lonely


I couldn't sleep that well last night and was up around 5 am bathing before thinking about going to work.
A flapping at the window signalled the arrival of the now single bantam cockerel on his way to the gardens towards Trendy Carol's for the morning.
He sat on the window sill looking at me for a moment
Then sat some more
Quietly and without panic as I splashed quietly away
In the first time in his life that has spanned over two years now,  he is alone
And I am sure he sat watching me , because he recognised me as someone who occasionally feeds him.
He's in his own lockdown now.
Alone and suddenly lonely
And sat a few feet away from someone he was familiar with
A moment that may have made him feel just a tiny bit better.

WHAT HAPPENS IN THE GARDEN - IS A FREE CONCERT


The bird(s) were watchful  at the transformation happening below them.  Their singing harmonized so that their  song(s) vibrated an energy that matched the blooming of the flowers.  As buds sprouted the birds (for there were many)  sang a joyful song and as the buds opened in full bloom  the song(s) in the trees sounded like an orchestra playing the most heavenly music.  And best of all the concert was free as free as the birds.

Double Entendre

Knock on the lane window around 1.30 pm
It was  old "Mr Hughes" brandishing an Aldi Carrier bag

He's a brusque fellow, not really known for his warmth,
I came out to the kitchen wall and said hello

Apparantly his street Warden had given him a couple of ready meals that were not quite to his taste
" I thought your dogs may like them!" he said with uncharacteristic generosity
I looked at the container


" I hate offal" he said seriously and I laughed
" Oh I haven't had a nice faggot for an absolute age !" I replied ....giddy as a kipper!!!

Mr Hughes sort of half smiled and there was a faint twinkle in his eye

" Aye..... that's the lockdown for you we've all had to make sacrifices  " 

Some may a bit of help to get this joke
