Blue Sky Over Maidenhead

As I look up I see a fly buzzing around
Beneath the clear blue sky over maidenhead
  A union Jack
 Flying
 Flapping
                                                   Flurrying                                                  
In the strong gust adding grace and officiality
To the majestic Town Hall
Beneath the clear blue sky over Maidenhead

A glance to my right brings to my attention
The remains of a beautiful rainbow
Semi circles with fading shades of red orange
Yellow green blue indigo and violet
Stained on the library window
Beneath the clear blue sky over Maidenhead

I pause for thought then gaze out
From the square window of Maidenhead Library
Across the way I see the grand town hall building 
Standing tall and strong
Besides it the memorial with its tall cross cast in stone 
Emblazoned with decorations and the names
Of heroes long past who salutes the people as the pass
Beneath the clear blue sky over Maidenhead

I see the grounds with neatly cut grass
A labyrinth of shrubs arranged in size shape and colour
Cast iron and wooden benches for passers-by to take
The weight off their feet as they tread the stone paths
Beneath the clear blue sky over Maidenhead

Suddenly a gush
 Then a rush 
The breeze sweeps over my face
Lifts papers out of place
The royal trees of green
Sway and stray in the gusty wind
Beneath the clear blue sky over Maidenhead

Between the beauty of all this love and Nature's care
Planes roar high in the air
Travellers 
Vehicles
 Peoples 
Are on the road
Whilst others stroll and chat
Beneath the clear blue sky over Maidenhead

Peace and equilibrium strikes
At the sight and magic of a bride and groom
Celebrating their wedding in May not June
Under the gazing smiles of those who play  
Beneath the clear blue sky over Maidenhead


I palpitate my circles of light and love
to embrace and engulf you true!
