Stockport WoL Collage Poem: Shades
Shades of wooden nowheres lead to light
Have you got a light
I need light
Instead of six lagers for breakfast
I had a piece of toast
Blood, hope, words can bring peace
In transition a panting breath
birth, life, death - always struggle, always joy
and always always words
Overrated Morrissey sprawls
on sun-splashed lawns
weaving goodbye laced in
lashes of Belloc and Nash
Oh! For a gentle tone
Much like a sparkling waterfall -
fragrant, sweet flowers as confetti.

Write Out Words
Collage cascade of confetti
Sparkling words weaves light
Sun-splashed gentle tones
Shades no longer hidden.
