... Well, it's been a good year so far in the Dorset camp! :) A toast to you and yours from me and mine. May 2014 be both poetically kindling and kind. xx


Poem Artwork


LOVE ON THE ROCKS

Wreckless, hopefully,
but not without some
degree of discomfort;

the pleasurable plunder
of smugglers and mermaids
seldom taken neat –

though always shaken,
not stirred.

A joy to stumble upon,
seldom forgotten:

Look out, below! 

ah, love on the rocks always has a degree of danger ... one must not leap too far or shaken too aggressively, but then again, i'll always have another ;)

I tried looking at the picture of what could be sheep or rocks on a cliff overhanging the sea to try to figure out what your poem meant. Alas, my feeble mind has been left confused.
