Poems:         Christmas Day: wind, colour and sky  Christmas Day: wind, colour and sky  Shifting sands of the thoughts Uncovering places forgotten Imagining ones new Sunshine at the turn of a millennium Animals running through the incoming waves Smiles to the horizons Just a short walk from  All this pleasure In a town that relies on leisure The world still hangs by a thread, Combustion engines demand more green But here you can forget it Leave it unseen Cover the dark thoughts  Like the snow does Ben Wyvis Be greedy Ignore the problems of Mother Earth Here the planet suffers so little Here, where flowers come so soon Escape visions of doom Be a child again Float with the birds Shine like the jewelled eyes of seals Leap like a dolphin Enjoy every grain of sand Leave those questions on the wind   January 2000 Poem index My Home Page
