YOU’RE NOT CRAZY, YOU’RE JUST ADVENTUROUS

(I think a reckless idea just struck my Papa!!)

When a reckless idea strikes,

freeze!

Assume hunting dog pose.

Stretch your ears skywards,

lean in, listen.

Wait for the chest tickle

to smile,

For the eye-twinkle

to squeal.

If the bubbles rise,

and the gasp tingles,

A soupçon of collateral madness

must be smouldering,

eager for

a big bold

 

YES!

 

Praise for my new poetry book, Illicit Croissants At Dawn:

·       A grown-up, bohemian Shel Silverstein..."

·       “Mischief and meaning in equal measure.”

·       “Poetry that wears its cleverness lightly.”

·       " Not fussed about poetry? This book might just win you over."

My book is available on Amazon (Amazon.de or Amazon.fr if ordering from Switzerland). Once you have read it, please circle back and leave me a review as it helps others find me.
