Midnight lights

If truth be told
At past midnight
Newcastle is
an awesome sight

Newcastle bridges

 

It’s bitter cold in Newcastle
Here on the River Tyne
But from my waterfront hotel
The view I have is fine

Bridges

You say,

bridges are built,

so him and her

could cross rivers over,

in order to hold hands,

even for a brief moment.

You say,

these steel and concrete giants

are here to remind us

of all the forced decisions

we took,

because we had to,

as we march across the cement pavements,

reaching destinations,

A to B.

The Treasure

There are pieces of my spirit
In all that I create
Offers of connectedness
I hope will resonate
