Philip Preston Poet Free verse

A view from a high place

On a pink cloud
Smoking a watermelon cigar
Fields of skateboard wood and rainbow flowers
Children digging blue holes in purple sand
Skeletons carving bone into dust
Sun like a sweetened lemon
Sky like orange wax melting on a sheet of blue paper
Seagulls dive down into shallow pools
Starfish sing
Blood red coral calls 
Golden birch wood fires
Sacred eagles
Sea shells full of fish
Mushrooms sprout like hair
Play drums of animal skin
Eat meat of fish heart
Smoke clouds of green
Glory to The Frog and The Loon
Their crest on the horizon
Glory to The Frog and The Loon and Man
