Poems
Dec 2019
Hankering
The bus stop
was there,
but not quite there.
Something was
missing. Or had,
perhaps been added.
Buses passed,
all with the
same driver.
That was odd,
but not quite odd
enough to be troubling.
The F11 wouldn’t stop.
Yet, it stopped long ago,
a green streak fading –
a tail of memories,
the ghosts of boats –
under Bella and Bertie’s gaze.
Going back
can never
be going back –
chocolate bars shrink
and the wrappers
rustle, differently.
