And so it goes...

Amid the silver, churning mist enveloping my yesterdays
a memory hides,
shrouded in midnight blue above the nimbus of gold at the horizon
it torments me, splaying my anguish
on the sand


Crystalline, the white-capped waves
tease the last, long,  fingerlet of light

I struggle to see you through the rain
between here and there,
then and now


As the corona dwindles in its lingering descent,
resurgent, amplified longing shows itself
on my trembling, outstretched hand
reaching through the stinging, acrid cold that remains

in the wake of us

    words being paint, ye 'ave one hell of a paintbruch. the use of the colours, and words as 'splaying' gave movement and depth. ye made this breathe. i somehow saw miself on a deserted beach, no' a thing but a drink and i... and the bitterness as it sumk in mi throught, the lonlyness of windsweped dunes of white white sand. stunning picture...
