KNOCK-ON
The poor children
The poor children
And their children
And could you
Turn up the heating
As you’re passing?
Goldilocks aka Join The Dots
GOLDILOCKS aka JOIN THE DOTS
Time for a wash, a bath, a shower
Not too cold, not too hot, just right
The temperature in my room
Was not quite to my taste, thank you
Luckily I had them all at my fingertips
The air conditioning, the thermostat
Fresh bread lay before me
But I decided I’d prefer toast
I read and created inspiring verse
And scattered it across the globe
Whilst oil-stricken birds washed ashore
And polar bears swam until they died
Pale Reflection
PALE REFLECTION
Who dares not love the moon?
Only one who fails to appreciate
The fulsome fullness of the sun

“To This Day” Project
A friend sent me this, because she thought “all good poems seem to find their way to your blog eventually”. Hmmm, I’m afraid I should need to be a Methuselah to make that become true. 😛 Anyway, this is one of them that made it. I know it takes 7½ minutes to watch, but it is time well spent, I believe. I can think of several regular readers of “Ben Naga” who will love it.
