Atmospheric I think you might say
of the beach at Shoreham this evening
with the white of the surf from the waves on the shore
and the taste of salt they were leaving
The wind caught our breath and took it away
as we leant to sou’westerly facing
and a laugh shouted loud at the thrill of it all
was lost in the ambiance bracing

The night holds weapons, battlements, arms
how fat it grows, full and strong, with the wooly
thickness of a coat, and the deepness of a well;
down, down, down we both go, holding hands
with exhales flaring up, hot flotsam on the sea.

A little forest cabin
Just off the beaten trail
It’s nothing grand or fancy
But it’s me in each detail
Sitting by the fire

Inspired by the name of a Matthew Mayfield song
Her name was December
she blew in with the last autumn leaves
swirling red, yellow and orange
‘round her head
She could be warm
like golden lights in a window

The Storm
by R. Saint Claire
Sheets of ocean pierced by Titans
Channeled on Leviathan’s back,
Swells and lolls, crests and heightens,
Mounting Sky’s sulphuric crack.

direful clouds roar in
storm rises – twisting swiftly
wind high and growling

Rise and fall
Rhythmic sway
Side to side
Listening to the rain’s
Pitter and Pat
As the people
Stagger to and fro

The mischievous sea
with the high winds last night
is tossing and turning
and a fabulous sight
I’d not want to be out there
in the chop and the churn
But I’ll stand on the shore
for some lessons to learn

Saw a rainbow through the window
travelling on a train
Huge black clouds behind it
bringing lots of rain

A tree stands faintly showing
Wrapped within a cape of white
Amid the sharp winds blowing

I hear the ocean sing
with yellow skies beneath the grey

Bathed in yellow ochre
as through the clouds the sunshine broke
the sea reflecting breaking skies
as the storm removed its cloak
And settling there for brief respite
although the waves still towered high
we marvelled at the setting sun
beneath a darkening sky

Lost to shouting seas
Found with murmuring ones
Kept upon a whisper
When the silence comes
Snatched when anger’s present
Gathered when it’s calm
Shared upon a whisper
When words become my psalm

It’s raining leaves out there
they’re just pouring down
The wind’s blowing a ‘hoolie’
and the trees wear a frown
By the time the storm’s over
they’ll be naked and bare
and the winter will laugh
at their bashfulness there

The excitement of a thunderstorm
always brings a thrill
A flash of light and then the count
the waiting then until
A roll or clap of thunder
like a party in the sky
The same for when it’s miles away
or really close nearby

Mugginess building
Yellowing skies
reckon we’ll soon be
in for surprise
Distant rumbling
of the thunder
Overhead dark
clouds asunder

The air is magnetic
And enigmatic
Light pulses and throbs
Through the trembling sky
Black as night
Black as the black venom
Running through your veins

a flight from red fires to white ice
touches the story of two silences
one, pulverized in a volcanic storm
other, reclining on a pond of calm

I don’t know if this is the right way
I’m too busy walking in a straight line
I’m not sure if this is my way
I’m too dizzy living in another time
