They want for us… (poetry)

They want for us

No freedom or fun

Instead more a set up

Like that film Logans Run

Quite scarily similar

To V for Vendetta

Sometimes feels followed

Right down to the letter

Or what has happened

Feels more like invasion

Copied the plot

Of another, Contagion

It’s part of their plan

And dastardly tricks

For us all to be stuck

Within the Matrix

But for the sake of all

That is right and good

Instead of the gloom

We need Robin Hood

Right about now

Because not enough… (poetry)

Because not enough

Did see the sense

We are now left

With the consequence

They called us nutters

Conspiracy folk

But then it came true

No longer a joke

Calling us theorists

Goes hand in Hand

To prove that some

Don’t understand

Quite where we are

Or how we arrived

That this whole debacle

Is completely contrived

Despite the evidence

And what has unrolled

So many still fear

When they need to be bold

Because what is coming

If we don’t find our brave

Doomed to their system

We’ll all be their slave

Desert rose crystal

This is small desert rose crystal and part of my ‘collection’. Seems to be a varied one these days including fossils, shells, crystals and geology. I’m also trying new things with backgrounds when taking pictures, so get ready for more bits and pieces with colourful sparkly backgrounds 😉

Dandelion

A very underrated flower in my opinion. I thought they were weeds for quite some time, but now I know they really aren’t – or at least they are a useful one. Bees love them, and one flower seems to keep giving for quite some time. The plant is mostly edible. The leaves can be used for salads or cooked and eaten like spinach, the flower buds are good in omelets apparently, or you can put the flowers in cakes. And of course if can be turned into Dandelion and Burdoch, which I remember as horrible drink that my mother used to drink and love. I didn’t even know what burdoch looked like until I started typing this and looked it up – another fantastic ‘weed’ that is even more special. I shall try and find some and do a post about that one too.

What we’ve found… (poetry)

What we’ve found

Is they’re intent

To make us all

An experiment

To rewrite humans

And what they mean

To tamper with

And recode a gene

To change the way

We think and feel

While all the time

Trying to conceal

The bigger picture

And what’s to come

Maybe they thought

We all were dumb

And wouldn’t see

That it’s not right

And instead of bowing

They have a fight

Upon their hands

All stained with blood

What they have started

Has become a flood

Of awareness

More Muscari

Spring is in full swing, slightly held back by this cold snap we are having now, but over the last few weeks the Muscari (Grape hyacinth) has bloomed nicely and started bringing in the bees. I have planted loads more seeds which are all now sprouting so hopefully soon there will be lots of colour in the garden. Some of the seeds are last years poppies, sweet peas and nasturtium I collected and put aside for the following year – and a new pack of bee friendly flowers, so not sure what else will be coming. It’s that exciting time of the growing season!
