craven poet
self censured
by social niceties
avoiding
the elegant insolence
of a Thomas
or an O’Hara
looking out
fearing

where soft skinned eels twist
and slide in rivers’ dark depths
oil black otters glide

(Don’t know where this popped up from, not a river in sight.)

Have the brightest sunbeams
Deep thought there somewhere

A soft, velvet night
Somewhere way off and so high
Above my warm bed
A jet’s roar fades, dies

Nest boxes standing empty
How our young ones fly

Today on FaceTime my daughter in Australia and me in Wales, shared a moment when we looked at the moon together. It felt very connecting in these separating times, quite magical.
Of course hers was upside down!
