Second Wind

After a break of about ten years - I am tentatively back to writing some poetry. I'll add it to this site as I write and any comments/constructive criticisms would be most welcome.

Ten Cats and a DIY Investigation

It must be around here somewhere though I don’t remember putting it down and I’m sure I wouldn’t have given it away admittedly I can’t remember when I had it last

Ajar

A man hovers by a hosptal bed Looking for life amongst the dead A girl stands in a crowded street With heavy heart she admits defeat A boy sits amongst the rubble

Origami Chameleon

An origami chameleon She lay under the porch Red, white and blue as the Atlantic or the Tyrol sky With 2 down please note There are only 7 left to go...

Inside (For Haiti)

She lay on the bed. A hand strayed to her tummy. She could hardly believe it. After years of cradling the unbearable lightness of her desperation she hardly dared hope.
