Sun sets
We wool-gather
Just two brave butterflies
The flower smiles at fading sun
Nectar

Ride now!
Horsemen gather
Ride for wrath and ruin!
Death shines in our eyes, yet we sing
We ride!

Paper
Bleak labyrinth
Rustling fragile secrets
Waiting for a pen to strike home
Just write

Clock ticks
Sundering time
Infinite fragments
Possibilities of motion
Life jumps

Storm song
Rumbled warning
Percussive thunder roar
Majestic clouds cower in wrath
Tempest.

Rushing
A seething mass
Bodies crammed together
Migrating cloud, commuting crowd
Busy

Collage
Artful masking
Modern meets tradition
A mixed craft canvas to gaze on
Beauty

Endless
Light fracturing
Standing in the middle
Infinite possibilities
Physics

Rain blurs
Red light blinking
Waiting for the signal
A snatch of peace between moments
Walk on.

New Year
New goals arise
But not make a new me
As I am already enough
Let's start

Standing
Poised on the edge
The last point of the world
One step out into the unknown
What's next?

More clocks
Standing in line
Ticks roll in harmony
How long do I have left of life?
I wait.

Dial tone
Beeping faintly
The cord swinging slowly
Resting between conversations
Phone box

Night falls
Silver bell rings
Presents appear. Magic
The enchantment of Christmas Eve
Begins

The last
Rays of warm Sun
Herald the end of Day
Dusk triumphant, claiming the crown
Sunset

Fatigue
Time to rest now
When all is said and done
Dream slow. Climb into a new world
Recharge.

The art is by Ulla Thynell, one of my favourite artists.

I'm stuck
I could fall down
If I really wanted
Running in place is exhausting
I'll stay.
