In tents, kettle on.

As father sun penetrates
Mother earth below.

Fine fabrics draped in layers,
Free range feet and words.

Threadbare ancestor
Of Eddy Teddy lies hurt;
Once loved but now sad.

On floor of commuter train,
Standing out in pink.

Stored in ageing lace.

Creative flair at fifty,
For kindness and paint.

Around each other's bodies,
Boundaries blurring.

First glimpse of new residence,
Change of perspective.

With maverick charm,
Nick coos like a pigeon then
Admires fine jewels.

Coming out forty,
Season of parties mark time
And lifestyle choices.

Bedroom super man,
With special cleaning powers,
Grease no lubricant.

No longer tight limbed,
Last sunlight fills my body,
Urge to dance moves crowd.

Teenage confidence
Knocked then grows as Dex moves through
Initiations.

Dodging bursts of rain,
Race to make canvas shelter,
Tension and tents rise.

Beamed in on flat screen,
Husband in another world,
Chatting on sofa.

A printed mirror,
For boy who grapples with life,
Learning to spread wings.

Of wildlife eco-system,
Rats win, foxes lose.

Our voices tell a story,
'Silence' glows outside.

Of apathy and mistrust,
Small positive seed.

I edit strict corrections,
While Sara holds breath.

Bring gifts that bestow blessings,
Auspicious kindness.

Sarah Party after glow
Turns dog to princess.

Pack runs together,
Then we rest two and four legs,
Share cheese and olives.

Explaining my love
Of colour to ghetto man,
"I feel it", he says.
