Images and words from my walks and interactions with nature and the environment.
a veil of cool wet softness drapes over my resting bones
like a silken shawl
folding onto flesh
crumpling into pockets and corners
frothing and bubbling amongst wilting wash-ups and smooth, shiny, random objects
I lay my long spine across this liquid metal bed
tendrils collapsing as I kiss my oily reflection
surrendering to the inevitable force of an ocean’s breath
take me away
I give myself to you
may I dance with you between the lines
back and forth
across the threshold
so delicate and miniature against this mighty beast we flirt with
and yet so brave and innocent
invincible
may I shadow you as we wade in the shallow endings
strutting towards and away
seeing the near and the far
dipping our toes in the slippery orange glow
sensing the flow of changing light
let’s dance till the moon is high
and the silver sea rises
let’s make this last all night
and only rest with the coming of dawn
