50/M/UK I like creative metaphors and strong imagery in poetry. I hope that comes across in my work.
I am tall - though not tall enough to see beyond the trees. I hear screeching gulls but are they mere Sirens? I smell and taste salt on the breeze. Does the ocean pulse? Cradling my head, I wonder.

The red dress hangs, still. Awaiting your form and flesh - A matador's swish.

Lens of Grief
The osprey plunges an unerring spear with atlatl instinct. Talons slice surf a loch picked of thrashing rainbows Icarus’ folly eclipsed.

...you're a slippery fish; a swirling rainbow beyond hook and line. Dodge well and weave with perfection.

Odes, condensed milk; Reduced, sweetened brevity.

You are like bed sheets flapping in the wind; Snap happy giggles alive with the thrum of Summer.

Reverie
Lung's heaving, Breath trapped in treacle pools. Lake blue lips, quince skin - Larghetto drowning.

Septic Tanks
Dusk… …in the space between jigsaw pieces – lost.

Neural Decay
From the beach We see a Wind farm wave. James calls them Windmillows, And I smile. Now he calls These windmills, And I frown. Soon they will Be turbines - I shall grieve.
