No Censor July 5, 2016
Young innocent minds
Full of imagination

Solace July 3, 2016
I lean on your strong
Full of feed and hay, sleepy

Motel Hotel June 27, 2016
Crisp clean white bed sheets
Air con set on sixty-six
Sleep till you wake up.
Art Prescription: Who doesn’t enjoy the luxury of a hotel room with loads of clean linens, and the joy of not having to laundry a single thing! Pull those black-out curtains close and after a shower, and of course room service, snuggle into a pile of pillows and sleep…and sleep…
