Inside my bag are packed the things that fill my heart with joy the faded, threadbare shawl that whispers a tinplate soldier toy. Inside my bag wrapped well in cloth a tiny mirror fragment immortalised inside that glass the ghosts of those I love Some memories are intransigent Inside my bag stowed very safe two… Continue reading My home

Misty Dawn
Misty Dawn Two souls dancing an aerial ballet in the calm dappled light of misty dawn flying and zooming without interplay two souls dancing an aerial ballet saying a farewell they can’t delay as the zephyr breeze plays a carillon two souls dancing an aerial ballet In the calm dappled light of the misty dawn… Continue reading Misty Dawn
The sign
Dark days become nights the stars don’t align in this nightmare world of retrograde time Stare into the cosmos look for a sign Spiral out of control, lost lifes design You were my anchor now gone such a crime Dark days become nights the stars don’t align Need to find a new path draw out… Continue reading The sign

Ah Winter.
Is winter here yet? Winter set into my heart many months ago The freezing block rimed with sparkling ice Growing bigger with my fountain of black tears How I long for the heat of summer to release me To allow me from this numbed prison.

Mist rising upwards like gossamer threads Clearing my mind from the fog, that you left Treading in circles, the pathway obscured The mist is slowly burning off, a signpost has cleared Chosing a way to move forward in my life Tears replaced, smiling revived
