Images Spring 2014

 

1

Willows’ wearing yellow hair

blossom’s white on cherry branch

along the river light is clear

earth is turning towards the warmth

& spring is sprung.

 

 

2.

Open skylight to the stars

moon glows close to Jupiter

& my mind hangs lightly

in the milky way

hoping for galactic sunrise.

 

 

3.

Beach cups childhood hope

gold struck in spring light

low tide smiles it’s miles,

miles of wide washed sand

whispering mermaid love songs.

 

 

4.

Woke to seagull screech again:

slow clamber to the light

emerge like diver from my dreams

of China seas & dolphin spray

the way it used to be.

 

 

5.

Light is harsh this English spring

dazzles winter’s sleep filled lair

polishes what we’ve loved & lost

till bare bones sprout an acid fuzz

& chlorophyll  will weave the dust

 

to rainbow life.
