A Collection of Verse: Volume V

The usual suspects gather. The splendour of the natural world surrounding it cannot fail to inspire. Changing seasons bring varying outlooks. Whether in the wilderness or just looking upon the garden.

Family interactions feature in this collection, some from the view of a son, some of a father. Situations which may strike a chord with others.

The effort of keeping surplus weight off, especially after working hard to shift it, in the first place is always a challenge and prompted a few indifferent verses.

This volume includes a homage to the American comedy drama M.A.S.H, a programme I have to acknowledge as shaping my sense of humour, whilst I watched it throughout childhood and teenage.

Social comment has again managed to squeeze itself in. There is always something going on in society that gets under my skin at some point, whether it be people driving like idiots or those unfortunate souls who have bad neighbours.
