Unpolished Ink May 2021
Paintbox colours make our world
grey and clinging fog of disbelief
echoed by the indigo of grief
bitter orange wheat of rage
before we finally turn the page
accept the solid yellow ochre of finality
and begin to paint ourselves a new reality
Unpolished Ink May 2021
Under darkened skies
Hope is our new horizon
Always up ahead
Unpolished Ink May 2021
Midnight is a blade
cutting the cord between tomorrows
Midwife to the newborn day
Unpolished Ink May 2021
Ants on a dry leaf
conquerers and pioneers
sailing the puddle
Unpolished Ink May 2021
Long empty spaces
fill with echoes of time passed
deafening silence
Unpolished Ink May 2021
A fallen idol
is a wounded bird which sings
and tries to fly on paper wings
Unpolished Ink May 2021
Frog on a lilly
white flower fragrant and sweet
happy hoppy frog
