Washday Blues
My clothes are dirty.
Have nothing to wear today.
Better do laundry.
Way Back Then
A short story in Haiku style
My first memory.
Jan C. Smuts Home for Children
In Burnham-on-Sea.
Breakfast with some kids.
Walking to the beach lighthouse.
Breathing damp sea air.
Big people took me
to live with as family.
I had siblings now.
We had dogs and cats
And we had a garden too.
I was happy there.
Then I had an urge
The wide world called me to leave
Look where it brought me.
I found new friendships
Bloggers using words galore.
Thank you one and all.

Who put Unicorns
Atop Bristol’s Council House?
Nobody is sure.

my doctor puts it down to,
Xanthophobia.

Oak-grown Mistletoe
Sickles in hand to cut it;
Druid priests at work.
The Lodger
Mr. McCafferty
Has a mind of his own.
But cats are like that!
Alfred’s Story-Haiku in 3 Verses
An apology. I think you have to be from Bristol to understand this posting well. If you are not from Bristol I hope you enjoy the words anyway.
Is Alfred still there?
Inside a glass display case
at the museum.
Who is Alfred then?
A Silverback Gorilla
Died at Bristol Zoo.
Of fright in his cage.
It happened in World War II,
During an air-raid.
A Bristol daughter – J.K. Rowling
