hartfield church, lots of posh oak

i closed my eyes & wondered about all the ladies who must have polished this church

 

village pump at hartfield, sussex

for the first time in my life, i worked the handle of a village pump, & clear water issued forth !

 

I will paint our sky a deeper shade of lapis ...

... & your many rainbows in newly discovered colours.

 

Your laughter will be one thousand flocks ...

 

... of emerald and amethyst humming birds ...

 

Rocketing through a forest of crystal & gold

 

Your smiles will be the flash of diamonds ...

 

... on the singing stream at noon

 

... & hot amber on the sea at dawn.

 

Your sigh, a brazen Mediterranean wind ...

 

... whose molten echo forbids all sleep & ...

 

... tangles my sheets around ...

 

... my runaway dreams

how much is that doggy in the window ?

 

fresh

 

battersea park road ... the nexus of anglo-italian sophistication

 

insomnia

the loved one ... "i can't sleep !"

self ... "is that because you're racking your brains for new ways to make me happy ?"
