Amongst the aroma of café bars and florists Somewhere between sandstone walls silence swept lightly over cobbled street the ocean’s breath sprinkled flavour people roamed with lost tongues awkward hands and face’s blank with dreaming smothered by the sea amongst the aroma of café bars and florists I felt love around coffee cups you filled them with constellations and I saw you fading our eyes smelled flowers in windows they wrapped them into admiration petal by petal fingering them marking a reality to somewhere I have and have not yet traveled Dark Angel 25th October 2001 |

She does encompass that special something that makes everyone want to dip their quill into her inkwell, and imagine that they can write...just as she does. Well done Maree... and Raph? Thanks for being pushy! |

Maree, I might be a little envious of this, but I won't be... This is superb poetry, poetic expression and use of metaphors... Awesome....I could smell the coffee too.. I like those quaint little places...though I have never been to one... |
