A tattoo
On my face
It gets me in
To some places
While others
Thrown out
Walking the streets
Some stare obligingly
Others look away

Endless days
Just look upon the face
Of the one you love
Whether warm, soft, kissable
A cold screen digital
Or black and white frame
Tell me how
In many ways
Over seemingly endless days
Though memory, pixels, ink
Lost or faded
Throb of the heart only grows
Stronger each day
Climbing Sundew, Drosera planchonii, the bridal rainbow.
April May
Come and gone
Timestamped memory
Fagus leaf fallen
A longing for reunion
That may never come
New leaf limb display
A boundary laid
Come summer -
A channel crossing
One I aspire to
In my lifetime
Though shifting sands
Will change arrival
To friendlier shores
My own
I gazed too long
Upon you
As perfection
Absorbing
All your weaknesses
As my own
Mist
All those years
Evaporate
With nothing left
To grasp
But unrealised
Fantasy world
Hidden behind
Closed eyes
Beneath our feet
We connect
Tread over my own
Footsteps way back
Discerning size and shape
Tread, big, little,
Human, bird, dog
These sands hold memories
A lifetime of growing up
Scenes I can only imagine
One way road
Fringe of highways
Byways iridescent green
Shrouded in bird twits
Pinging through drone
Of rubber on road
So too, contentment
Seeps into my bones
Like a syncopated spring
Soaking of rain
I glow
Quirky quips, tips and flirts
Bounce from my lips
I know
There is only one
Way to go
Simmer
Just when I vow to never
Wish nor want anything
Ever again
Tell tears never to fall
Shake fears like raindrops
Head clearing, smiles lift
Clouds part only a bit
Cruising slow over bridge
Home run, day's done
Suddenly hear her name
Simmer
In my ears
World peace
If every economist
Fell in love with
An ecologist
Gave birth to
A humanist
What a place
This would be
Love like
An uggboot
Toe wriggling soft
Warm as spring
Rays of sun
Casting rainbows
All around us
A three part song
Fumbling along
Only each other
To lean on
Count the stars of heaven
