Sun transforms the front room
most mornings,
provoking the succulent
from Sainsbury’s to erupt
from its pot, a bid for freedom.
Pictures of beloved family
approve, share space
on the walls. Acrylic ink
splashes on the honey-pine floor.
Cosmos and dahlias defy
November frosts, inspire visions.
Occasional sparrow or robin
peers in, to check on progress.
Sometimes she yearns for
a real studio, to spread her wings.
A real delight of lightly presented goodies, in a casual style that runs through much of your work and draws us in inimitably (or something like that!).

The succulent from Sainsbury's, brilliantly grounds this. I think she deserves one of those garden room studios Greg. Start saving up!

We have the garden room, Graham, but it's rather cold and wet and muddy down there at this time of the year! Thanks for your kind words, Ray.
