25 February 2010

the children giggle in fields of sand
their parents converse on the edge
nothing but happy sounds

quiet rustling sheets and the
shish
of dry skin on dry skin
the old couple snuggle
in Sunday afternoon nap

two young friends
walking step in step among
brown puddles of slush
splash
ugly setting for the life they begin
together on this day

wind whispers in my ear
a distant voice floating inside
singing
'close your eyes
shut your mouth
hold your breath
and listen'



Colin and Co.
