Belonging can be
A divided word
Home on one side
Ownership the other
How to become mine
Alone?
On becoming

Through ancient eyes
These trees have seen it all
Though shores have known much more
Safety cove
Dip toes tentatively
Until foam tickles
Ankles, laps at thighs
Squeal and sigh
Brisk embrace of icey
Fingers caress each curve
Cool comfort clings
Loss of sensation
Tingling
Pure elation
Stark
Realisation
Wool-eyed lover
Pining over years
Lost while hiding
Dawn has broken
Over healing heart
Knowing now more
Than ever before
More than one
Who may bring out
The best of me
Silver lines
Fragile
Good bye
Bye is never good
When it is the last
Cloudstreet
Sacred geometry
Upon waking I realise
I am not ready for
The way the world
Presses in on me
From all sides
Until I spy
The spiral motion
Of living things
All around
I feel safe
At home
Taking my shell
Of security
Everywhere
With me
Curl once more
Adding up the numbers
Wins multiply behind me
Cast myself off
From the shore merrily
To begin another adventure
Between the tides
Islands in the sky
A word can change a life
Count the stars of heaven
