Twinkle Twinkle Christmas Star

Twinkle twinkle Christmas star
Winter glistens in the dark
Wishes magically fulfil
And nothing seems impossible
Wrap up hope and keep it warm
Share and shelter from the storm

Laugh and live and dare to dream
While moments, choices, chances teem
Persist and push until it seems
Things can be better than they’ve been

Twinkle twinkle Christmas star
Winter glistens in the dark
Wishes magically fulfil
And nothing seems impossible
Explore and search
and distance gaze
Keep wondering and being amazed

Missing

Sad hand
Forlorn
On hard road
Under cold sun
Fingers drooping over once proud fur cuff
Lost and,
As if indignity was not enough,
Alone.

Invitation

Come into my world with me

Rage inside my soul

Tell me how things ought to be

Make me face them all

Realisation

Edit, consolidate

Pull together

Celebrate

Enjoy, integrate

Live forever

Appreciate

All we have 

Inside, around

In a slither of time

Constrained, unbound

all

we have

all

we

have it all

Inhabitation

Strange

Unexpected

Delusion?


Conversation

Sensation

Brain tumour?


If this is true
There may be jostling down the road
Or an expanded heart

London City Airport

polished heads
famous face
watch guards
noisy silence
a thousand kings and queens

loving leaving

Cockletree

Hello tree
For a while it will be me
Who tends and cares
Watches you in wind
In sun and snow
Greets your buds
Adores your bloom
But in a moment
All too soon
While you still sway and stretch and grow
I will go
You will remain
Loving life
Wind, sun and rain and then, again
Someone else may say
Hello

This Morning

Bridge to another way - protector
Link to a different view - befriender

Gentle judge and honest guide
Rain fell inside the car
Along Queensferry Road
This morning
