  • Inspired by a lovely post from Southamptonoldlady which really resonated for me. Lots of graduation ceremonies in Bristol at the moment and each one fills me with hope for the future and reminds me of how I felt on my own graduation.

‘Make hay while the sun

Medusa

 

Drifting in the vast

blue ocean deep, where there is

neither up nor down.

Peaceful

 

The calm sea glistens

tranquility recovered

treasure the moment.

Dancers disguised, spring

into action and dazzle

bemused spectators.

Harbour festival

threatened by leaden skies

a Summer dulled.

The tube

 

Empty expressions

sad pale figures lined up like

lambs to the slaughter.
