Archipelago An archipeligo of islands laying in the sun Sea narrowed and channelled making funnelled runs The ship making twists and turns As she winds the laborious path Moving the views round and round From Islands green to rocky ground White yachts beating as they weave and race Speedboats charge and set the pace Passengers… Continue reading Archipelago

Stormy
Cymbals crashing in the sky Staccato rain blowing by Grey and dark The heavens split Zig zag flashes Dash and flit Thunder rolls we count the time To gauge the storms centre line Dark clouds roil, gold underlit Nature’s majesty unfurled Watching in awe it’s dominance of our world
