Decoupage Skyline Driving home in the approaching dark, watching the countryside change in the twilight.

1 Comparison of Love Poetry This is my contribution to Valentine's Day: comparing two great works on the theme of love.

1 Strix Aluco A cautionary tale about respect for living creatures. Slightly violent and horrific. Themes of death.

2 Waxing Waning A spurofthemoment poem because I really am sitting at my desk, just listening and watching the winter rain.

3 Sharp Acid Green A short poem about happiness. Written rather quickly...

1 Heart in a Cage It's about keeping away from love because you've seen the pain in others so many times before. Yet another rhymer, so not too good.

4 More Than Colours My first attempt at a poem made of haikus. It is about wanting to regain that spiritual connection with the world, and to learn to use more than sight to understand it.

4 Don't You Argue with Me! An argument between mother and child about items of food that have somehow turned up around the house, e.g. in jewellery boxes.

2 My Muse the Spiderplant Seeing it there infront of me inspired this poem... A small token of gratitude to my small green companion.

2 Among the Circles Inspired by the sacrifice at Woodhenge, nr Stonehenge, hopefully a slight moral about decisions and choices
