A love in verse

In the Day

Dear, the night’s long gone, the moon’s 

A refugee, the sun’s about

These many hours to come. 


Yet we’re together almost-doors

Thrown open – almost I may hear

Your breathing, you (not quite) my scribbling

And that’s unusual; day’s start and end

Are when we meet – how happy I

To see your radiance in the day’s.

The day shines and your eyes shine and these lights

Combine to show the planet at its best.

My Dream, My Love

And now the gold and mauve and pink

Of sunset fades and darkness falls

And evening crowds and then we think...

Midday

The cat’s not on our bed today

Instead she’s in your room

I leave the curtain so no ray...
