Sunday 16/06/19 Bump-ing Along

Stab city update?
A real shame for London, true!
But what’s it to Bump?

Bumhole Hole’s twitting,
Smells like a rancid sewer!
“Will only get worse!”

Ramat Trump, Trump Heights

Israel’s Bump Heights.
A place to take pot shots from!
To people below?

Thursday 13/06/19 It’s wet outside

Down London’s wet streets,
The rain is falling once more.
It is wet outside!

There’s a change ahead,
And things will be different!
Take them as they come!

What’s the city’s mood?
Hopeful, excited or dulled?
Each has their own bag.

Monday 27/05/19 More Training

Saw the Javelin,
High Speed 1 to St Pancras,
But does it go fast?

High Speed 1 Javelin at Rainham

So, I let it go!
I’ll race it to London now,
Zooming across Kent.

Saturday 18/05/19 Postman’s Park

Such a pleasant place,
In the centre of London,
Winter or Summer.

Postman's Park at evening

Springtime or autumn,
It has a restful beauty
If had some more time.

Tuesday 14/05/19 Griffin Mates

They’re everywhere,
Griffins standing strong and proud,
Around London town.

London griffin standing guard

Here is one I saw,
As I walked the other day,
Looking so fierce here.

Monday 13/05/19 Characters

Is it really you?
So, are you a character.
Let us know you’re there!

Few and far between,
Here’s someone wearing a hat.
Does that qualify?

Walking down the street

We must do better,
Show the great people around.
We’re on the lookout!

Wednesday 01/05/19 Wren

He hid the design,
Of St Paul’s as it was built.
We like it alot.

Wren’s bust at the Guild Hall

How many were lost?
Wren churches in the air raids.
Seems, most were rebuilt.

But Gray Friars Church,
Remains just as just a spire
And two walls, so good.

Tuesday 30/04/19

It’s warmer today,
There is a real buzz in the air,
Or is it a bee!

Escaping by train,
London dissappearing now,
Seen through sleepy eyes.

Blue saying come inside

Blue door left open,
The stairs are so inviting!
I stand there outside.

Saturday 27/04/19

I walk in London,
I enjoy the sites and details,
Found along the way.

A detail on a building along Throgmorton Avenue

Throgmorton a street,
An Avenue, it is one.
Here is a detail.

Thursday 25/04/19 London

London walking routes,
I’m enjoying walking them.
One walk at a time.

St Lawrence Jewry today

Saw this church today,
Burnt ’66, then ’40,
Rebuilt in Wren’s style.
