The Deer and the Labyrinth
Found Poem

A deer ran
from under the trees
across a field
to the woods beyond.
I took some photos
which showed what I had not seen
somehow, a labyrinth...
the evening light on the grass
a cloud of brightness
on which the deer can seem
to float over the labyrinth.
Let that be our offering for today...
Randomness

It suddenly rained
After a day of sun.
The garden smelt green.
There was a flock of pelicans
Flying over the freeway
Wattle bushes in flower –
Traditional mimosa-balls.
The full moon was rising
Pale yellow and transparent
Through the pink and blue
Of the Belt of Venus.
My lawn is shaggy with weeds.

I ... entered the poem of life, whose purpose is ... simply to witness the beauties of the world, to discover the many forms that love can take. (Barabara Blackman in 'Glass After Glass')
