the fruits of loop

~

the fruits of pool  (  loop fo stiurf eht  )

…





the fruits of loop, a solar wheel

a lowland fling, a highland reel


the stuff of bus, the sound of round

the grass upon an earthen mound


a winter wreath, a buttonhole

a sinking ship, a shifting pole


an evening breeze, a bumper car

a sort of door, the morning star


a blooming moon, a splash of rain

the shrouds of cloud & blue again


a howling man, a rubber wall

the age of ice, a bouncing ball


an autumn morn, a signet ring

a stolen breath, a second spring


a spinning plate, a hula hoop

a figure eight, the fruits of loop

bursting

bursting  (  gnitsrub  )

…





noses on a breeze

floating over pastures green

sniff a rose & sneeze


bubbles in the works

spanners, sand & sandwiches

languages as burps


rubber ducks & hens

squirms within a can of worms

whip the inkling's pens


apple bites & pips

fingers, flaps & butterflies

kitchen sinks & ships


rivers on the run

roaming in the gloaming's ghost

chase the fading sun


owls & howling moons

ladders, clouds & passage ways

bladders & balloons

the first of frost

the first of frost  (  tsorf fo tsrif eht  )

…




a dove above, a sprite of white

a skein of geese, a host of crows


the winter creeps as summer sleeps

with speckled steps & twinkle toes


a crunch below - the frozen grass

is numbered up & bags of crisps


the soft is off, the mud is stone

a circle sings, a conker falls


a sort of door, the hinges creak

a blast of brass & monkey balls


the air's a ghost - so wear a coat

a pair of gloves with fingers crossed


& wander on - beyond the swan

a murmur in the first of frost

sun ray laser beam

snort, horse vortices

mud plain paper dream


bean sprout tower top

sandwich interlink

claptrap's carrot seeds

plugs glug, kitchens sink


ink pot puddle hop

stop gap trundle train

snow so, twinkle toes

flake sheikh, blizzard brain


rain spout trouser press

west wind wizardry

pinstriped ammonites

eight's great middle sea


gleam, green lizard lips

singsong tumble tongue

splashback riverbanks

heave that beetle dung


pitfall porpoises

catnip badger flap

cygnus signet rings

i left the window open

i left the window open  (  nepo wodniw eht tfel i  )

…




i left the window open

& the mist crept in


like the ghost of a ninja

or a long lost cousin


through a gap in the kitchen

as the full moon bloomed


so the clouds fell down

like a cloudy humpty dumpty


& then wandered on this land

like a flockless shepherd


in the hinterlands of cygnus

with the signet rings of swan


while i napped on my hammock

in the upstairs airing cupboard


as the broth swish swashed

& the fog washed the dishes
