Small Glass Pouring Light
Shake the frost free
wide river view to shore
road noise anticipation
of the carrier’s cart loaded
with news & print
Bright star above the bay
beautiful & simple
endlessly revealing
Arctic Drone
Winter keeper
on watch
the map line of eternal ice
Hot Soup Time Machine
From afar welcoming window candle lit
with the dark drops the dew loyalty of
French oak that leaves a sweetness
to hang in the valley
Apple offers a different hue combustion
rates matter like the stokers on ships
the right mix helps entertainment like
the shipping of books
it’s in the detail view the flame picture
patterns matter Thomas’s breath
walking the terrace an ambient
background a view to the bay
bells fall silent trace the route worn
thin steps there’s life in the handrails
initials carved TDQ WJT centuries
apart cast aside after hours
the log will cease to flame it will
glow but patterning will be minimal
look to the surface breaking there’ll
be enough of interest
split cover magazine will house secrets
still the bread bags hang the simple
four ingredients the lamp lit sanctuary
simplicity like salt on eggs
Burnt Crusts
What could be more pleasant?
the restorative nature of the air
& the view to the open sea
There’s a half hour queue
the full breakfast is a sight
to behold
the backyard eggs a special
treat from the lanes
the laundry is returned
in brown paper
canteen to the shore
bound for places unknown
