How do you measure a dream?
In feet, grams, litres, brush strokes?
Meters of films stashed somewhere?
Dancing quietly upstream,
With the sharp eyes of an hawk,
Storm of meteor showers.

You feel so tired
and yet you keep on scrolling
Looking for disillusions,
Something new to believe in.
Your life is like a
bad internet connection:
Doesn’t seem to get going,
Sporadic, scattered.
Up or down. Or is it both?
It begins like a Tempest,
With a storm at sea.
I do feel like adulthood
is over rated.
It’s a palette of feelings:
Cows know their way home.
They know when to venture out
When the grass is sweet
then they know when to head back,
up the beaten track.
May has vanished in a flash.
She’s disappeared. Gone. Like that.
Nesting birds
Lost in thoughts
The garden still needs cleaning.
I’m not sure if I will be able to put all this into words… I chose the images above as a way to convey hope, a love for nature and the small things in life.
Our Time Here:
Even though nature is in a crisis, and huge transformations and changes need to happen,
Even if the governments seem to make a point of getting it all wrong,
Despite the fact that money and the interests of a few people seem to prevail,
Over the fate of the planet and the rest of her inhabitants…
I have hope.
~Trying to capture,
These fleeting moments:
Grains of sand, running through my fingers…
Staying still, saying nothing,
Even when I’m dying to.
But Think. Think: Consequences
Before she even attempts
To articulate your thoughts.
Brown bird, on the fence
Say nothing, stay still.
A mindset, a stream.
Breathe deep, change the lens
No sliding down hill.
Life is but a dream.
