among
the dark spaces of her grief
a fleeting smile
LSA - September 2016
garden shed...
so soon a squatter
in grandpa's boot
LSA - September 2016
autumn harvest
I gather stray thoughts
to hoard
LSA - September 2016
shoulder high
a toddler reaches
to stroke the giraffe

page seven
war and peace
I surrender to sleep
LSA - September 2016
bus queue
two headless boys
with nimble thumbs
LSA - September 2016
cloud cover...
all the sun worshippers
on hold
LSA - September 2016
losing Mum...
the sun tries to teach us
how to smile again
LSA - September 2016
jam making...
I evict another
bumble bee
LSA - September 2016
leading the bull
he wipes sweat from his neck
with a red rag
LSA - September 2016
sibling rivalry
he reminds me I was born
in the year of the rat
LSA - September 2016
diy...
the ice melting
into my splinter
LSA - September 2016
bus stop
an old lady and a pigeon
on nodding terms
LSA - September 2016
tea party
a toddler scolds her doll
for interrupting
LSA - September 2016
overripe peaches
out of nowhere
fruit flies
LSA - September 2016
air display
my toddler points
to the little perishers
LSA - September 2016
sick in bed
the cough and splutter
of my neighbour's car
LSA - September 2016
beachcomber…
an empty bottle
full of Sunshine
LSA - September 2016
boiling an egg...
a reminder of my
hourglass figure
LSA - September 2016
my left hip
missing the weight
of a child
LSA - September 2016
the wind
raising her skirt...
he wishes it was him
