Just read a poem that arrived in my inbox, by Brandon Som. I struggled to follow many of the lines, as some were in languages other than English and, much to my shame, I am not even bilingual, let alone multilingual! Nonetheless, the following two lines stuck! Perhaps in the same way that a saw,Continue reading “Savvy Diary – The Torture”

55: Finiarted

36: Love Is
What is love, if not that feeling of elation experienced is one heeds the ‘stop’ sign for a moment (or lots of moments) and notices … … notices, the contrasting colours in the land where we stand? The flowers in our hedgerows: The leaves at our feet: The homes of our little folks: AndContinue reading “36: Love Is”
35: Another Work Day
Blah, blah, blah! Jay? Be with you in a couple of seconds! Blah, blah, blah! But, but, but! Jay, Jay, Jay! Be with you … But, but, but …. On and on the voices drone and pester. (Just how much longer can I take?) One moment! But, blah, blah, blah! AAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRGHHHHHH! But, Jay? But, but, blah,Continue reading “35: Another Work Day”
31: Chef
It’s chucking it down with the Gods’ urine this morning. Not a day for the usual therapeutic-kerbside photography! What now? Should I work on my chart hit, or is that too yesterday? Should I plan ahead for the day job, or is that too tomorrow?* Today? Today, thanks to an early-morning interaction with the siteContinue reading “31: Chef”
28: Death
Can’t believe it! Kept in by the wind and rain, I just picked up a random book from a random shelf in my kitchen. Yes, there are books galore in every room in my house, and it is a rare moment in which I regret the purchase of any of them. Except today! TheContinue reading “28: Death”
26: Knackered

Wrote the above three sentences yesterday. Today, on my return from another day on the slog, I looked for this postContinue reading “26: Knackered”
25: Twaddle
Sun. Flowers. Sketching. Writing. Happiness. Just about sums up the last week! All was grand, until … … today! After yesterday’s prevarication, I’m surprised to find myself awake an hour before I need to be. Going back to work isn’t going to be so dreadful after all! But, there’s no point getting up before IContinue reading “25: Twaddle”
24: Hedgerows
So where did I leave you last time? Oh, yes – I was about to do my preparation for going back to The Day Job tomorrow. And, am I? Well, yes I am doing some prep, but – it’s not for my employer! And, is that a bad thing? No! Daylight’s calling and I’m slippingContinue reading “24: Hedgerows”
