the bench with a view
to the lonely boat
that bobs up & down
like a demented duck

#micropoetry

[marianne ridgewell @micorsica]

tell me a story
as I sink into
the blanket of sand

#micropoetry

[marianne ridgewell @micorsica]

eyelash trees
with blue eye shadow
above punctuated by
the cacophony of crows

#micropoetry

[marianne ridgewell @micorsica]

the soft sweeping
waves at low tide
leave the plastic
bottles to emote

#micropoetry

[marianne ridgewell @micorsica]

wet earth
seeks solace
in warm sunshine

#micropoetry

[marianne ridgewell @micorsica]

lemon puddle cake
I tend to excess
on the sweet stuff

#micropoetry

[marianne ridgewell @micorsica]

sunset in Devon
the funfair drawing
lines like a battleship

#micropoetry

[marianne ridgewell @micorsica]

small yellow bird
sipping sunshine
from a green straw

#micropoetry

[marianne ridgewell @micorsica]

scruffy thoughts
the reed beds
pillow my uncertainty

#micropoetry

[marianne ridgewell @micorsica]

my Christmas corner
no added tinsel or baubles
a meditation on not wanting

#micropoetry

[marianne ridgewell @micorsica]

soggy world
trying to shake
itself dry
under the weak sun

#micropoetry

[marianne ridgewell @micorsica]

still water
fish wait
for mayfly

#micropoetry

[marianne ridgewell @micorsica]

quietly the morning
pulls back the curtains
of my dreams

#micropoetry

@microprompt

the bear necessities
(need to get this one in quick) for me
are a man, a knife
and Earl Grey tea

[marianne ridgewell @micorsica]

#micropoetry

merchants' houses
now cafe & crystal
emporiums cheek
by embarrassed jowl

#Glastonbury

[marianne ridgewell @micorsica]

Sand bay
basks like
a drowned whale
its vast expanse
a useful repository
for my wilder thoughts

#microprompt #Somerset

[marianne ridgewell @micorsica]

old court building
saw little justice
while Jeffries practised
here

#micropoetry #Somerset

[marianne ridgewell @micorsica]

gathering cloud
in these wetlands
Somerset breathes
in water like
an overworked dragon

#micropoetry #Chew Valley

[marianne ridgewell @micorsica]

cool juxtaposition
the tree hesitates
which is the best match

#micropoetry #Glastonbury

[marianne ridgewell @micorsica]

so much colour
Quality Street
in Glastonbury
