Mid life

Reflected skyscapes,

distortions of waking dreams,

muddled horizons.

 

by Scooj

Almost invisible

Standing out alone

in understated grandeur.

Most will walk on by.

Love you

An untold story;

a gift of love? or maybe

an apology.

A bicycle I saw exactly a year ago on a street in Bristol.

Dragonfly

Relic from Earth’s youth

bathing in afternoon sun.

Fleeting adulthood.

Bristol to London by Train 2

Deer in open fields

scamper away for cover

when iron thunder comes.

Helios

Floret furnaces

laid out in regular rows

bursting with pollen.

Allotment time

Here my breathing slows

until no air passes through;

place and mind are one.

 

by Scooj

I sat in this overgrown corner of my allotment doing a butterfly survey this afternoon. My heart rate slowed and I caught myself not even breathing. So calm and peaceful.

Coat of alms

A mermaid and fawn;

resident grotesques adorn

this sheltered housing

Mourning

Three ladies in black;

has the Summer come to this?

or did someone die?

Leviathan

Blue whales arrive with

a message in a bottle –

don’t throw it away.

As part of Bristol Green Capital, this enormous public art installation will be launched on Friday 17 July. I saw the artists making the finishing touches to ‘Bristol Blue Whales’ today. It is stunning.
