Janey...

Woodsmoke memories,

subtle as an early mist,

entrancing the air

Helen...

Butterflies are back!

Scalloped commas, cabbage whites

Soaking up the sun.

Janey...

Whitecaps in the bay,

seaweed scent and laughing dogs -

my morning complete

Helen...

 These autumn colours!

Red Geum, Echinacea

Graceful white toadflax.

Janey...

We 'prayed' for rain

and,

like we had done anything 

right,

the rains arrived

Helen...

High against blue sky:

A tower of beans that even

Jack would fail to climb.

Janey Thompson...

September silence,

sunlight sparkles on the sea,

summer's afterglow

Helen...

Blackberry picking.

Placing the activity

after the name works!

Janey...

Ruby-red rowans,

birches dripping diamond drops 

greet our wedding-walk

Helen...

After so much heat

Rain should feel welcome and fresh

Not this heavy damp.

Janey...

Cutting the hedges

now it's just the two of us -

the fledglings have flown

Helen

Unmistakable –

Yellow leaves amid dark green,

Chill in morning air.

Janey...

A pink summer-dawn,

a haziness, the season

drawing to a close

Helen...

 Deliciously cool

These mornings with their bright skies 

Full of shouting birds
