15 years on, 230,000 badgers dead, and no meaningful reduction in bTB in cattle. Lets end the cull now, not years down the line.

Every minute
we make choices that lead to
our future selves.

#micropoetryadvent24
Good morning everyone. Today's prompt is about the paths and trackways we take and notice.

Ivy leads the way,
trackways greened in the watchful,
persistence of leaves.

A previous life,
so familiar despite
years, oceans, apart.

#micropoetryadvent24
Day 22 Good morning everyone, today's prompt is something surprising.

A single berry,
a prize for the wood pigeons,
crimson fattening.

The soft footfalls of
an elegant brush turkey

Fluffy whiteness over
a world in miniature,
ethereal clouds.

#micropoetryadvent24
Good morning everyone. Today's prompt is to notice something white.

Snowberries ripen,
like magic from fairytales,
a shock in the hedge.

Confined behind a
tray table, longitude blurs
time - adventure starts.

#micropoetryadvent24
Good morning everyone, today's prompt is archways or thresholds, things you can step through.

Blackthorn keeps thresholds,
biding and dreaming long nights,
secret stars forming.
