In a bun dance

If I'm going to get something, I usually get it in spades - luck (both kinds), children, clutter, dirty laundry, bright ideas, daft ideas...

March – 100 words

March 1, 2023 By Ellen

March A yellow month daffodils, dandelion, gorse and the eyes of new-born daisies little lambkins, blossom gutters and premature chocolate eggs holly and Rudolph slip over the horizon behind and it’s spring forward into long shadows and the smell of burning meat in next door’s garden the buzz of distant mowers but we aren’t there […]

Wishing – 100 words

February 28, 2023 By Ellen

Overthinking – 100 words

February 25, 2023 By Ellen

Overthinking I have a small head, which is surprising when you consider how much thinking goes on in it. If brains were like biceps, I’d need a coracle for a hat. Not an oracle, though that might be more allegorical. When I need to know the answer – the right answer – instead of the […]
