Ah! the crashing waves
On such a stormy sea
With us on the boat
It was fun at first
Soaked to the bones, salty smell
Jolting the boat up
Being heaved and whisked
Intermittently white noise
Such an experience!

in the spring time
who’s sploshing in the water?
frog jumps in the pond
frog jumps in the pond
as I sat by the water
on a sunny day
wild flowers abound
grass so green and sky so blue
beauty around us
frame of nature
the gentle waves of the sea
watching the sunset
coconut trees sway
paddy fields in the background
birds chirping sweetly
rays of holiness
starting the day with thanks
with sunshine and love
trees glisten
autumn day is like a dream
cool breeze and dark time
autumn winds whisper
crispy leaves falling from trees
heaps of gold and red
with the lochs and moors
mists over the foreign highlands
caressing mountains
over the rainbow
in a land so far away
waiting for some hope

Alec, my nephew, has always been an Ariana Grande fan. He has all her albums. He is saving all his pocket money and the money he earned when he worked last year for her concert. When I heard about the Manchester explosion, Alec was the first thing on my mind. My brother’s email came saying he wasn’t there. Alec went to Birmingham concert last Thursday and treated himself to a VIP ticket. I was relieved. But my heart goes out to all the young people who lost their lives, as well as the injured ones. Praying for Manchester. Love always prevails.
After the dark clouds
Hope, love and togetherness
Pray for Manchester

summer morning
the flower’s scent is heaven
serene feeling all over
on a clear day
trying to reach the sky
joy of being here
clear sky, bright day
having ice-cream and chatting
summer is here
time to be with friends
fun swimming by the lake
and having picnic
first day of summer
the sea asked to be admired
nature’s gift to us
refreshingly good
joy of being in water
sunset by the sea

fresh fallen snow
the yellow Chrysanthemums look
more yellowish

fresh fallen snow
would you believe, in April?
surprise, surprise
the yellow Chrysanthemums look
so pretty, spring is here
and everything’s bright
more yellowish
marigold and daffodils
cheerful and sunny

early morning dew
as I stroll through the park
such chill in the air
as the sun shines
sweet spring, enjoy life’s offer
a welcoming sight
a new day has come
new dawn, a new beginning
life is wonderful

Don't decide to get hurt, just go along with all of this knowing there's nothing I can do but keep going. I am pushed and pulled by forces and I know that where I am is a place I will look back on, with nostalgia, with a very intense memory.
