Happy Pancake Poem!
Flipping light
A long streak of white moon slides
drops of silver on to a hairy earth.
When a sly street lamp scatter guns
neon candy it bounces
off unsuspecting geometric symmetric
random roof tops.
Neglected horizons fall in line for sunrise.
Everything too tall to beat to the bird song
Is painted orange.
Morning is a grand design.
Enjoy more work inspired by the first thoughts of the morning here and below

It’s true, pancakes are so basic but today they feel like a luxury (nutella and sugar on top!). I had a great time reading your poetry on Greeting Cards. Your handwriting is breathtakingly beautiful. Here’s to a happy year ahead!

Thanks so much for the link back. The poem is wonderful. I especially was taken by this line: When a sly street lamp scatter guns
neon candy it bounces
off unsuspecting geometric symmetric

Thank you! I miss the people of WordPress when I have been away even though we never meet in person, it’s funny how much encouragement and positive energy bloggers have for each other. Lovely to connect. Your images and Haikus are so beautifully matched, they always open up a new world to me. I’m excited to follow more of your poetry 201 series.
Agreed, no matter what the landscape, sunrise is always a beauty! Thankfully!! 😉

For me happiness and pancakes are synonymous; but having pancakes, happiness and poem in the same sentence is even better. 🙂

I ate one for you! I came back from the dentist and got told to eat lots of sweet things to test out a filling so have been filling my boots with dessert.
I just had a great time hanging out on your blog. You have so many exciting projects underway. It’s inspiring to follow your journey and I wish you a big bag of success with everything you are applying yourself to. The aerial work is super impressive.
Thank you so much for this lovely comment 🙂

That’s very unusual for a dentist to suggest binging on sweet things, but great for you!
I treated myself to a wholemeal wrap with chocolate spread and banana. Almost the same thing. Almost.
That’s awesome! Thanks so much for your kind comments, it’s nice coming on to find some messages waiting 😀
