My stories

The Traveller

Glint with lonely light glowering through emptiness Smile at faded past receding into photographic stillness Cry at emerald jewel floating lost somewhere far away

Worulde

Crimson balloon hovers motionlessly over icy pyramids As stars shimmer in the blank eternity of sleep Bluish, harsh light Strands of hair forever rotate over amorphous whiteness

Sleepwalker

Lying in the dark I rose and crept to you Waded through dawn’s blue light to your room Where infant sowers of morning strew Seeds of day in the silent, sleepy gloom

Coronation Postponed

I dreamed last night we were ready for the crowning of a king We sat, silent and shivering, in a cathedral's massive bowel Expecting the roar of a thousand voices, for a country's bells to ring

Moving

Thoughts on moving home...
