Opening the blinds
And I saw mist
Okay if you insist
Mist it shall be
And mystery
Today the feast of
The Trinity
I had a look at Church-TV
And I’d missed Mass
Many times I see
How many sins in that collection!
Far beyond my recollection
Early morning
Day before me
Peaceful house
I don’t snore me!
Yes I do
Afraid to say
But no one here
To record or play
I’ll play with words
I’ll tell a story
Think of loved ones
Tea I’ll pour me
Reminisce
On woeful City
De Bruyne walloped
More’s the pity
Think of Bolton
Coming season
Signs of hope
Rhyme and reason
Look back down
The road I came
Now a settled
Story tame
All is peace
In my endeavour
Play with words
Aren’t I clever!
More than that
I offer pieces
Thoughts ideas
Other choices
Sharing all
That came to me
Take whatever
Enthuses thee
Put away
My private station
Now I want
To join the nation
Be a part
Of each one’s story
Help us all
To days of glory
Danny Blanchflower
Said it right
Winning is but
The end in sight
But wanting to win
Playing with style
The beautiful game
Makes life worthwhile
