MORE YELLOW DIDNT IT ?

 

shelling peas 

        in summer shade

sat sideways 

        on a sun lounger

printed with 

        huge orange flowers

being careful as i was told

of the sharp sharp springs

helping & distracted
   in the afternoon dearth

      of times hinterland foray

& the sunshine then -

        well it shone more yellow 

        didnt it ?

      

 

RESIDUE

now is now
then
its
gone

sitting here in a workshirt
  crinkled and creased
  like i pulled it from a dogs arse
  i
search 
for the glow
in
our
residue

now is now - now is HOT
then
its
gone - cooled
  and 
  tucked into diarys / stashed in the ice box
  with 
the spilled peas
and
tomorrows
casserole
