Poets' corner

Totally Taurus

My daily horoscopes

Leave me sad,

In the paper,

Black on white.

 

When they're bad

They're never wrong,

When they're good

They're never right.

 

I could believe them

If I had

One good reason,

Even slight.

 

Now I'll add,

And pitch it strong:

In the main

I find them trite.

Skye Weather

We've had snow, it is true, a mere centimetre or two

Though you may find that hard to believe;

Yet in the East, there's been five inches at least,

Such imbalance is hard to conceive.

It's now all but gone, and it didn't last long

The birds and the daffs are relieved.

Spring's on its way, give it just one more day,

If the forecasts can be believed.
