Sark

I was in the moment
On the headland meadow
Laying on the grass
In my green striped shirt

I was simply being
Being; in a place
Where I wanted to be
It was such a moment

Bedroll

I forget how many times I've turned over for passion
Or was it for compassionate leave

To grieve for nights that wander by no more

Or was it, for some misguided reason
To try and even up the score

Chimes Café

Some places get it just on right
With cream & green & rattan
The aroma of the baking
Travels with the light

The old cottage window
Preserved from the past
Candlesticks and flowers
Nought that moves too fast

The coffee & the flapjack
Tiled roof’s up to the sky
Another makeshift morning
Slow time; simply wandering by

Premier

The cloth is cut
By a utilitarian

Breakfast cooked
By a journeyman

Out of the window
A dual-carriageway

Where are the songs
& the time to play

So contrived; the roll
Of out of focus flowers

On the bedroom wall
Hinting at a quieter hour

Vagaries

Her physical size
In the apparition
Brings a comfort
Also her just ease
At following, ever
So slightly behind

As you, somewhat 
More pronounced
Opened your heart
And the three of us
Strode out, off into
The full day’s sun
