It’s just gone midday
After rapid 50k
Pint of noon Sun, please!

On the Rise
Bright, brighter, brightest
Venus tows Moon to zenith
Weary Sun awakes

On High
Comet lights path
Between deep space and our star
We remain Earth bound

n.b. I would include a picture, but it’s overcast at the moment, so this shot features the sunrise on 21st June, 2020 here, on the north coast of East Anglia.

January Road Trip (XXVI)
Dress of Wedding White
Delectable curves fill cloth
Sun casts confetti
.
n.b. I witnessed stunning views whilst travelling through the Southern Uplands this morning.
The white hills, dark clouds with Sun breaking through dropping more snow in curtains. A delicate show of light and shade was daubed onto the rounded terrain of south-west Scotland.
I have never seen such a magical snowscape; it was worth every mile driven on this excursion just to experience this today.

On the Moon
On the Moon
Light from the Sun falls
Then reflects on Earth, on us
We share this magic
.
n.b. Where ever we are, whoever we are, we share the same Moonlight, the same Sun – we are in this together.

Heard not Seen
It was a day when I worked
With my shirt off
Bent to the task
Concentrating on single stones
The depth, set, fit to the path
Brushing the grey, gritty soil
To fill in the gaps
Ancient fragments glinted
As I weighed up each stone in my palm
Myriad crystal particles
Formed over eons
Compacted, knocked, quarried, shaped
Travelled from where only heaven knows
To a simple pavé here
While the lizard watches
From a split in the wall
Ready to twist away
Hide somewhere dry within
Sounding a crisp trail
As it flicks through the dead ivy
The moment I straighten my back
.
