Ginger Cat at Play
Ginger cat at play,
Whirling on the concrete,
As the eve gives way,
To night on the street.
Blissfully unaware,
The mere humans
Swerve and swear,
As they astride it with their load.
“Coming through!”
With a bundle to be stowed,
As stocks renew.
Ah, but do I detect?
A glimmer of a grin?
Or some glee do we suspect?
The cat will win.
For any day,
A moment of play,
Gets us in.

Ah! Coffee!
Ah! Coffee!
Steaming, creaming
Foaming
Brew
Delivered
For me
And you
By deft baristas
And amateurs
Too.
Coffee makes
A morning start
A widening eye
And zinging heart
A reviver after
A post-noon doze
Ah, the aroma
To the nose!
Hazelnut
Vanilla
Cinnamon
Wow!
Do yourself a favour
Get one
Now!

Be ready for #WATWB, coming again soon.
Raspberries Ripe and Ready
Raspberries Ripe and Ready
Ripe and ready
Raspberries
Lingering lusciously
For the picking
Oh, it will be
A delight to free
Them from the bowl
There is no self-control
To be had
Before raspberries
Ripe and ready
Ready… steady…
Why!
They’re gone
Already!

Looking for some good news. Follow the hashtag #WATWB on social media
What Am I But a Post-it Note
On me you find a jot
And scribble a lot.
There’s portrait and landscape
And various forms shape
Images on my page
From folks of all age.
I contain the trivial
And matters of import.
Whatever your sport
You can scribe a report.
I faithfully keep whatever you wrote
For I’m a humble post-it note!

We are the World #WATWB returns soon
Ginger Beer
Ginger beer.
Sweet-sour tang, sliding
Along tongue and teeth.
Refreshing relief
To a parched palate.
