...frayed is
the old tarpaulin I carry
travel scarred and streaked
with the beautiful colours
of an infinite sky
that I wrap around me
with a pillow of soft cumulus
a slice of heart warming sun
and lie down
dreaming of you
and
better days...

Hello there fb. Thanks for a positive comment. I stuck three in and not sure if allowed, so may need to take two out. Anyway to add, I met Carol Ann Duffy at a poetry event, quite by chance. Very unassuming and good fun. Regards.

Hello ScoZen, I didn't see this one or your first poem somehow I only read the prose piece which I thought was an excellent take on the competition. This is another really good entry. You seem to write equally well in both poetry and prose. Good luck with this entry too and I'm off to read your other poem. Moya

Amiss with my thanks to you Moya. re your comment "...You seem to write equally well in both poetry and prose..." If I ever achieve that, it's all down to the other talers with their kind support and encouragement, however a long way to go yet. Take care.
