Snow for Crows

 Snow for Crows
feigning nonchalance in their dancing gait
highwaymen crows patrol the snowswept field edgings -
because you just never know...

Small Stone 

It won't be the first time
I have missed the boat

Small Stones - Blessing of the Third Day



 The unbearable being of Rain 
 
 it will rain until it stops 
and then it will do something else.
That's weather for you.

Small Stones - the Second Day


Morning Mass at Carmel

The Sisters sang the Gloria
And afterwards offered breakfast
whilst we complained about the state of the world

Small Stones - Blessing of the First Day


New Years Day

Maybe it's not about being happy
It's about being Blessed;
And knowing that you're Blessed
Even when you're unhappy
