17 December 2006


someone tries to capture a moment in the surging sea
make sense of grey white and a distant dark
they are beautiful
just empty and whole
indelible prints of sky
latched on a landscape
speaking secrets
in every soul
deferring a hold on gratitude
awakening longheld stories
nearer the sea,
falling snow forming chords
reading songs of yesterday's evening rain
they mark the paces taken
having to leave footprints behind
by the grass where we let dreams hide
