Dark black grey blue and blood On some Summer's Day Lapping washing on some other shore Gently sounding on my open jaw Nothing moved in a languid pool As I flicked bugs away To the gentle warmth Of a bugs delay Strong waters thrash to take edges from a rock Rock never needed there It was always just a rock Conditioned from history To face currents of change Dark and black In holes of sea In fabrics torn Asunder To see In quiteness Sun gently admits you to it's life or death To be hung immediately or gently It's warmth drifts over you Touching where you realise is becoming hot As your flies beckon you to tangle them in thread To entice unknown beings You felt you knew To a Gallery Underwater That spinning in fashion You drew To a quiteness Drifting in nature Drifting in thought In a still water Running deep Hope you like it. Time I cooked dinner Dave |

"Strong waters thrash to take edges from a rock Rock never needed there It was always just a rock Conditioned from history To face currents of change" leaving me pondering several thoughts here hope you enjoy your dinner |

Strong waters thrash to take edges from a rock "Rock never needed there It was always just a rock Conditioned from history To face currents of change Dark and black In holes of sea In fabrics torn Asunder To see" . Revealing and descriptive. Enjoyed the read DavePage. JL |

A nice respite from the world. Good imagery. Kind of zen-like. Corinne what's for dinner? |
