I am thrilled this poem got a special mention in Given Words 2025. It is amongst a wonderful collection of works, please fill your Friday afternoon reading.
I have added a glossary in the comments for those unfamiliar with Te Reo.

It’s been a wet few days, perfect for hiding away, pen in hand. After learning about cosmic dust, I started down a whimsical path. This is where I ended up. #poemsabout #poetsofbluesky #stardust @alanparry83.bsky.social @brokenspinearts.bsky.social

With the aim of challenging myself, I chose the desalination confessional. This poem only partly meets the brief and I took it a bit further than just desalination. Thank you @brokenspinearts.bsky.social @alanparry83.bsky.social

My banner pic is taken from a painting she gave to my parents for their wedding. It always hung above the hearth. I was about ten when I finally saw the lady with her arms around the horse
