by Andrew George our local MP, in Penzance about the changes that the government are proposing on the NHS. The discussion was very interesting and further reinforced my views that there were several quite fundamental flaws in the plans. At the end of the meeting when Andrew George asked who would be in favour of the the plans, there was only one person who put up his hand and one abstention while the overwhelming majority of people were totally against what the government is planning. This is to be debated in the House of Commons on Tuesday and Wednesday next week and it looks as if the government will have a lot of opposition to deal with. I certainly hope that the bill gets defeated. Hands off our NHS!
