Ian’s morning strolls

The billboard promises 

Ian’s morning strolls

ne’er delirium could inveigh

the things on Ian’s stroll today

bits of this and an artefact

ne’er delirium but arty tack

Ian’s morning strolls

Ian’s morning stroll

       act one

the curtains open

the set has been rearranged

enter stage left

all the supporting actors

as the prompt whispers

"look!"

~

Ian’s morning stroll

        act two

picture this ~ nature centre stage

riding Wendy’s wire a sunbeam of

Peter Pan crosses to the high windows

the wire squeals the audience’s delight

upon reflection the face of recollection

changes to a smile

~

Ian’s morning stroll

   - intermission - 

the noun is a verb

      The Verb

all the stations of the crossing 

to MediaCity

all the train windows on all 

the platforms of hallucination

today a rainbow of thought

next time a river

tomorrow?

act four of 

Ian’s morning stroll

the bell rings

~

Ian’s morning stroll 

      act three

the suspense builds

will the banana skin

or the pigeon slip

what are the four coins saying

Inspector Stroll will reveal all

in the last act of this play on words

it’s popcorn Jim

but not as we know it

~

Ian’s morning stroll 

        the finale 

nature’s backdrop 

the cast take a bow

in order of appearances

we can see it now

it was Ian who done it

who walked the line

the sun is up

all is fine
