Junicho : Withering Wind

       

withering wind…
a cafe’s billboard
takes off as we eat

frank williams    

wary of new taste
she declines the chilli

diana webb    

during the night
another condemned house
slides into the sea

fw    

sunlit white pebble,
picking up the moon

dw    

buying black grapes
to make my annual
batch of wine

fw    

a little Buddha
part of their 'still life'

dw    

today the retreat’s
a quiet flurry
of activities

fw    

stunning him at the June ball
in that feather boa

dw    

slightly faded
our wedding photo
on the wall

fw    

with an old cloth
I shift some memories

dw    

apricot blossoms
speckle the wet dog
from head to tail

fw    

the courtyard fountain
turned on once again

dw
