once they would have celebrated a goal with a cheer, a punching fist
but now older men complete crosswords and smile
they know the past and its value
and the warm contentment that enfolds them into the darkness
Poetry?
dark night
dark night, dark dreams swirling
eyes flicker, will they open?
blue bruised sky slowly lightens
Arriving at school
Arriving at school without my pants
caused some moments of cognitive dissonance
I looked at the playground clock, it was just eleven
but then the alarm rang and I woke up at seven.
Aged forty eight.
Walk into the woods with me
Walk into the woods with me
There is no path but there is sunlight and shadow
Later we can decide
If we will ever walk out again
New word: thundersnow
new word: thundersnow
what on earth can that be like?
my heart in your hands
The clue to the title is ‘six’
I still did not know your name
when I first saw your smile
I stood there in the melted snow
bus waiting hands burning despite my gloves
love (I think) filled my heart
snow on sea
snow on sea
salt flake melts on tongue
single tear falls
New endings
years end every year
new beginnings
hope
Hope near
Hope near invisible
Flicker of an eyelid
Curve of a smile
You bring my life
you lend my life lustre
dullened silver reflecting your light
love long lasting and light
