When I was checking it out, I found a number of readings and refrences to myself on the Internet! Wow - I'm on YouTube without knowing it - and people have published links to my poems without my knowledge, I'm not in it for the money, so I suppose they do me a favour - but politeness would have been nice.

red poppies
lean into steam
off the wet path
in the fernery
fingers press sweating glass
fierce heat fades
evening twilight glows
a pink line
a fly stumbles
at a water glob
folding clothes
she drinks dark coffee
moon observes
the grasses seeding
green fruit swells above
midnight light
on watered garden
goat dung smells
four pink peonies a gift
sheets need washing
remembering

worm
Let’s end with one to smile at. Worm comes from the Old English wyrm, which is related to the Latin word vermis (“worm”), as found in such words as vermiculture and … vermicilli! (Think about it.)
Language proves we’ve had a way to talk about these rather innocuous, low-profile creatures for a long, long time. But, while worm could refer to the long-bodied wrigglers, it also could mean “Andrew Burkehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13667691610987101902noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8437877.post-45485615388423502592022-11-24T14:11:00.001+08:002022-11-24T14:13:22.450+08:00Cream Farewell Concert 1968 (Complete in Real Time)Andrew Burkehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13667691610987101902noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8437877.post-48405290794684341012022-11-15T21:24:00.000+08:002022-11-15T21:24:11.486+08:00Galway Kinnell says ..."It’s the poet's job to figure out what's happening within oneself, to figure out the connection between the self and the world, and to get it down in words that have a certain shape, that have a chance of lasting."
