A Christmas Wish

City lights aglow
Welcoming bright hope.
Christmas peace be with you all.

Ambush

Morning greets the night's carnage:
Feathers still flying.
Purring cat licks her lips.

Pantomime

There was pantomime magic
And sparkle tonight.
Ho Ho Yes there was!

Wax


Waterfall of wax
Treasured moments cooled
To be remembered again

Mr and Mrs

Marriage of convenience 
Wrapped in ice and snow.
Cold hands hide warm hearts.

Christmas is Coming

A parcel arrived
With Christmas wishes.
Now sitting under our tree.
Anticipation growing
As the countdown continues.

Just Sayin'

Red sky at night and morning; 
Delight or warning?
Bewildered, Shepherd.

The Muse

The Gods dripped honey
Sweet and viscous in our minds
flowing to our pens.
Stories flavoured with colour
And rich vocabulary.

Sunrise

Sunrise, kiss the water pink,
Breathe light into day,
Start with hope renewed.

Mermaid Hair

Scalped mermaid hair lies
Stranded on the beach.
a sea full of salted tears.

Monolith

Marooned monoliths
Rising from the sand;
Giant skimming stone.

Harmonies

Crickets sound your vibrato,
Birds your harmony.
Music to live by.

Seagulls


Squadrons of seagulls
Patrol the shoreline:
Engage landing gear.

Electrical Alzheimers

Electrical Alzheimer'.
Computer defunct.
No more memory.

Monoliths II

Granite monoliths
Stand sentry by sea
Jagged teeth against the sky.

New Day

Sunrise, kiss the water pink,
Breathe light into day,
Start with hope renewed.
