Saffron aprons

Sleep

Still in the corner of my eyes

My breath

Not yet settled into a steady routine


Recovery

From a day in the garden

A day in the sun

I always used to tell my mum


Not to do too much

But

It was her way

After the least period of inactivity


Or even the sharpest strongest illness

Always before the convalescence was over

Out into the garden

To toil from dawn till dusk


Steep

Still the hills to reach the view

My depth

Not yet settled, into a life renewed
