The unknown arms of a new day.

And for me, there were thoughts of him
And for me, there were thoughts of heels
Clicking ‘neath the creaking chair
That rocked and dipped in the soft sunlight

And as hands raised to yawns
And basset hounds lifted weary heads
To shift position
The moon spilt forward into the heavens
Into the indecipherable branches of the forest

Just outside, gentle curls of smoke
Danced and disappeared into the welcoming air
And, plentiful pebbles lined the way
As if acting, as a knowing guide
To illuminate the path and lead her confidently
In-to the unknown arms of a new day

Beautiful poem. Favourite line’into the indecipherable branches of the forest.’ I could almost smell the night air.

The image that accompanies the poem is perfect. Facing that unknown is like trail. It is a beautiful trail, but that bend… oh that bend. Great piece.

Your work causes the mind to snap to attention and salute- it has just seen art (a rare form of the written word these days.) One finds themselves unable to resist reading it the second time to grasp the full feeling of what is at hand. Keep up the great work!
