~ suddenly ten minutes of brown light filled the air ~
a golden fly past in wind and hailstones.

There had been a warning ! Birds had been taking flight in droves in front of the breeze. And this little fella had been singing over the way for quarter of an hour before he flew off in the same direction….

before 7
clear above mist
the pink and blue danced
little trees stood
while the sun hid
~
later at 4
the sun
still in a mist
turned the sky ~ gold
then pastel colors
like the morning
and the pigeon
who watched

Sleepy sun rising

Across the field
A castle
The lady wakes
But~
It’s through the gap
Above Nell’s washing line
The mist
The yawn ~

Diary.February 17
7.18 am
put the kettle on
went out to catch the sun
nearly settled
for the pink
turned away
looked back
and there it was
sun like a peach
melba for breakfast
