In the Autumn of Life

Liquescent Marmoris
sea-urchins in rock pools – the flesh, a delicacy – sparkle – protected from the ocean where anemones proliferate – by a mist-glistening heart shaped rock: the keeper of my secrets – a cache of memories of mornings snorkelling surface eddy on the periphery —homesick for my roots— a keeper lost to shifting tides white horses masking risk...
