Swamp monster

Swamp monster angel
clad in a cinnamon cape 
applies velcros wings.

Waves

In the measured displacement of waves
a distant quasar is recorded
swirling the channel of the ear:
Yes, it is Love - love on the radio.

Lily

Lily

You were my heraldic fleur-de-lis
but the dictionary says
you were a large trumpet
shaped flower,
bulbous,
that you lived
lily-livered
on a tall stem,
gloomy.

You still send three petalled
messages to me;
in your coat,
in your arms,
the pure white
of freshly baked rolls.

15 years old, 1939, White cliffs of Dover, on a ferry dressed as Heidi, Man in Nazi uniform on the train also in disguise. Both on the deck of the ferry...story.
