Air Con

He pointed throught the sunlight
From the kerb edge,
Fiddling with his fingers,
Looking rather silly
It has to be said.
"Turn your air conditioning on"
He bawled.
So slowly
I wound my window down.

Tears

I wipe a teardrop from my eye,
Another drops on the kerb,
I have a hole in my aching heart,
It's where you used to be,
Should it hurt as much as this?
You say you'll change, but you never do,
I've just had enough, but can't let you go.

                                      put on your trousers
                                         i do not like snails in bed
                                             they are kerb-crawlers

The Distracted Walking Law

Listen to poem:
No walking while distracted - that's the law
Don't leave the kerb and step under a bus
Don't oggle that hulk, nor admire that chick
Keep all eyes on the road
No rocking along to music box
No whistling or humming allowed
No eating a burger while strolling
No admiring the view or star gazing
No distracting thoughts either
Why Oh Why is it chicken now, 
   to cross the road!

Autumn Scene

AUTUMN  SCENE


A deserted outdoor café  -
Empty tables piled in corner,
Sun-umbrella, collapsed in desultory
Flapping, and folded wetly to itself.


Concrete planter box with pansies -
Tired, wilted, droopy, washed out;  
Discarded ice-cream wrappers  -
A watery white smudge on the kerb.


Bare wet sidewalk reflecting her legs,
Raindrops spitting onto her glasses,
A woman hurrying with her umbrella,
Stepping quickly round the puddles.

Love Above

LOVE ABOVE

I hear him on the roof above,
A noisy, cooing, little dove,
Seeks a mate, that bloody song,
From dawn to dusk he carries on.

Got a plan to stop his singing, 
Involves his neck, I will be wringing, 
One last chance to kerb his ways, 
Let me resume my peaceful days. 

Laid my trap, can't see it through, 
You won't believe but now there's two! 
His song is changed to love and joy, 
Now proud of him, go on my boy!!!

Online Dating

Are you just a picture on a website
No, you’re a person and you're real 
I’m sat here looking for a soul mate 
Just scrolling past women on a screen
Hoping a million little pixels
Could be the woman of my dreams
My heart is so uneasy 
My nerves are all on edge 
Looking for a loved one
Like a tele or a fridge
Is kerb appeal all that counts 
Or what an algorithm says   
No, I'm looking for the lady
Who will make my life complete.
