Sunday 24/03/19 Sunset

The sun has just set,
Good to watch the colours change.
I try to capture.

I hope you like this,
Amazing sunset colours,
A daily display.

I’ve found some old stuff,
A verse or two I’ve written,
And not yet published.

Nothing to say now,
My mind’s refusing to work,
Sleep is sneaking up.

Feeling so hungry,
Missed breakfast and want something,
A bacon sandwich!

A cup of coffee,
Will go down well, black and sweet.
Must find a cafe.

The sun shines brightly,
This morning is so lovely,
Wait for water bans!

A cloudless blue sky,
Spread out so bluely intense,
Hats and sun cream time.

Like ‘Sheer Heart Attack’,
From Brighton Rock with great guitar,
Thank you Brian May.

And the “Now I’m Here.”
I grew up with it back then,
In my early teens.

And “Tenement Funster”
Do you recall 45’s?
It all seems so old.

The sky has great clouds,
Some large and like mountains high,
Some small and many.

There are some that stretch,
Across the sky in layers,
Drifting ever on.

Blossom on the trees,
That calls the springtime forth,
In eye catching style.

Soon, summer will come.
Here too soon and then it’s gone.
I’ll feel I’ve missed it.

Oh yes I signed it,
I did it last night, it’s right!
3 million now.

Government buggles,
Can be trusted no longer,
We need a new vote.

Canopy cover,
Egg, bacon, sausage and toast,
Breakfast anyone?

Surprising good deal,
Came from EU last night,
Some logic at last.

May was not involved,
Maybe that helped the process.
One that makes some sense!

Dinah Washington
Such great phrasing and vocals,
Return to it oft.

Madeleine Peyroux
Has these similar phrasing
I like her a lot.

There’s an abundance,
Of great music and singers,
I’m listening now.
