It's Still Life

I. A walk in the spring sunshine along the coast. Thankful of this view of Seven Sisters and Beachy Head.

II. A 10-metre 3-pin charging cable. Thankful the electrician understood what I was saying; you can’t draw 30-amp off a spur. 

III. Thankful that the clocks are finally on British Summertime: spring ahead one hour.

IV. Spring, yes technically, but a cold North wind turned us sub-zero again for a few days. Daffodils dissolved like rice paper. Thankfully, they were almost finished anyway.

V. And so, it figures, weather went warm then cold then warm — and I caught a beastly cold. I will endeavour to find something about it to be thankful for. 

VI. My neighbour’s flowering cherry tree. I’m thankful for the view of it.

VII. That the tulips are still going strong and that frost didn’t bother them. 

VIII. This week’s Six Sentence Story finds Brigid and Felreil on a paddle-steamer sailing the Rhône river. The Liturgy is here. I am thankful to Denise for organising and posting a prompt word each week. 

IX. I am thankful to share some news. Nick (Spira) and I have been working on a book of his B&W film photography with my accompanying poems. The Book is called ST(R)AY. It is published, released and available.
EU and UK: here.
Or in the USA.

If you search ST(R)AY (include the parenthesises, please) it will show up in their worldwide storefront. 

X.  My crow who always makes me laugh. He’s busy with sticks this morning.
