I need to be mentally active again

Hi all

Quiet eh ?

I have been pretty inactive lately through many reasons with health and weather the main problem but the good news is I have my boys for a week or so now (no school) so I can get out and have some fun and hopefully more confidence in my photography again as some shots recently have shot me down. I also have a desire to start writing again but writers block is my main wall.
Perhaps joining a group is in the pipeline but I will see.
I hope the weather holds for better now as I believe we are all fed up with our "changeable" climate.
Liam has 3 more matches and a good chance for another trophy so good luck Liam and the Terra's, James has taken to 10 pin bowling so every Saturday a £1 a game is his choice but Dad has to sit and watch because my body will not allow the destructive drilling of a weighty ball (just as well safety wise).
Maybe some fishing for the boys, a bike ride or some walks this week so I will try and bring a more exciting blog next time although it is probably only me that reads it anyhow lol

Today a poem instead of piccy so look away none poet enthusiasts and take care all.

Thoughtless  Insanity

Sitting, staring just lost in thought,
Breathing, sighing not knowing what is on my mind,
Trying to remember skills of life I was taught,
I need something, somehow to help me unwind,

I want to write, I want to touch others with words,
I want to stun with photography,
To others this may seem absurd,
Maybe I am just creating complexity.

10 years without work have made me desire,
A desire to be useful, to be important again,
To escape these thoughts that drag me in the mire,
To erase these feelings of falling into the insane.

I have a camera but I have not the skill,
I have the writers block so the words lay silent,
The acceptance of nothingness is a bitter pill,
Creation and fulfilment the wanted statement,

I see art around me and inspiration in ink,
Pictures of the fantastic and words for thought,
I walk and look but still just think,
In empty mind syndrome my brain is caught.

Poetry, stories I have a will to write,
Pictures, stills or movement I want to capture,
The abyss of the black hole dark as night,
The words won’t come and no images in site.

I have not done much in the way off photography recently but this one is about the colours so I thought I would share it.
