I caught you at something yesterday -
Did you catch yourself?
I say this because I love you –
Because I can’t bear to see you stoop.
...
We are the shadow of an angel
Moving out across the land.
We are a foaming crested wave
Breaking in toward the sand.
...
I slipped momentarily between two dreams;
It wasn’t painful but I was aware.
...
A feather floats softly down from somewhere high in the rafters;
You pick it up and stroke it.
Its delicate fineness is remarkable;
Also its resilience and spring.
...
Hello world! I see you smile
with the toothy gaps of a six-year-old
As I cast a sidelong glance
Between the rows of supermarket produce.
