Lent Challenge week 4

Wednesday March 26th

 The delight of reading is a right.

The banning of books to prisoners

Brings shivers of past bullies;

Physical escape can be subsumed

Into 'word food' freedom,

Ideas of a differently shaped world

Making another landscape.

Stories dissolve bars....for a time

And finds the imagination.

Hitler burnt books

We should have moved on.

Thursday March 27th

 Shape, line , colour

Trip the brain; the shot taken

A moment is trapped.

I read a chapter,

The day turns monochrome

Storm black

Fiction turns real.

Façade 

Friday March 28th

Alone with yourself

A sole stone on a beach of sand

Reach out for God.

Saturday March 29th

Find the world beneath -

Where there 's magic in dust

More than the mundane.

Sunday March 30th.  Mothers' Day

Bitter Sweet memories

Flow through the daffodils,

Tying love with loss.

Monday March 31st

Small, sour oranges

Grow towards being marmalade,

Orchids simply are.

Tuesday April 1st

 The designer wind

makes patterns with Sahara sand

through Europe: linked worlds.
