When you notice how the Bluejays pick up peanuts for the first time! ✨

Rainbow chaser, Not for gold, Nor leprechaun, But for the light, Bright hope, The running away, Rain at your back, Painted optimism, Upside down smile, A shine in the dark. #blueskyrelay leprechaun

There is a photo of her in a bookshop.It misses out the thoughts. The goals she had at that moment as she stands by stories, her fingers lingering on spines. It is a picture flattened, neglecting the spark. She is a blurred title, an unspoken word lingering on her lips. #vssdaily photo #vss365 goal

I read your poems, Recognize the crush I have, Heart given to verse. #haikufeels crush

The streams rushed laughter, Outpour of glee after rain, The words it has saved. #Haikuchallenge outpour

My admiration, For you small birds in winter, Songs sung amidst snow. #dailyhaikuprompt admiration

As found on this morning’s walk..absolutely no filters or manipulation..this is wonder at the side of the road. ✨

Respect silence before tea. #7syllablesentence respect

Black scratch on sky, Morrigan lament, Earth scar and bluster, She flys on tired wings, The world is a torn book, Victory on loose pages, Lost words gathered, By those still collecting poems. #blueskyrelay morrigan

Your pillow holds your weary self and the day is lost. You are transported to possibilities, worries chasing you and becoming unicorn cats that offer tea in the wrong mug. You live a lifetime and almost find happiness and then the alarm wakes you up. #vssdaily pillow #vss365 transport

The cold wind gnaws bone, Fingers tucked into mittens, Tears falling freely. #haikufeels gnaw

The road unravels, Disappears over the hills, A grey scarf winding. #dailyhaikuprompt road

Saved more roses from the snow. ✨

Cat objects to a closed door. #7syllablesentence object

Tangle hair, Moss and Lily, Water born, Charm and song, She is lost to green, Reflections of story, Nixie and maid, A thin wish, Born from wandering. #blueskyrelay nixie

My favourite portal. ✨

She gave up the science, questioning the magic. She hoarded words until she became rich in stories. Occasionally she would benevolently hand out poems, tipping words into an outstretched mind. Myths that grew in her thoughts like moss, logic packed away and forgotten. #vssdaily rich #vss365 science

Editing my life, Getting rid of the bad things, Changing the ending. #haikufeels edit

The flowers are gone, Bees no longer in nectar, Winter is silence. #haikuchallenge nectar

Black paper night time, Winter moon shining, Bright icicle stars. #dailyhaikuprompt winter moon

Power outage…just me apparently..I must be special.

Things left behind. ✨

What patience looks like..I also already have suet and seeds out so I’m a novelty not a necessity. ✨

Just been out training this seasons Chickadees. I’d forgotten how goofily happy this makes me. ✨

Collect feathers..hope to fly. #7syllablesentence collect

Given up for love, Merrow no more in fin, She walks a razor edge, Haunts the tide line, Her song silent, Heart given to wander, Mermaid in story, Salt spray tears, Ocean longing, Her toes sunk in sand. #blueskyrelay merrow

As found. ✨

We turn the faucet out of habit. Count the bottles of water in case we forget the number. We are settled into problems, pulling them under our chins, tucked in tight. We make do & mend, the hours marked & vanquished. Dreams welcomed where we can finally escape & fly. #vssdaily faucet #vss365 number

Our well has a hole, Dear lizza, dear lizza, dear, Now taunted by rain. #haikufeels well

Nature is my place, My solace in a loud world, Just me and the trees. #haikuchallenge nature

First snow has fallen, I ran out to pick roses, Holding onto dreams. #dailyhaikuprompt first snow

Small things..✨

I notice small things.. ✨

You block out the stories, tidy up the tales of lost swords and make believe. You carry on regardless, wings folded and glamor in place. The myths put to bed in gold lined pages. You are a faded shimmer that tucks itself amidst grey. A lost verse waiting to be sung. #vssdaily block #vss365 myth

You never give up, A stubborn streak keeps you here, Hope left in the box. #haikufeels never

Oak, maple and beech, A small mandala of leaves, Crimson and copper. #haikuchallenge mandala

Autumn drops its mask, Trees now naked under sky, The winter wind laughs. #dailyhaikuprompt mask

The small things..✨

Being besieged by gremlins lately so …✍️

Seasons textures..✨

Pomegranate seeds left in the dirt. A time when months were counted and exchanged for promises. The underworld has changed, barriers fallen. We roam in the dark only because we forgot to switch on the light. #blueskyrelay underworld

History in folded paper, memento in saved things. Her life is a shoebox under the bed that has a faint scent of lavender. A lifetime of story collected and hidden. Unfinished sentences that gather dust as she dreams above them. #vss365 history

Warped sense of humour, I’m laughing at my own jokes, I think I’m funny. #haikufeels warped

The north wind will blow, And yesterday we had snow, We get out the gloves. #dailyhaikuprompt northwind

As found..✨

She has papers with the embossed coat of arms, the printed signature, proof of an education. She survived the trials, student housing,pot noodles on the stairs. A piece of paper that she cried & stressed over now folded in a box. An art degree that has no idea how to fix the tap. #vss365 education

I voted for peace, Took the tiny pencil home, Wrote a small poem. #haikufeels vote

My kingdom is dry, The well has now got a hole, The rain laughs at me. #haikuchallenge kingdom

Waking to morse code, Woodpecker at the window, The knock knock who’s there. #dailyhaikuprompt woodpecker

So I am a little wire wool ball of stress and worry right now so I’m just going to sit here quietly and write poems.
