Downpour
from the Blue Book
downpour
the melody of raindrops
on the leaves 143
downpour
the melody
of raindrops 143A
scattered clouds
calls of twilight birds
fractured 144
wisp of cloud
the stray breeze
on my cheek 146
petunias
shade from the pot
not enough 147
golden bubble
the universe revealed
to those released 148
horse and cart
farmer with his produce
feels the road 149
paper wasps
hoping home
is far away 150
crooked picture
fragrant lavender
on a lean 151
childhood memories
my favourite book's
dog eared pages 152
green aphid
fatally mistaking me
for a rose 153
drought
weary dog
bites at flies 154
mountain aria
the manuka bees sing
a working song 155
mountain aria
manuka bees sing
a working song 155A
lake cottage
the slim shadows
of beech trees 156
distant cliffs
in the water
twice as high 158
circling winds
pigeons change
rubbish bins 165
gutter leaves
the attraction
too much 167
heavy rain
the shine on the car
renewed 169
autumn rain
signposts point
into mist 171
this week
autumn autumn
autumn winter 172
dark clouds
waiting for the world
to close in 173
winter mists
the world revolves
around me 174
autumn apples
leathery skin
so sweet 176
autumn wasp
hitches a ride
on the bonnet 177
leafy gutter
resisting the rains
first push 178
steady rain
recalling the past
in the fire 179
summer drought
more rocks in the lake
for the heron 180
