he doesn’t greet me
concentrating on his pain

remembering dad
sitting out at night waiting
to feed a hedgehog
#14
just before daybreak
my dog and I sit outside
looking at the stars
#13
early morning stars
sprinkled across a dark sky
gazing in wonder
#12
shredding memories
things I have done, places been
people I have met
#11
below this old house
the valley quietly sleeps
a distant dove calls
#10
time moving slowly
watching the lichens growing
on a country wall
#9
parked in a layby
the rustling of autumn leaves
that old copper beech

popularity
weak and shameless masquerade
the bare-faced unmasqued

my sister-in-law
a dervish preparing food
on family days
