have a photo here of up the valley
where they used to stook the harvest

all the family out working the fields

in the evening it came cooler
for rest
hairgrips

at asda are two pounds fifty pence

those from morrisons are one pound

all delivered

ordered the blonde ones though

wanted grey….

we find it when the rain stops,

light comes through.                       yesterday morning

looked nice

 

find it in the leaves scattered in piles waiting for the wind

to scatter

 

hope in the plane flying over

run out to see

 

i found hope in the mountains here

a home, a refuge plain

 

and simple things, the ordinary

become as sacred in our life

and brings a sort of hope

 

we can hold onto

cherish inside of us

 

without

there may be

nothing……..
this morning i find in my diary
that the glass house is closed
and that some sort of comment
shall be afforded.

.this will take place later today
or maybe tomorrow depending
on all sorts of things.
handbag, not fit for any purpose than

delight and design.
painted my outsides in happy yellow
drawn by the name not just the colour

and oh that name come true
on opening jim

is fading now
yet remains as the description

write of parlay

we chatted over manners and harboured edges. these things … moved the line into a place of rural contemplation.
adrift, will the sky at last explode, or will this hate
continue pointlessly, for  thousand thousands years.
numbers that cannot describe each particle of pain.
they captured him because they could,

then told him he was free to go.

as he walked away

they shot his face off.
like in a circus those days

now there are no animals
mainly clever folk being smart
or funny
having learned , the days  will come longer soon. the sounds

softer.

once the day is dawn, the door is open, face the sky, all

comes well some days.

some days it does not, yet it still comes light. the falling

days end.

hello james

you have been gone a while

since you said you would leave


all things change and we had early training here

i spoke of it yesterday


yesterday they came wearing the same dresses

saw the coincidence quickly and were shocked and embarrassed

not noticing the insect in their panic


they may soon learn these things don’t

matter, never did
the sounds

softer.

once the day is dawn, the door is open, face the sky, all

comes well some days.
well hello

you see I did write back to you

in

a different format

more like a letter now
there are several things worth mentioning

to be spoken when the time is right

we slept the unsleeping dream which leaves us weak

offered help we agreed and cleared the ground steadily

found gratitude and overcome with the feeling of it all

tucked back inside early to gloat over the buckets of twigs

walked as usual

it was not deep here

and some still falling

heavily

i knew the others were in bed
and I wished them so

this was a new experience
brought on with isolation

walked to the main road only
usually much further

with practicality
sensibility

turned myself about
to head for home

it seems we always wish
to come back home

james

on another note
we had talked early
about our buying habits now

while she bought blades
i purchased a variety of
nuts

i took of photograph of hengrwt
yes

using phrases like the enemy
it don’t go unnoticed here either

a negative use of language
instead of facts as you say

incitement and riot talking
found not guilty when tried

it is the modern way
to use adjectives that don’t apply

descriptions that come unnecessary
with double letters

and meanings

they talk in metaphors like me

they have a differing task, are not
magicians with a comma

moving on

i hope she will like a bike
and ride along with you
find the chosen pathways
watch the birds and wild
flowers grow

below the scene plays out

with wildlife as punctuation
here is a thing
in that
we trotted along nicely
back then

when no one
said nothing

we thought no one read here
and that was ok and we came
huddled in and private

possibly our way and the circumstances
you know, the virus and now the war

then folk here said they read it
while we were astonished and
though it rattled us

find

we miss you if you do not visit
a while

and we get all our tenses and lines
wrong and have to go back in a hurry

to amend


and self conscious of too many

ands

you see
she was drawn again yesterday with her sibling

though it did not look quite right so

shall i tear the sister off?
hesitate again

look down

regret my first sentence

now

maybe will say it some other time

now
there have been a couple
of incidents but now she
is in disguise
with different
hair
nice to see you here

i see it was yesterday though I mainly check by in the morning
early

sometimes you know
i have no clue as to what
is occurring
here

or over there

find it challenging

and disappear
hiding did not work
for was caught up with
in the lane
asked to explain

talked randomly about slate fences
and temporary miniatures
sometimes you know
i have no clue as to what
is occurring
here

or over there

find it challenging

and disappear
high, mountain track,
scattered trees, country
road.
spend the day , waterlogged
moor, black rooted, bring it home.
all came interesting yesterday
not the day before that just yesterday
morning mostly

friends since 65 perhaps
number of the year ago

then to dispel gathered energies
attacked the borders with a saw
and mallet

and the neighbour assisted
he a slight fellow too who brews
beer when the weather keeps him

indoors

enough done
the clearing

up

starts today

the phases planned ahead

i don’t go to town much now
we don’t need nothing that

cannot be delivered
flashing

nought nought

a sure sign that something
has occured

i will know more when i investigate
who knows what lies underneath

here the land goes up and down

water drains

into rivers
i told him when he asked about dinner
with his sister
we laughed and the wind blew things
away
some places we have only passed through
and if the history were told we may understand it different

than reality

these slower times I find more exploration yet only of the now with patches of this and that to photograph

to lean and wonder

there is a mist in the valley and pink in the sky
the promise of a pretty day ahead

hopefully

as always
moments with the old story,

knowing it will be understood.

each day a moment to be

shared out here.
some of us manage
to be vulnerable as naked
in private

some need holding up
in sight from my window
we look for sand

there is a nice long beach and lovely views out to sea

the sea that is rising
some photos show nothing
while paintings can come

more personal
while the world is turning there is a small hope to always return home
while the world is turning there is a small hope to always return home
each day, each day the suns shines
and we stay at home
pinky glow

she said that it was the coldest night for years

and I forget how many
i was gone all day, and my feet hurt.

i folded tee shirts, was confused with socks,

tried to be good, got it all wrong.



what did you do, bear.



‘i stayed here all day, i don’t want the money’
undeniably tracing honesty in the air
with one finger
pointing

it came clear later..
we find it when the rain stops,

light comes through.                       yesterday morning

looked nice.
