the stone wall is high
there’s a forest beyond
and there’s a doorway
almost always closed
but this time it is open
shall we go in… yes?
we must be careful
is there anyone around?
but no, there’s no-one
the double-doors clang
we’re trapped…

Water, Beautiful Water
shall we go?
we have wooden boats
five of us
we will row
gently but swiftly
here we go;
it’s so clear
and mountains stare up
air breathes deep
it’s lovely
row, row, row again
wonderful
~ such a shame we only have an hour ~

I was never good at numbers, unfortunately. However, I have written so many things. When I was little I would write poems and small stories, and then in high school I went up to an essay each week. I am happy with all writing things – either pen or pencil with paper, and even better on my laptop now… but numbers? Really not good – apart from playing Scrabble, of course.
a pen or pencil
is mightier than a number:
wouldn’t you say, eh?
right, okay
strike it out, that’s it;
now, try it again
a pen or pencil
is mightier than a sword:
better isn’t it?

Di’s Pensitivity101 – Monday’s Three Things Challenge: WRITTEN, PAPER, ESSAY
she’s moving again
how many times, she’s lost count
where will she go next?
the custom manager
threw the rest of her things out
‘good riddance,’ he shouted
her method is the same
she will find another place
it’s a tradition
a man’s there.

she sits staring out
rain pitter-patters down, cold and grey
dismal, dank and damp
but inside she’s warm
reading a tatty old book
and what’s wrong with that?
the candle flickers
but there’s no ghosts here now
just peace and happiness
no misery here!
