Leafless tree
Sky; grey on burnt red
Friendly, face to face and cyberspace
Complimentary conversations
As the light rises
And the clouds drift
I gather my thoughts
And whisper an inner word of thanks

Natural Light
At first he thought
It was a fairground attraction
A spectacularly lit, immense big wheel
He was not convinced, could it be a new
Regenerative East-Coast sculpture
A beacon across the North sea
Illumination for our European neighbours
He drove on confused, until the penny dropped
It was a slowly rising moon
A vast globe of reds and oranges
A fascinating image that got him rushing
To the nearest vantage point
Yet, just as that unfulfilling full eclipse of the sun
He had witnessed stood on the outfall of Dartmoor rock
Those seemingly few years ago
This transitory light also failed to hold its glow
He was in love back then
He is in love again now
He would care to believe more of love
Than in the intermittent light of sun or moon

Only Moment
A sharp frost
Loves remnants sprinkled
On the trees and the hedgerows
A silver white
Where has love gone
Morning sky
You are in the distance
Over the rooftops
Beyond the golden daybreak

Crystal
Turn down the night
As the cars go racing
Settle to the inner sight
Again to walk the machair
Trip down the sand dunes
All at one with two once fair
Take a balance to the light
The clock of time is south facing
The fiddler fettles as well he might
Again to drive on as we dare
Pulled by tractor through golden rills
All at one with two to care
Stroke the glass ball, here your plight
The mirage of worlds here are pacing
Life unfolds the reasons for flight
