Cross Dressing

The dog ran towards me

Barking ferociously

The lady said

You have obviously spooked him

Then she called him Chloe

And I thought, obviously

Who’s spiking who here then

Choosing

The young Japanese woman walks by

This was the road, now it isn’t

Please drive carefully, especially

Beware of the weeping willow

One of them had a camera

And a shoulder bag saying Mom

The other more of a hiker’s rucksack

To go with her forward’s gait

The 257 bus arrived

Just as I reached Bamford station

If I had have waited for all of that time

Would any of it have been wasted

Today, And Maybe Tomorrow

I am not sure

If I should sit

For I am only

Half-way home

But that one tree

On the far horizon

Captivated

My every thought

So I did sit

And gifted

These few words

To all of those

Who are lucky enough

To pass this way

At the very beginning

Of autumn

Available at Amazon

Tasty, and Photographic

I am in

The Yorkshire Bridge Inn

I have ordered

Homemade Steak & Kidney Pie

And a pint of Farmer’s Blonde

By the local Bradfield Brewery

Actually it will be my second

For I was here an hour ago

But they stop serving food

(Perhaps to give the cook a break)

Between three and four

So I had to turn and turn again

I’ve got a long walk back

To the Bamford Quaker House

Where I am staying, already

I am over six thousand steps

And that’s just with the getting here

Let alone that tricky trek home

We are inquisitive

We are inquisitive

The human race

Women more than men

Yes I think so

But there again

In case

You had not noticed

I am a man

So there I was

On the footpath

Along the bank

Of Ladybower reservoir

And to my knowledge

But please do correct me

There is no Lord Bower

Other than my old friend John

Who died

Quite possibly of alcohol poisoning

With that I say goodbye

And welcome to my mother
