A ghostly shade...

We war with impunity

And weaponise such things as the 
beauty of flowers

And all for what ?

When come today we have to guard the statues and Cenotaph that commemorate our fallen heroes

Only for them to suffer...

When a precedent-busting pandemic is palling around the world 
when its concomitant panic and pain freak out

Welling up in your chest, embarking on the sparkling quest
To eliminate and waste opportunities to progress as you ride

That he was incredible, self-effacing creature
Merely trying to unravel mysteries, roving in people's lives
And share tales from forgotten planets

Like hero born out of poverty, wearing Crown Jewels

Trees In Spring

Beneath the trees, gazing up, I see,
Branches reaching skyward, sprouting leaves,
Filtering rays through the canopy
That cause my eyes to blink breathlessly
From the mosaic prism, colour scheme.

needs no defense, 
adorned with self love, 
its own recompense. 

Identify appreciation 
for gifts received -
