SUMMER DAYS
Watch a swallow swoop 
and pass  above an old meadow,
lush with grass. Speckled starlings 
sing with delight over flying ants
in nuptial flight. Buckthorn in a dense
hedge screen. Ceanothus ,shaded green
Jasmine,Honeysuckle,Bittersweet
scents to mingle in summer heat
Clouds of teasels spiral tall 
'midst dancing grasses against a wall 
wandering wasps picnicing un-checked
onto  perfumed petals,paperwhite
first intoxicate,then delight,
high above Cauliflower clouds,nimbus
topped weep a shower of warm tear-drops.
PASTURES GONE
buttercup yellow
kissing cowslips
dandelion,poppy and daisy,
corn marigold
cow parsley and clover,
a willow that weeps
and meadow-sweet,
deep in a forgotten pasture.

Like a Rose, Getting Ready To Consign

Gentle as you are, you come uninvited but oh so quietly 
as your floral scents permeate you arrive bipinnately 
Invigorating every tree and garden full of parsley 
with evening's refresh breezing in succinctly

With futuristic birth that winter could not borrow    
you draw us in then gift us with tomorrow  
Sprigs of blooming life grow inside your yarrows 
insuring us with every shade of rainbow   
 
Calendar favored you are the in between season
ear marked for a very good reason 
renewed and refreshed you are a beacon 
without treason 

Gentle as you are Spring, you arrive just in time     
like a rose, getting ready to consign.

Premium Member Bubble 'N Squeak

Is there anything finer than mashed potatoes
Mixed with cabbage, a mountain of joy
Scrumptious with globs of bad-for-you butter
And sprinkled with parsley, oh boy!

Constantly dream bout this scrumptious delight
Sure sends me to the moon with glee
Don't need no ham or carrot and pea medley
Just blobs of butter if you please

Don't want none of that Beef Wellington stuff
That fine old English tradition
With boiled potatoes oh how uninspiring
Gonna pass it with your permission

Good old “bubble 'n squeak” is what they call it
Can't think of another dish finer
Just a simple old guy with a simple old taste
A down to earth kind of a diner

So serving me that stuff for brekkie, or din-din
Guaranties my friendship for life
With enormous globs of bad-for-you butter
Just a fork, no need for a knife!

Premium Member Pasta: a Fork of Heaven

PASTA: A FORK OF HEAVEN

In a pot of bubbling boiling water,
I drop hard nine inches long bundle of farfelles..

Minutes passed,between my fingertips, 
I pressed one strand, al- dente! 

In a  platter glittering white, 
I form a fist of fresh-cooked pasta noodles,

pouring a hot scoop of white 
creamy silky sauce made from:

parmesan and pecorino
melted, blended in a saucepan,

flavored more with a savory stock, 
tossed of shallots, saffron and lean meat.

The sauce must be rich enough 
coating all the threads of farfelles...

Garnishing it with grated cheese,
teaspoonful crunchy diced bacon,

a pinch of chopped flat leaf parsley... 
Voila! Who could refuse this tasty fork of heaven?

Premium Member Small Town Fantasies

It makes a heart glad to know 
there are still, small country towns 
like Woodford, where homes 
with large old trees, 
sit scattered between small shops
and local businesses
 
To think the spirit of Elvis exists 
in a greengrocers’, called, “Grapelands.”
‘Elvis Parsley’ swivelling his hips
amongst the carrots and parsnips
imitating “Blue Suede Shoes."
I select a punnet of strawberries
as a smile slips out at the absurdity,
of how, some live out their fantasies
“Blue blue “…you can do anything
 
I cross the street to check out 
a “Second-hand” furniture store.
It is closed so I cup my hands
and peer through the window.
A group of old, store mannequins
piques my interest, draped in 50’s fashions
It seems like a time warp, as there
are no opening hours posted on the door.
 
I wonder if the mannequins 
are an eccentric collection,
or, if they were for sale,
which one, I would buy,
The one, with eyes, demurely cast down,
or, the arm-less one, 
looking enviously past her
 
Back on the street, I inhale sun-warmed earth,
as I walk past a garden’s bright picket fence.
A shiny black crow flaps up, startled.
Suddenly I smell, what the scent of home
is like, for someone else.

Chicken Soup

No not the kind you get from a packet oh no not that kind
this one has little bits of chicken in it, with onions you can find 
I start with chicken base and add fresh grated garlic to it 
turmuric, black pepper, parsley, and basil just a bit 
Then I let it simmer for an hour while the vegetables steam and swim  
and I sing to it with a wispy voice, that little blessed hymn     
that mama taught me long ago, while making chicken soup; 
Not the kind that you order in from a store next door 
this one comes from the pantry shelf and garden herbs galore 
I start with a clean apron and my hair tied back 
its bright red with white daises, and a strip of black 
Then I stew it and stir it with a large wooden spoon 
then I talk to it, until the hour of noon 
the way my mama taught me, while making chicken soup; 
No not the kind you get from a packet, oh no its never store bought 
its the way my mama showed me, when I was just a tot....

Spring, Early morning

Spring, early morning.


Sitting beneath the half-arch
Of the bayleaf tree,
On the old wooden garden bench -
Early morning, the first full day of Spring.

A cup of warm coffee,
A smoothie bowl of banana,
Avocado and chia seed, topped
With walnuts, golden raisins, goji berries.

Cool, crisp, and hazy—
Soft sunlight breathing
Seasonal new life,
A quiet awakening.

I sit apart from it,
Yet quietly within—
Still, observing, serene,
Flooded with innocent memory.

Jewels of dew on the lawn
And the broad-leafed tulips,
Long-stemmed and short—
Reds, pinks, yellows, whites.

Bright daffodils bow and sway,
Primroses bring gentle colour
To a forgotten corner
Behind a moss-covered standing stone.

Tips of green unfurl
On the red boughs
Of the Japanese maple
And the three hibiscus.

The herb garden—sage,
Savoury, lemon balm, verbena,
Parsley, thyme, oregano, chive—
Waits for eager culinary hands.



Flowering strawberry plants,
Rose-coloured rhubarb stalks,
Fresh mint—
All hinting at summer puddings.

A cockerel in the distance,
Nature’s alarm clock—
Wake up. Wake up.

Hiding in the branches,
A little red-breasted robin sings
His bright, insistent song,
Just to say: I’m here.

A blackbird lands on the fence,
Briefly surveying the ground
For slimy morsels
To catch his beady eye.



Ducks rise from
The dark green canal,
A woodpecker drums a steady beat,
A collared dove softly coos.

Tiny pale mauve butterflies—
Parma violet sweets on wing.
The first shift of bees emerges,
Focused on the day’s work.

And on the window ledge next door—
The neighbour’s cat.
