Two crows black parled over a substance,
not pondered, a rare truce over lunch to behold

Land Rover’s engine protested, under Adelaide’s January heat
Molten felt I, dripping sealed to vinyl’s straight jacket seat

Bottle Brushes red explode against hazed blue skies
I’m a shutter clicking full speed

Yonder down under, palms a few cluttering prongs
tussled along gusty winds hot, sweeping up the road

An eye side window tinted, lady bugs turned emerald
polishing off aphids, on leaves green smiling
swarming on tangerine roses

Seagulls hina mina rise to plume, a firework of feathers
Ole bell tower announced middays service to all

Splotch landed magenta a drop on the pane
caught through a crystal hung neath the car mirror

A tree Maple in church yards grass bequeathed leaves
blessing, she covered pavements for yards

Glazed and steamed pavements sing and sting
Rains surprise drumming kisses song

Thinking, I am of thee how long summers can be
write once said he, write of me

Clad an artist endless colours on eye tipped brushes
chanting, paint me, painted by thee

Hummed throaty the engine sang, idling
Kissing minds am I, life visions to love

A canvas, a life church to words painted
on pavements, in surprise rain tears

By thee in me
