Day 4/30 - Prompt: KISS 💋

Light as a feather introductory greeting 

Fleshy facial parts briefly touching 

A kiss and a hug setting the world to rights

Superficial air kisses missing their mark

Passionate lips, hot and heavy entwine

A blushing memory

Of what was

Returning to the familiar a stranger

This tiny autumnal November poem highlights repatriation after a long residency abroad. U ensuing culture shock, emptiness and feeling lost is very real. You may speak the same language, but something essential has changed.

One can never fully return to what was and should never want to, but it’s possible to start a new chapter in a familiar place. This poem emphasises the benefits of how lost I felt and often still feel.

I hope you enjoy it and thank you for reading.

Day 3/30 - Prompt: LOST 💫

Surrounded by my life in boxes and cases

Feeling empty like the house

Take a moment to reflect

Nearly three score years and 10

A full circle

Older, certainly

Wiser, maybe

Experience richer, definitely

Was this move necessary?

Yes

Is it the final one?

Depends...

The Queue

Crocus queue by Alison Day

At last, the first day of Spring and there's already a queue in the garden ;)

For winter's rains and ruins are over,

And all the season of snows and sins;

The days dividing lover and lover,

The light that loses, the night that wins;

And time remembered is grief forgotten,

And frosts are slain and flowers begotten,

And in green underwood and coverBlossom by blossom the spring begins.    

—Algernon Charles Swinburne (1837-1909)
