30 Words: Fickle, or, What's your favourite flower?


In June I will say roses,
in July, sweet peas,
in August it's the hollyhock ...



... but right now 

in March
the answer to your question is

quite unequivocally

the daffodil.


The premise of 30 Words Thursdays is simple...


Take an image (preferably one you shot, or have permission to use).


Write 30 Words about it. No more. No less.


Post it each Thursday.

30 Words Thursdays: Winter Aconite









Implausible,

stark yellow outrider

improbably 
risking waxy nodding precision
and soft imposter spears
against the bitter possibilities of February:

baggage-free,
agenda-less;

yet we find in you

a promise.

30 Words Thursdays: "Words of love"






As tokens

of this restless inebriation
this heady overflowing
or even, 
this contented companionship 

we write
with a papery purchase

"words of love"

enveloping love
consuming love 

on a card

30 Words: A Winter's Day



Windy and wet,
a cold winter's day
by the water,
nothing special.
Yet, as we stood
watching the birds arcing and wheeling,  
a moment of still wonder
crept over us.
