Poem Category: Miscellaneous

her hands brush over
her favourite scent
lilacs at the gate

draughtsman’s drawings
what excitement as rooms
appear on paper

glowing
in the fresh orange light
white climbing roses

a fire-side novel
the stabbing murder
released with the wind

grandfather’s clock
chiming at
our fingers in ears

the face slap
as a branch passed him
young axe-man

overnight snow
our house dog shows off
her joys

writing by the river
a haiku begins
the flow of water

school boy
the puddle a short cut
then again

winking and blinking
a river log
to the falls, to the falls
