tiny goblins running round
some in mothers dressing gown
witch cackle delight
was there such a night
in this hallowed little town.
if i had another wish
i would want back my pet fish
for my uncle came to town
and in mothers dressing gown
served him on her fav'rite dish.
The night feels surreal,
in flight in my dressing gown
Swooping through backyards,
I reach to save them from loss,
but find myself falling down.
Written for the contest 'Tanka me a Dream"

I spied a stranger when I went to town,
Sipping champagne whilst in his dressing gown.
He looked at me, gave a smile,
I gave one back it's true.
Thank you for the drink he said,
I've just charged this one to you.
Time, time, time knocks.
Time, time, time – stops all voices.
Time is against me, and you, –
It runs forward, and loves no one.
«Time cures us». – Who is it? The doctor?
Or, in a white dressing gown, the executioner?
jalapeno peppers have put me down
I eat them in my dressing gown
cannot give them up, I like things tart
bit of a burn they give to my heart
my lala land calls me back to bed
way for me not to be overfed
when I am asleep, I need no food
a nap puts me in a kinder mood
At twenty past I'm home at last,
the brass plate spells my name;
come inside!
familiar and gratifying,
slippers by my bed still lying,
dressing gown and cap are crying,
here abide!
The sheets are turned and ready.
I leave the night and take a final bow,
grateful for the here and now.
At twenty past I'm home at last,

grateful for the here and now.
I love the way she smells after a shower
so fragrant fresh and clean
and how she sits there
so beautiful
in her dressing gown
brushing her long wet hair
until it dry's and gleams.
Her sweet perfume fills the room
and sets my heart on fire
heightening my senses
and filling me with desire.

I woke in the night
out for a pee
How tedious.
It was half-past two.
Then I remembered.
On with slippers
and dressing gown.
Outside
adjusting my vision
away from the moon –
orange pink smudges
to west and north,
a wavy whitish line
and above the horizon
a glow of light.
The aurora.
A reward.
A ticket
from my ageing bladder!
Exactly the right colour,
The perfect amount of milk,
One of Mum`s specials as
We gathered round the table
In the kitchen and put
The pictures together,
As red lights turned and
The friendly doctor asked
What to do with
The dressing gown.
Well it was rather a nice one
Said Mum.
Then it all went quiet.
Too late to go to bed.
Too early to get up.
I
I had an idea
Far to the back of my mind
It wasn’t clear
A glint not a shine
I had a thought
Couldn’t pin it down
I had a dream
In my dressing gown
I had a whim
Grabbed at thin air
I can’t swim
Throw me a chair
I hunted gold
Hacked with my pick
I caught a cold
Felt quite sick
I toil all day
Hoping for a break
I earn my pay
For heaven’s sake!

I barely fit in my dressing gown
sucking in my gut all over town
I am more than a fleck of old
was that a roach that left my fold?
I look in the mirror with a sigh
fat jowls smiling, no idea why
I am more than a fleck of old
was that a roach that left my fold?
is this my legacy, my fate?
Obviously, I am aged and overweight
I am more than a fleck of old
was that a roach that left my fold?
Alimony,
Palimony,
Dogimony too
Not macaroni,
With acrimony,
Pay me or I'll sue
Send a money heap
So I will keep
The dog that leaped
Before the heat
Of who did cheat
Brought us defeat.
I'll sit around
In my dressing gown
His soft fur brown
When I feel down
He’ll lick to drown
My face's frown
To you who’s horny
This may seem corny
If you’re feeling thorny,
From a sexual tourney
End your scorny
You’re not so brawny!
I used to shop until I dropped.
Now I have stopped.
I do not need anything,
It's all a lot of rot.
The shops that are still open
As many of them have gone
Sell such a lot of rubbish
I would be ashamed to put it on.
My old frame needs brightening up
With some stylish clothes
Everything is shoddy
Even underwear and hose
I'll keep wearing my best nightie
And my cosy dressing gown.
With bunny slippers on my feet
I have no wish to shop in Town.
a dog and a frog
who stood on a spoon
and went round the town
in their dressing gown
said the dog to the frog
oh lets spoon to the moon
so they jumped up and down
and the spoon left the ground
look look oh look at the moon
how truly exciting said the dog
spoon spoon we went on a spoon
would you believe it said the frog
to the moon to the moon
travelled the dog and the frog
yes they went on a spoon
and thus ends this short epilogue
You wear moonlight like a dressing gown,
And every eye in the house is on you.
You’re in the spotlight, center stage,
But it’s theater enough to watch you sleep.
Take your comfort for as long as you please.
I’m never in a rush to hurry the play.
I’ve got a basket full of breakfast fruit,
And steel-cut oats just as wholesome
As my noblest intentions.
When you waken in the morning
You’ll be able then to take your fill.
Reveille is zero past whenever.
__
the tropical shore
waits birth of brand new morning…
clouds pace heaven’s door
__
one small speck of sun
rises to the occasion…
darkness sleeps soundly
__
glory in the dawn…
skies are feathered brightly with
bird of paradise
__
silhouetted palms
wave windblown fronds in alarm…
sun singes the bay
__
the early morning
wears a lavender halo…
blue mist dressing gown

Oh so nice to see you at this hour
Going bed? No, a dressing gown
is my evening attire.
what's mine is yours to share
Of course it's not too much.
How much was your taxi fare?
I may be a pensioner little money to spend
But what's a missed month’s rent
to help a friend?
I won't be offended if you have to leave
I'm sure you have other friends
that you must see
They will be delighted to see you at this hour
Even if they are dressed
in their evening attire
