Gentle emergence
from the mists of Bodmin Moor
to the streets of home.
My mind fixed on the former
though my body has returned.

Home at work
Unusual sound
baby cries in the office
to mixed reactions
a human reminder in
a sterile environment.

Night sky
Something magical
when a dog looks at the stars
in complete darkness
does he share my sense of awe,
feel our insignificance?

More than twenty four
Static in traffic
my attention is drawn to
a bush filled with birds
more sparrows than I can count
clustered in a tiny space.
Love
The Beatles said that
the love you take is equal
to the love you make
a sentiment I favour
but wonder if it is true.

He and I
I didn’t want him
I didn’t want him at all
but now I’ve got him
we walk together always
with mut(t)ual disrespect.

Chase the money
Ideology
of self-interest and pride
divides a nation
no mention of compassion
no mention of partnership.
