deep in thought
my eyes suddenly notice
the Buddha's smile ... on the statue


(hmmm, still working on this)

spring rain
my son and I watch
a starling gathering twigs

Sangeet

snow again

the shrunken skin
of the forgotten aubergine

juggling with knives
he smiles
at me
(Cardiff, Dec 2005)

wilting tulips
before I discard them
I admire them again
