blocks lined-up from blue-prints
radiate back late summer heat
deny sleep

Unseen

did you feel
the tide turn
the new moon rise
something shift inside

Sun

this reminded me
of your smile
that reminds me
to smile too

autumn

lone caw of crow
the thinning oak
willows dragging the river
for another lost summer

Dream #n

what was it that stirred me
the curtain catching autumn air
bed-softened lips on my cheek
your bra clip clicking shut
brush pulling through your hair
the nib on the notepaper
the trail of last evening's perfume 
compressed by the closing door
the chasm echoing your leaving

one, two three, one, two
free me from expectation
and let's hit the floor

on the bus

buy return ticket
always a sensible move
choose to use or burn

on cloud

it's been dark so long
but for one ray of sunshine
hearing you smile

waiting for what precisely

something to pick you up

someone to pick you out

one more turn around the Sun

next spring?
