daylight discovers
gristley grounded memo
feathers dusting lawn
APRIL
breeze blown petals float sunspots on rippling surface a newt's eye view
in out spokes of wire
Goldfinch skitterflit and perch
a telephone rings
contrails criss-cross
cerulean breakfast sky
glistening snail footprints
black flags uplifted
flapping, fly the cliff face -
feathered anarchists
tested boy muscles
blossom shaking six-year-old
snow litters pavement
dangling catkins drop
soggy caterpillars swim
on rain-wet pavement
step into cloudbreak
pupils shrink, lenses darken
shadow messages
sweet sneeze of mown grass
brings spangled Starlings stabbing
gangsters boss the lawn
street lamp shines sulphur
through breeze-blown leaves,
flickering
night sky embers float
every day a leg
one left over waves in air
spider abseils thread
sudden froglets leap
disturbing duckweed
surface
metamorphic life
fields left fallow
sustain soar of Skylarks
housing estate soon half-shadowed, half-lit dragonflies zigzag the rift blue between platforms
harvest storm warning
wind rattles the open sash
a dead leaf blows in
suntanned arms compared
pick the raspberry twilight
pupils back at school NOVEMBER all is silent white blown swirling into strange waves – frozen drift current |
