Power cuts
faded jeans
lack of bread
boring beans
potatoes with eyes
cold long nights
coal fire warmth
worst witch surprise
rounders in summer
'til ten at night
smell of tinsel
Christmas time
heavy snow
winter in prime
chinese food
saturday nights
familiar smell
of town forlorn
seasons lingered
for a soul worn
open air pool
trips to the sea
sound of wild wind
a mermaid I wished to be
sandcastle friends
beneath peaceful pier
already a philosophical mind
wondering why return here
rock and metal music
to this day therapeutic
random felted doll house
bagpuss and fingermouse
I don't remember money
but the snowman with smiles
don't remember materialism
but an owl's call once in a while
I vividly remember heavy snow
relentless as emotions stumbled home
Decembered echoes of childhood
frozen on a hospital window
to survive life one must seek daylight
lest cold grief cast eternal night
