Daily moments February 12 2017
Hope mixed with despair
from my bedroom window
dreams beneath the snow
hope mixed with despair
buried under heavy layers
winter laughs at me
from my bedroom window
lull of rumbling snow ploughs
drifting off to sleep
dreams beneath the snow
fleeting thoughts of blossoms
tulips pierce the snow

(troiku)
sometimes I wish
I was a butterfly
one brief moment
sometimes I wish
one heartfelt scene
and, time would stop
I was a butterfly
one sweet moment
forever prised
one brief moment
bliss
seals the heart

daily reflections February 8 2017
wish I could vanish
while migraine tiptoes away
thumps above my head
thumps above my head
children
know not better
when storms abate
inside my head
embracing moments
embracing moments
hearts beating
my friend and I

like a lover
hair blowing in the wind
saying goodbye

Daily moments – seasons of love ,October 18-2016
Sunday stroll by the river just before sunset. She walks along the park alone; summer lovers have deserted their summer nest and still, she feels a tingle of life, romance and sheer beauty in the air.
dressed in autumn’s best
preening at their reflection
one last time

season’s last mission
spinning faithfully
a spider’s lace
season’s last mission
a labour of love
writing her jisei
spinning faithfully
each phase
intricately
a spider’s lace
adorning
the main foyer
