Higher ground

I came to catch the light of summer

I came from higher ground

I caught the cape in early summer

I caught the sunlight, going down

Single form

Single form

Dormitory norm

Fags in all the pictures

You chiselled stone

Made broken homes

Sculpture’s first lady

Your workshop

And your garden

For wearers of Elizabeth Arden

Has become

In summer sun

An annual communication

To exercise with a moulder’s touch

Your work was such

Drawing friends of sculpture

Their dreams to clutch

Yorkshire girl, your strings and swirls

You’ve captivated with such wonder

Available at Amazon

Safe shores in between

Deep, deep ocean

Deep black, deep blue, deep green

Deep, deep ocean

Samurai and Viking and safe shores in between

Was it a mirage

Or a marriage

Were you married

To the sea

Available at Amazon

Plumb, aplomb, and sweet bon-bon

Lunch today

Was rocket and rye

Try if I might I could not buy

Salami and fries

We’re an international audience

The figs didn’t stand a chance

The square rigger sailed, wind full on

Plumb, aplomb, and sweet bon-bon

Wild ocean, sea spray

Dive bomber

What’s that between your teeth

Wild ocean’s barrier reef

Cormorant and cockatiel

Peking duck for three

Old grey seal, who do you feel

Across the splashing sea

Available at Amazon

Lapping, waves clapping

Ripples in the sand

Ageless land, ageless land

Fishing man and weaving hands

Ageless, ageless land

Motor boats and seagull croaks

Cappuccino with cakes to soak

Motor boats and wheels of hope

Ageless, timeless land

Lapping, waves clapping

Splashing in the sea

A pink champagne bikini

A splash of cloth, my ageless mind receding
