in a small tin
an 'Emergency Flying ration'
the fresh air
sweet as
breath
drinking
water
the virgin
sea
earth to
walk
seeds gathered
the kick of
deer
jump of kangaroo
a cool wind
of hope
a ration of
care
the heat of
fire
the warmth
of kin
the trust of a stranger
the trust of a stranger
a refreshing poem, Sarah! love that piece by Fiona Hall too
ReplyDeleteAll of it is lovely
ReplyDeleteThank you Sarah, this is wonderful. I especially like the last line and also there is something magical about "the kick of deer" - what a line!
