Everything you do- Turn it into poem food See the world anew Spiky cables hanging from the wall Disappear beneath the floor Let me try to figure out What they all are for Eventually we connect the lot Turn on the power and hear- A pop Of course the colours have all changed From red and black To brown and blue Then the blue turned back (to black) In an effort to confuse After lunch I see my mistake Just take this off and use this one Flick the switch, and oh be joyful All the lights come on

Electrics, starting with a senryu
Everything you do- Turn it into poem food See the world anew Spiky cables hanging from the wall Disappear beneath the floor Let me try to figure out What they all are for Eventually we connect the lot Turn on the power and hear- A pop Of course the colours have all changed From red and black To brown and blue Then the blue turned back (to black) In an effort to confuse After lunch I see my mistake Just take this off and use this one Flick the switch, and oh be joyful All the lights come on
My dad, a retired electrician, has been helping to get the electrics finished on my extension building project.
