The Hospital Bed

The hospital bed

Hello my old friend

I was hoping I wouldn’t

See you again

—

The nurses are great

They work so hard

Those in power don’t notice

Until they’ve raised a placard

—

Someone mentioned patients

Can no longer get flowers

Days and nights merge as one

I count down the hours

—

I lay here hoping…

Waiting for the doctor to say

“You’re finally well enough

To be on your way.”

Tile Tales – Cycle

Cycle – By KL Caley – Nature Kit

A touch of spring spirit in today’s Tile Tales. Did you know: Mid-latitude animals born in spring have the best chance of survival. Tropical animals, where food is easily available all year round, are born during any season. For most middle latitude animals, it is a delicate balance between being born late enough to avoid the last snow storm and early enough to be well developed to face the rigors of fall and winter.

❔ Did you know that a group of rabbits in the UK is called a nest of rabbits. Whereas in Canada a group of rabbits is called a fluffle. Which one do you prefer?

Arches

Founded in 1132

This mighty Abbey stands

Although missing some features

It still looks pretty grand

Aelred had been a steward

In David the firsts Scottish household

But at Rievaulx he rose to become Abbot

And died at 57 years old

—

Work continued under Abbot Silvanus,

With an extension of the abbey church at this time

Providing a magnificent setting

For the now, Saint Aelred’s shrine

—

Severe financial problems followed,

and a cash crisis caused a resignation.

In 1538 Rievaulx Abbey was shut

During Henry VIIIs religious reformation

Tile Tales – Fashion

Fashion by KL Caley _ Mustache Kit

My husband and I watched a documentary recently on what the fashion trade had done to the Aral Sea and it weighed heavily on my mind. For those interested, there is an impressive article here in the guardian showing the difference between 2000 and 2014. That’s a devastating effect just in my lifetime. I hope we can find some solutions and heal our planet.

Tile Tales – Son

Son – Poet kit

Is there any feeling more wonderful, than a tiny person wrapping their little arms around you in a tight hug?

Although all hugs are magical, I think those are my favourite.

Tile Tales – War

War – By KL Caley – Geek Kit

I think this tile tale was slightly inspired by Stephen King’s Fairytale, which I absolutely loved.

I started reading Stephen King’s books at around 12 years old, having outgrown RL Stine and the Goosebumps books and wanting something more. I read The Shining and it scared the cr*p out of me, which started my love affair with his works! Fairytale is totally different from that, it’s so bizarre and surreal yet equally as fascinating!

Of course, my favourite King book is “On Writing”, which I recommend to every author-in-progress out there.

❔ Have you read any of Stephen King’s works? Any favourites?
