A note from Alice by ADAM PARRY



A Note from Alice by Adam Parry

Down, out of the wind
sun glinted upon this pen
spears blindingly
on the whipped water.
A clear view of tomorrow
as the seasons cease to change. An endless summer
weaving though trees.
down here in the shelter
sucking in the day.

Now by Adam Parry


NOW
by
 ADAM PARRY


It spins, spiral over,
roving over, mixing in the light,
the mile wide motes
and the unutterable absence,
places of wonder hove into view.  While volcanoes within
turn us to ashy patina across the world.
It is colours, new spectrums,
an orgy of spring going by slowly,
lifted by a coil of time.

In the cold, cold of space
these nuclear summer times.
A home, in this moment
this moment of now.

...and then she kissed me by Adam Parry


...and then she kissed me

I have kissed her hair
sucked into her air
that fragranced from my stare.
Only joy when she lay on my gravity
pouring out the ache
in a waiting-room that has run out of time
and clocks stood as we waltzed
on timeless toes.
Sober in silence in this new penitance,
no silence though in my eager speed.
Then I saw brown eyes, orange amber hair
and like a surprise she kissed me goodbye.
