Alone
Written when my grandchildren went home after Christmas.
No mess, no laughter
A paper plane is flightless
Grandchildren went home
Written when my grandchildren went home after Christmas.
No mess, no laughter
A paper plane is flightless
Grandchildren went home
Dancing on this earth
We move together for a while
And then we must part
Innocence and joy
A princess in the making
And Cassidy reigns
Anxious to explore
Your hand in my hand entwined
Our bliss awaits us
Reclining on clouds
An angel repairs her wings
Oh fortunate clouds

On Hospital Food:
–
Hidden by plastic
Lurking, threatening the plate
Hospital food waits
A willy wagtail
Sits on a stone Buddha’s head
Buddha is smiling
