Lent Challenge Week 2

Wednesday Feb 25th

Three Spitfire engines

Purred through the war thanks to Cath,

Don't knock the old!

Thursday Feb 26^th

Kites circle grey skies,

On damp, grey land, nothing stirs,

Sunset's a surprise.

Friday/ Saturday Feb 27^th 28^th

Betrayed again,

Greedy MPs accept

Money for introductions;

Squandering trust,

Entrenching cynicism

Bruising the electorate

Again.

In Russia bullets

Eliminate opposition,

Ravening greed to keep power,

Gorging on the 'me' ideology.

There is another way:

'Neighbour’ could replace 'I'.

Sunday March 1st

Gurgles of laughter,

Loved faces, minds in accord:

Treasured spots of time.

Monday March 2nd

Bounding hares, munching

Leeks, wearing daffodils, give

March its imagery!

Tuesday March 3rd

Slowly the boa shrugs off

Its old skin like sins

Which have been forgiven.
