When there’s a bee in your beer
please remove it;
I know you’ll be left with an ‘r’,
but I think that is better by far.
If there’s a bee in your ear,
and it’s not that easy to hear;
well, that’s a different matter altogether.

You know what I’m going to write,
even before I’ve writ it;
you’ve seen it all,
you know the path
my words will always take –
because I use predictable text,
and you know what comes next,
as originality I forsake.
I picked up a pretty feather
from the place where it had flown;
I planted in the garden;
I watered it, I fed it,
but, still, it hasn’t grown.
I was hoping for a magpie,
an eagle, or a crow
but, will my feather sprout at all
is a thing I do not know.
Too busy?
Too busy putting my writing into books
to write the stuff that will fill future books?
Yes, it does distract the mind from creating new poems or prose
when sorting out older pieces for inclusion
leads to a storybook illusion
that I can multitask across the universe,
and beatle about, whilst employing
my mind
in the writing of new arts of work.
Anyway, one book released to the unknowing world, and the follow up in hand,
I am doing something with some of the thousands of poems and pieces
that I have cobbled together
over the years.
‘Even Wonkier Words’ is progressing, and ‘Wonky Words’ is showing well in the places it has travelled to.
So, I might not be composing, or composting, as much, but it’s about time I did something with my words. And so I am.
See you on the flip side – unless anything amuses my muse before hand.

Just to let you know that ‘Wonky Words’ is now available on Kindle and as a paperback from Amazon.
My latest (mainly poetry) poetry book, is raising funds for @TheSanctuaryAngels who provide Angel grants to sanctuaries, animal shelters (and the like) all around the world.
Almost 90 pieces of hand-crafted work are within. Some of my photographs, and a few of my drawings accompanying the words – but don’t let my artwork put you off.
Please check it out at Amazon, download a free sample, write me a letter of complaint, go for a walk, be your own best friend, hug a toy hippo (real ones are a bit large for hugging).
