Flora

You used to be fine, to drink for fun, laugh an estuary wide, no need for tea, humour lachrymose, jokes your repartee, now that you find, hearing water run, you need mor time, if rain starts to cease, stuff carries on, depend on that certainty, speak when it’s right, never shout and jump, what keeps for a while, voyage to the deep, hide it from the sun, don’t lose your dreams, where is the line, seeking love that runs, mountains to climb, before coming home?
