They laugh when meeting
Stances speak louder than sounds –
The cold is dismissed

They laugh when meeting
Stances speak louder than sounds –
The cold is dismissed

Moon in the water
A breath of air through the leaves
Ripples at my feet
Copyright Francis 2023

birds against the sky
migrators through empty space
We all cry ‘mother’
Copyright Francis 2023

No one is sitting
while light pervades frozen space –
the chair disappears
Copyright Francis 2023

a rose flowering,
and there is blood on my hand;
I will not touch it
