Between black spaces

‘Between black spaces,

A hundred matches spark’-Dannie Abse

My little fruit bread

‘Leave…my…soul…alone’-Dannie Abse

‘The heroic couplet’-Dannie Abse

Broken spirit

The struggle

‘He will bring a smile to your face and love to your heart’-Tim Conner

‘The very cave you are afraid to enter turns out to be the source of what

You were looking’-Joseph Campbell

‘A man was dancing with the wrong woman’-Stephen Dunn

Mountain sunsets

Happiness seems unreachable

Far away cousins xxx

The scented beetle in a box of light

‘Blossomy hair’-William Carlos Williams

The crowded opera

Don’t get the birthday blues

You can be happy if you choose

Everything happens for a reason

So just stop grieving!

Birthdays

Surfing waves

Searching caves

Wake up in the morning

Do a little drawing

Have a bowl of Weetobix

Maybe breaky biscuits

Make some shapes with play-doh

Or go outside with a football

Learn your letters

Learn your words

Carry round your teddy bears

Can you count 1-10? Can you make a little den?

Can you pick a flower?

Can you pick a stick?

Can you run around the garden and

Play in the sandpit?

Would you like to go to the park?

Take the bikes and have a happy heart?

Would you like an ice pop?

Have a game of hopscotch?

Or maybe we could play shop

Let’s see a little smile

I have chocolate!

A harmonious balance

In the light of intellect

I feel like some banished fairy

‘In the last flicker of a dying lamp

The shadows beat like wings’-Li Po and Tu Fu

‘The mountain moon is my companion’-Li Po and Tu Fu

‘The pond lilies are like little executions over the water’-Norman Dubie

Sadly,it rains on everyone

I want fountains of the best water

We leaned into a sunrise

With a scent of lilac hedge

Music is everything

To be clearly in love

‘The stream our special place’-Linda Newbery

Freckles of hope

Sequins on a first party dress
