Moon Glow
A halo of cold
Surrounds the
Undercurve
The Chin of the moon
Differentia - Words and Pictures
A beautiful world of words and pictures.

SMall stones - January 30
Golden Buttercup
A golden sun
Shining alone
Among grass
Long gone green
A solar explosion
Of butter
A golden sun
Shining alone
Among grass
Long gone green
A solar explosion
Of butter

Small stones - January 29
No home for a house mouse
A frozen and slow mouse
Limping across frosted flakes on leaves
No looking back now
So far from its home
Babies await safe delivery
No longer beneath the sofa
A margarine carton provided safe passage
To a world outside
No home for a house mouse
A frozen and slow mouse
Limping across frosted flakes on leaves
No looking back now
So far from its home
Babies await safe delivery
No longer beneath the sofa
A margarine carton provided safe passage
To a world outside
No home for a house mouse

Frosted flakes
Underfoot
Making a sugar crunch
Every step
Morning before
Breakfast

Horses (to Patti Smith)
Leather sides rippling under the touch
Coiled spring waiting to act
Deep as a well
Deep as hell
Touching, touching, touching
Rippling, rippling, rippling
Stillness expressed through strength
Leather sides rippling under the touch
Coiled spring waiting to act
Deep as a well
Deep as hell
Touching, touching, touching
Rippling, rippling, rippling
Stillness expressed through strength

Still Life
It has rained
And droplets await
Hanging limp from
From boughs that break
Under the weight of
A world of problems
We make
It has rained
And droplets await
Hanging limp from
From boughs that break
Under the weight of
A world of problems
We make

Bare Trees
Bare trees
Soaking up sunlight
Warming the rough bark
Fulfilling the
soul

Heron's Flight
Heron's Flight
Ghosting over
Water
Black and still
A river sleeps
At low tide
Waiting for the
on rush
of a full and
Glowing moon

Lapwings on Blue
Lapwings flight
Wings collecting sunlight
On wings that flap
Black and white
a mono world
Against a screen
Of blue

On wings that flap
Black and white

Washed up
Washed up jewel
of the sea
A Jelly once
Reflecting a low shining sun
Sinking below the sea

Ferry from Mull
A ferry journey in the dark
Has it left yet?

An old man told me ...
Cairns cover fallen heroes
A made up story to stop a road
The heroes won this time

An ancient walk
The Knee Well
The Eye Well
Invite me to
Climb the hill
Old age protectionism

Switching off
Houses huddled
And dark
People frozen in
A power cut
Waiting for the switch
A spark of life

People frozen in

Waiting for the switch

Tropical Cold
A tropical place
Of great cold and ancient stories
White caps chasing wind
The sun can wait

Of great cold and ancient stories
White caps chasing wind
The sun can wait
