Dreams of the dancing ping of whizzing balls flurrying back and forth in giddy days of warmth. Let fall fallow rest of paddle and ball until better days.

This gunnel of water punches to water’s edge where fresh meets salt.
It makes no apology for funnelling true as a trench, a determined fist punch piston to the Atlantic, cleaving a beach in two, the separation of sands; this bid to reclaim if but for fleeing fleeting pocket picked of time.

The curiosity of the shape of rocks. Out of the sea it clambers to land and becomes land itself. What do we see, Lamorna?

The kiss of titans hewn of rock and fissure
that embark from the folds of deep time, to alight at the precipice of land and water. Deep time carried in the wind and wings of eras, clad against a window of the brink that corrals all efforts of imperative impermeance.

How did this bale of yarn of flax and sprung pitch up lost on the path. I wonder did it ever find its way home, or did it stumble upon a new calling, snag and snug at its noose, collared to shepherd or haunt wayfarers?

I have always been fascinated by benches, either memorialised or otherwise unadorned & unclaimed. Why do they hold sway in my thoughts? Is it because their empty berths speak of the gaping chasm of a life unshared, & the spectacle of a bench casts a glimpse to another life of nestling, held hands.

What is the truth of a New Year?
Is it a revolution, a revulsion or mere evolution that inherits echoes of before?
Perhaps it marks a reset, a firm end stop that presages turn to a new chapter, or merely a kink in the path which calibrated by a few degrees denotes a press of the tiller pen? #newyear
