Paint-out on Sat, is at Listoke House

country and gardens as quiet as a mouse

Colourful paintings, of which there are many,

From the students of tutor, our own Deirdre Shanny.

All paintings on show in their Gallery One,

With sparkle of light and effects of the sun.

The gardens in flower with colourful flush,

The roses are opening with delicate blush.

Everything rosy, but one difference, you see

For entrance to all, there's now a small fee.

We've a had a good run, and hoping for more

That's Listoke and its house and its pointy North Door.

Comment by Norah Blount on June 18, 2016 at 19:08: I found it at last

Twas my TomTom you know

It sent me astray

To Termonfeckin far away

But my old phone it worked

And I got there at last

To coffee and cake

flowers to make

Your heart soar with longing

To just get out and pain

Well, thank you Sean for the lovely invite and a great location today

Thank you Sean for a wonderful location today

For making a comment, and putting your views.

Such poetry well-crafted and very bespoke,

I'll see youse on Saturday, up in Listoke.

Comment by Caitriona Moore on June 16, 2016 at 14:06: A poetry competition or what?

Painting Listoke out of doors

A charmed life we have got

Meeting friends and lots of lore

Comment by Sally Downey on June 15, 2016 at 19:14: Like a trout to your Mayfly

I rise to your bait,

Enthralled and bewitched

By that same pointy gate.
