Friends of Wattle CreekFor many years, the creek, ran passed as a drain,
Polluted and unloved; a poisoned murky vein.
A favoured dumping place, for household unwanted things -
out of sight, out of mind; and no good what it brings.

Pocket WatchTechnological age.
Advancement of advancement,
Digital acceleration unlimited.
Gifted and pocketed,
This watch,
Dull dark silver,
True and tested mechanic,
Short and sturdy chain,
Analogue accuracy.
It fits comfortably in my jeans pocket,
Ages alongside my creasing lines with wear marks,
Time isn't well kept with...

He claimed the highest perch
in the breeding loft and was, by far,
the biggest pigeon in the flock.

made him stand out
and was a gift...

Lady Blow TorchLong Lost-Godless fire breathing dragon Land.

Glean away your newborn daughter's sheen.
Scumble the villagers, drown out their dreams.
Build plastic war islands- earth devouring dams.

Drugs Instead of HugsI dream about a better day,
And wish my fears would pass,
And I could live in perfect peace,
And then look back and laugh.
Instead, I live with doubt and pain,
And worry every day,
That I will never know...

Marriage Made In HeavenNowadays,
in the world of disposable marriages
it is great to see someone be together
for more than a few short years.
I’m seeing a trend
where those not married
in church

As when we last sat under it
And shared our cherished...

has no wont of haste.
Time has little meaning,
and there is no waste.
One year or a million,
matters not at all,
everything that lives,
eventually will fall.
Ashes turn to ashes,
and dust goes back to dust.
