Beneath winter’s barren hedge
daffodils push to trumpet golden glory.
Beneath our outward, “I’m fine thanks”.
minds and hearts hide secrets and pain.

They’re coming
with their brightness
poetic licence
forward thinking
hopes for spring.
Let’s not forget
it’s now they’re blooming
in wind that’s cooling
using strength
we should admire,
while we sit huddled
by the fire.

Lithops
split, divide
continue to grow
side by side together.
Family.

My poem ‘Shin-rin yoku’ has been accepted for the anthology Gazing at Gaia which is being published to raise money for Manchester Buddhist Centre.
A bright spell among the darkness of the nasty virus I am struggling with at the moment.
There has often been a little confusion here as some of my work is published under the name of Elaine Morris and some Elaine Patricia. From here on I shall be Elaine Patricia. Thank you Libby for highlighting this problem.
