jazz garden
touched by morning light
exchange of bird song
to an ice white moon
reluctant to slide
under you
impossibly blue
jazz green hippos dance
in surplus trees too
whisper wake awake
jazz garden under moon
white sheets songbird
longing twice renewed
one tracery one true

Ice white moon – it’s rare to find a new way to include the jewel of the night sky in poetry. You’ve done it and I love it.
This poem is quiet music. And that’s a good thing for my Sunday afternoon.

Oh WOW! The colours, the sights, the sounds, the feelings and that certain kind of ‘charged atmosphere’ which resonates through the air – you have captured everything so wonderfully well…

Lovely, it seems you have been listening to a lot of jazz later. Go with the guy who plays the longer sax not the chet baker alto one. Go with rollins, marsalis, and a millon on. But if you are planning to keep playing in the jungle, take good care of the instrument cause hippos can easily brake them

Gorgeous — musical, lyrical. I can hear the words singing in my mind as I read.
