Imagination was the favorite toy of my childhood. Luckily I've held on to it and use it still- not kept it safely on a shelf. Beautiful poem - Good to see you on the bus this morning!
Wonderful.A complete box of (dark) chocolates. But if you could only choose one.....'wore a coat of rain and in that light
stood on a rainbow bridge'
Now that is poetry.
Pure imagination ... may we all be lucky enough to hang on.
thank you all, glad you liked it.
Ah the colourful building blocks of childhood. The subject matter here is absolutely fascinating. I'm still trying to decipher
I prefer your land...
a place of ruins whose pillared ribs
hid the bones of murdered saints
and the beach led down to the sailors’ graves
This one calls for re-reading. Very, very interesting!
i was a (good) bit less obvious than i could have been but i wanted to try and catch some of that child perspective magic. if you're interested all the sources are here

found again in lost ports
singing the old songs, old dreams
And luckily, one of those ports is Blogland!Sing on...
Beautifully crafted images - not that's poetry!
i was sure there was some hidden story to these brilliant images, ah Orkney, even the name is fascinating!
i am with Totalfeckineejit here, that is my favourite line as well...
i've linked all the obvious references for those who want to know more...
