Paula Stansfield Poem
Solo in matter
Companions in the navy desert
Rioters co-ordinates far stretched below
National flags depicts dual
The evening rota completed
Observing, chaperoning constantly
Bond as if brothers
Evaluation upon ombré sky
Retiring peacefully then.

Paula Stansfield Poem
Labour
Apoplectic murmurs as flesh contracts
Pacing and wandering in haze
Elation merged panic as the gas flows
Time is now forgotten
Life is imminent through waiting bitten lip
Scrunched fist and curled toes
Three wails, twists and reels
No position apparent, no decision made
Nature proceeds, hallucination then engulfs
Gravity descends life form
Transient separation and then…
Life anchors to openness.

Paula Stansfield Poem
July day
A heaviness entraps with the folding of the clouds
Paleness, thunderous, symmetrical and curved lines.
Stare into the stillness escaping the shroud
Look for the glimmer it is there bending entwined
Monitor the evolving motions changing
The nimiety of gas rolling, engrossing even captivating
Slices of flash and echoes erupt
Merged hues austere yet enticing almost bewitching
Panic intense…
Then - gallons rolling, descending, pounding arriving
Landing on the solid and rebounding in rhythm
Grassy aroma, dust fluctuates on earthy mounds lifting
Concave pools forming gushing and flowing
Hush proceeds - the effervescent fizz now draining
Escaping their landing by gulps into the crevices
Drips into the nooks, sills, rails and leaves
No trace just reflective is remaining.
