Venetian morning
Slatted blinds
cast sun drenched lines
that slowly creep
to wake still minds
and rousing them
with fresh shed rays
are angled open
revealing days
unfolding all
that lies before
the fiery globe
swings wide the door

Pre-enlightened vista (a predictive text)
The concourse at Waterloo Station
its mass of symmetry,
straight lines criss crossed by wayward walkers,
who with seemingly aimless trajectory, dance alone,

Sunrise in Roquebrune
In Roquebrune’s majestic light
inland away from sea
we took our rest from flight
and fell closer

With mornings silent waking
our union came as one
our hearts no longer aching
the knot of want un-done
And in that golden sunrise
we buried searchings pain
to view the world through new eyes
never glancing back again

Pulse (of love)
Where did you go
when you slid behind your words,
disappearing?
A sun behind a cloud.
your exiled silence
screaming loud.
Yet,
I heard you still
un-suppressed by your own will
you filled my seeking heart
so much so
you forced it start.
