ENTERTAIN SILENCE
S-ometimes we need peace.
I-nside our crowded world
L-eave noise outside
E-mbrace the space within
N-egate the negative
C-hannel the positive
E-ntertain silence.

Glory at this beauty made
Walk softly fear of fairies wake
A moment in their footsteps take
Silence in this lichen land
In wonderment of nature stand .
Lost a moment’s solitude
Scent an air of life imbued
A canopy of rustic shade
Glory at this beauty made.
A thousand years of history
Within a single tree
Let’s marvel at its chemistry
Walk on, let it be.
Lough O’ Flynn
Recent visits to our local lake. County Roscommon
A Royal corgi
A Royal corgi
With the greatest respect to a special Lady.
Her corgis have lost a friend
At her side so loyal
It did not matter to them
That She was a Regal Royal.
I’m sure they’ll miss her terribly
While awaiting her appearance
Shedding now a silent tear
Their grief so incoherent.
We see a hearse move slowly
Through silent solemn streets
I’m sure they’ll also mourn her
As at rest She lies in peace.

Out and about in Loughglinn
Haiku
Walking barefoot ( Haiku )
walking through tilled fields
Barefoot now my soul yields
Cleansed by a cold clay
Jpoet7 ( wordverse.me )
Drenched in dappled sunlight
Silence now-sirens stilled
Silence now-sirens stilled
Now once more
those battle cries
Terror tremors
Fill the skies.
Scattered remnants
Lunchtime treats
Upturned tables
Empty seats.
Children scream
They know not why
Their games played out
No sad goodbye.

A cold new world
A cold new world
Where are the screams now
Behind computer screens
Delivered by an internet
Cowardly and obscene.
In a world of nobodies
No humans just androids
Drawn into an argument
Sucked into a void.
Strangled by a stranger
Wrecking self esteem
I doubt they ever worry
If they never hear your scream.

When vegetables are all we grow
When vegetables are all we grow.
Harriet Holstein hurried-worried.
Having heard casual conversations-vegetarians-vegans-
voicing vegetable varieties- problems presented by populated pollutants
who should for the sake of future generations
be removed from the fields
to grow lentils-beans and other such yields.
Greta goat giggled-Peter pig pondered.
What a peculiar world it would be,
no animal to see.
Where would they all go-
into a zoo-
put on a show-
where will it all end-
whose to know-
when vegetables are all we grow.
