Collecting willow branches for Sunday's photo shoot:

By the riverbank,
Willow in hand, like Dido –
''Upon wild sea bank."

#17thOctober #haiku365 #Dido

Alluding to Lorenzo's speech in Act 5 of Merchant of Venice..

One of those mythical "Days Off".

A day of resting ...
... but for the shopping, cooking, ...
... and the washing up ...

Stamford College Open Evening for Dexter;

The fifteen year old
Boy begins considering
Possible next steps...

Sunset over nearby Maxey...

A slight detour to
Stop and gaze in awe at this
Majestic sunset..

I keep reading about the coming tidal wave of spine damage caused by modern technology, so thought I'd get proactive. Also, I like reading in bed ...

These glasses ain't smart
But there's no crick in my neck
When I use my phone

Periscope glasses, for reading with a straight neck ...

It's a lovely garden you have there. Therapeutic, I take it?

05.10

And still some days feel like Summer..

A sunlit corner.
Objects in still life, need an
Artists skillfull touch.

#17thOctober #haiku365

This reminded me of the Art room at school, where objects such as these were in abundance, used by students to practice their still life drawing skills...

With that off my chest,
Here's some lovely marigolds,
Bright in autumn's morn'.

Marigolds brighten the day in the garden at work.

I wore this to our local recently, most were empathetic but one guy got real mad, said he was going to tell me why. I'm still waiting to sit down and question..

Be it the small boats -
Attacks on minorities;
Fuck you, Fascist Scum!

On The Celebrity Traitors;

Late to the party,
But quickly drawn into this
Sharp duplicity.

Not quite like a scene from The Birds, my morning commute was full of watchful magpies, on telegraph wires, on the wing, and on the ground, picking roadkill clean ...

3/10

A magpie morning
I raised my hand in greeting
Hoping for some joy

Although I saw about five magpies on the trip, I couldn't take my own photo ...

Went out for second driving lesson, down to Glasbury and back, did really well: considering I was talking in his ear constantly, he didn't lose his temper!

Starters are ready
They're simply to fill a hole
While the oven heats

Research for a calendar shoot next Sunday..

In secret places,
Roof bosses and chancel screens –
There hides the Green Man.

An early start at work, feeling quite productive so far. Happy October! (Pinch! Punch!!)

Life is upside down
Before morning's first caffeine
Gently turns it round.

Happy fourth birthday
