Time Change

Complete the lie:
turn your sundial
back to north;
pretend the world
caught up.

Turn around and seek your own shadow, for in it, you'll find far more rhyme and reason than this incessant changing of clock hands.

Darling man for you I'll even change the colour I appear in, but let's face it I am still very pink. Love your poem, and as always you hit the nail on the head.
Take care darling man, and keep writing your beauty always
Love and warm stuff

Hi darling man, the Blushing bride is still blushing, and I have some lovely pics which I'll send you if you want. Write to me and let me know please.
I still say this is one amazing poem, why oh why couldn't I have had some poets like YOU to study in my course, what do I get but Basho and oh so incomprehensible Haiku. It’s incomprehensible to me anyway, and yes I know I can’t pick and choose whom I get, I only wish I could.

Genius. This is just perfect. This should be available for everyone to read. I'd love to put it on billboards and see people's reactions. Cheers   - Ed

Yes it's me...

There are times...(that word again)...when
