Not Yet Qualified

Regular practice

That’s what they said

Always, all of them

And to let go

Don’t hold on

That’s their message

But, as if to be expected

And look where it’s got me

At peace, at one

With salt thrown over my shoulder

So far away from England

A wood burning stove

Picking wild flowers

Spruce up the shrine

Biscuits so sweet

A low bed

In the Japanese style

In Wolverhampton of all places

Where their municipal gallery

Boasts a full size portrait

Of its regions most famous poet

In the Russian Orthodox style

In Wolverhampton of all places

Where my work drew me

As just someone other

With little chance of fame

And an elsewhere that I forget

Roundup

A real breakthrough day

Open hands

Everything changes

Pages and pages of insights

Nine words around sea-grass

Transformative workshop

Such a lovely day

Conflicting feelings

Usually controlled, output orientated

Heart wood

Mind maps

Using today’s words

Start of a new journey

Love life with a sense of intention

Botanical dictionary page

Lots of resonances

Perfection has been a problem
