There is something in me which cannot stand
A long poem, the way the oak apples
Fall on seeding nettles, the fact
That Basho went further than the rest
& he travelled on foot
the wind
Scatters itself over the ragged stones
Of Northumberland, I am
Alone, it is
Enough

Miracle, feeding
The bark with light
From the darling buds
The sap descending
To the veins of root
Through you we give
The name of rowan
Maple, we give

Leaf, the wings
Of the seed
Returning simply
By the turning
Of the ordinary world

IN THE SKIN HOUSE
There is the skin house
& there is a reason
for all this goo, sweaty
bits, either too big
or too small
It means we can walk
breath, sitting ourselves
into a balance, the feeling
of the earth, any
sentimental search
For the cliché
of being human, all that
is forgotten when joy
goes into happiness, when
the body is breathing

The rain makes tiny circles in the water, a mass
of wild garlic, cuckoo flowers, seeming so hardy
so shy & delicate, protected by ash
A robin flits among hazels, the rain
thickens, creating bigger circles, water
becoming water, the circles merge, become each other
This spring we could drink from, also the soul
of this place, a thicket of willow, blackthorn
separates from the field, years later, miles away

Reading a book about the influence
of Zen on Japanese culture
no poem
Looking at a picture by Niten, early-
17th century, a shrike
on a dead branch
no poem
How wonderful it is when the poem writes itself!
it takes over, it surrenders
completely, it bows to the void
victorious, it is the caterpillar
crawling up the branch, the colours
of the black-&-white painting
start to sing

past the willow
has come to an end.
Slow brushing
his golden fur before
we drive him to the vet.
His last meal -
a lamb chop
quickly gobbled.
Sun glinting off
our long black car -
his head bobs up and down.
From the back seat
his whimpers
pulling at my heart.
He gives me his paw
over and over,
and then his name is called.
"Such a good looking dog,"
even at the moment
of death.
His panting stops -
a year of seizures
also gone.
Euthanasia -
consoling me,
classical guitar.
The retriever who pranced
through our neigborhood
now at one with the Golden Light.
Silence greets me
as I walk into
the house.
Cleaning up -
finding his frisbee
under a chair.

somewhere to stop for a while, where there is no wind, no rain, but often

be
praised & blamed as poems

Watching Thomas
I sometimes watch you when you do not see
In an armchair, relatively huge, enveloped
By the words on a page you cannot understand,
Yet wrapped in the arms of communication.
Almost motionless you sit in an instinctive
Anticipation of a time when the key will turn
Setting you forever free
Showing you what it means to be
Human, unique and alone.
You will grapple with ideas,
When life gets too much or not enough
You will escape into fantasy
Inhabit for a time, another person's dreams
And return as and when you choose.
You will be your own person then

i kept a promise to myself
i shall never love but one man
in my life
so if you fail to return
i shall close the door
of my heart
and never love again
but if you return
i shall catch the sun
and hold it tightly
on my palm
maybe someday
i shall give you

POEM FOR JOY, BEING A PERSON
Wood pigeons cooing into the cool of the morning
Blue sky shimmering fresh between birches
The details of the dew on each leaf
Our daily task, to fall in love
This cutting of ragwort, bracken, thistle
The annual ritual of scything
An excuse to be joyful, something to do
In order to be whole, "they stayed asleep
So that we would find them", this purple yellow
