30th June 2007


Dogs tumble and play,
Jaws wide like teenage kissing,
Awkward teeth clashing.

Kezzie and Pickle
Cavort in the long grass then
Pick seeds from their fur.

Squeezed from Leela's day,
Time to share head space and walk,
As squaw in the world.

Inspired to observe
The daily performance of
Nature's opera.

Doing what Mum asks,
I struggle to be selfless,
Fetch water, chop wood.

Social encounters -
Dog and human friendships grow,
In wild windswept marsh.

Gossip from Ambridge,
While shirts emerge crisp from iron;
(Still in pyjamas).

Olga hugs to chest
Domestic drawing of us,
As golden handshake.

Delicate bloom fades,
I wade through tasks but list grows,
Rain taking its toll.

Diligent daughter,
After a day of noble chores,
Relief to just sit.

Day claimed for myself,
To dig weeds and watch insects,
Caressed by the breeze.

Finding connections,
Our journeys go in circles,
Words holding meaning.

Perfect peas released,
To throw into salad with
Fresh mint from garden.

I struggle to lead,
Thighs grip powerful body,
In tango with horse.
