daughter and
mother the
same hard face

low sun
beneath the web
the blue of a bluebottle

wheeling above the spinney
leaves and
jackdaws

quality time...
Dad's funeral stories
still making me laugh

all afternoon
my raindrops
race the others

mountain lake's stillness
my stone skips across
the sky

still there
above the stump -
a favourite tree

the physio's talk -
we break half-way
to stretch our legs

indian summer
an off-key greensleeves
stops mid-tune
