venus



you are my band-stand
as i tie pastel coloured ribbons to a tambourine
that is not quite old enough.

sea birds are never green, unless the world turns
in a different way; sea foam.

i dreamed of a white rose in a canal
-you held a swan that is ancient and lives in a folk tale.

coincidences in black and white.

  2. This is so full of great images that challenge the reader's logic, this I like!

    I would love to publish some of your poetry on my blog Catapult to Mars if you would similarly like.
