The moon from the back garden tonight. Phone camera on 100% Zoom.

No snow fell on Foldindworth last night
A Christmas day with firelight bright

Family gathers as carols fill the air
Peace & goodwill in this festive prayer

Stockings hang full of treats galore
Robin sing outside each frosted door

Raise a glass to family so dear
Fill your heart with festive cheer

Finally completed on the new home, due to unforeseen issues, all our furniture and worldly belongings aren't turning up till Wednesday, so we only have the clothes we left in. But at least we have heating.

Boxes are stacked van's at the door
Bittersweet moment we can't ignore
Leaving Riddings with memories entwined
Of laughter, sunshine, and peace of mind

Happy days echo in each empty room
Where kids played, dispelling the gloom
The odd dark day a shadow past
New beginnings beckon, our future amassed

I haven't left the darkside yet, so I can leave replies to the TRAITOR.

Times running out, we can't continue to let these world leaders, fail to lead.
How much more evidence do we need, after 29 failures, that the climate COPs are not fit for purpose? Doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.
There have been many proposals for a process that would actually work, but all are ignored.
The talks are MEANT to fail.

BBC declares festive cheer
A Christmas gift that's drawing near
Wallace & Gromit back in sight
A cracking tale to warm the night

Gromit's eyes will roll & gleam
As Wallace hatches a madcap scheme
So gather round the telly bright
A Christmas treat a wondrous sight

Trying to grow my followers, I will post a few simple (due to word count) news relevant poems each week on my feed to hopefully add a few smiles in a messed up world.

Last about farmer's, snow & Derbyshire.

In fields where golden harvests sway,
A farmer's plight unfolds today.
With weathered hands and furrowed brow,
He rises to challenge tax somehow.

United voice, strong and bold,
I have no money, we are told.
His plea for fairness fills the air,
Our non farmer's a F@@king millionaire.

Both in the news today for differing reasons. Michael Sheen who remortgaged his house to fund the Homeless World Cup, Jeremy Clarkson who bought a farm to evade tax.

Beth Rigby, very indignantly "You think Wealthy Landowners need to pay more tax."

Well it is a HELL YES isn't it.

RT if it is.

If you bring central London to a halt in order to campaign against catastrophic climate change then you're a "barmy" eco "fanatic" who deserves to be locked up.

If you do the same to hang on to your multimillion pound inheritance tax exemption then you're a brave freedom fighter defying the odds

You have to admire Nigel Farage - who else would have the nerve to pretend to be the defender of farmers, after selling their whole industry down the river with his Brexit shitshow.

This might be confrontational, but if he doesn't want to pay his fair share of tax, take his fucking NHS paid for stents out, and see if he lives 6 years. Twat.

Socialism is the process where everyone gets to eat, have someplace to stay, get education and medical attention. It is not a process to make everyone poor. You’re living under that in the west right now.

The snow falls soft on Kinder Scout
A blanket white, no room for doubt
The peaks are lost, the valleys deep
Where secrets hide and shadows sleep

In Chatsworth's park, the deer stand bold
Against the white, a sight to behold
The snowdrifts gleam, a crystal maze
Reflecting back the sun's pale rays

Someone is enjoying the early snow fall.
