Written in my old loft for someone very dear to me. That first poem…..

 

The seagulls claw & caw the rooftops brazen in their stature.

Wings spread heroically, elevating them to fresh heights to pursue their bounty.

Admist this stealth & stature the hopeful followed by the hopeless drift in & out of consciousness far below.

Matching the ebb & flow of the tide in a restlessness they float in & out.

Froth & sloth in seamless motion.

The happiness brief & all too fleeting.

All is not lost though, hidden yet present.

The pebbles & the lee shore tell the story should we look & listen hard enough.

Many in number much like ourselves, bathed & washed gloriously by the love of nature we rumble with rapturous applause as the ocean retreats to become one once more.

Lost & found, lost & found, we are all here together.Brighton
