the shore calls again
sea sounds sing a song of hope
off the summer coast

from summer's long heat
the blood from what has been lost
in the sun burnt grass

under a new moon
You walk in darkness with your
wound that never heals

a lambent snow dream
watching the northern lights show
at peace with myself

They live behind me
the generations of ghosts
They keep me alive

coffee with the cats
sweet sips from the soup-like cup
consideration
forbidden biscuit tin thoughts
a painful sweet tooth censure

Dreaming a horror
the white house garden turned grey
a funeral home
off, checking my succulents
my soul screams for the flowers

a playful shadow
intertwining and chasing
glimpsing a tail

this endless summer
Aloe vera soothes the skin
The kettle screams, " Tea! "
rolling on and off the lounge
napping while watching Netflix

leaves fall in the night
the thrum of the forest drums
wild tribal dancing

a blurry landscape
constantly obfuscating
the images I love

alive, yet erased
cloth denies identity
no voices allowed

an education
imagination and dreams
the Taliban takes

when nothing remains
strong women stand tall with a
quiver and arrows

a forgotten death
for the tyranny of this
land must be undone

the wane of the moon
My past and the present go
a new beginning

itchy from the wind
on the cusp of a sweet nap
insistent meows
the washing machine chimes in
ready for a holiday

Rows of dream houses
Here, today looks the same as
simple yesterday

Inside the four walls
The ruse of our lives is clear
as we slowly change

Constant internet
Increasingly filtered snacks
armchair protesting

A moon whisper,
Don't fall asleep, my child.

Becoming the night,
I slip into a nocturnal life with books.

You find me similar,
and now we both live for the moonlight.

#Drizzle never asks permission. It just shows up and slowly changes everything.

Kinda like regret.

Kinda like hope.

from inside
the air conditioning
tricks us into believing that
the wind outside is a fresh breeze.

hidden away
praying that no one
starts a fire in the middle
of the bush to rage on so much fuel.

for a moment
I stepped outside to
feel the #drizzle on my skin.

unmoored from the jetty
adrift in life's vast ocean
unable to paddle

wandering in the snow
We know the ways of this land
Whispers of war come
We will not bend the knee to
men who possess no honour

on sunburnt country
thoughts of the fairy floss trees
the old cotton loom

diamonds on the sea
We veer towards the shore
fish and chips for two

Dreams upon a snow pillow
The forest murmurs from afar
My ocean meets the cliffs

winter murmurs
across Wickford Harbor

coldest along the edges
where ice settles slow water

a few hearty ducks
do not seem to notice time

no more masts, just light
at play on the wind ruffles

the sun rises over the maple
but will shift a bit left tomorrow
