a warm welcome

 

 

What a fantastic night we had!

 

The latest event in our village's Local Community Group calendar took place on Friday. A visit to what had once been a derelict local pub and which is now the beautiful home of Graham and Farah.

 

The mulled wine flowed and the 'bring and share' feast went down a treat. Regrettably, my butlering duties meant I couldn't photograph everyone who attended but hopefully the pictures below give a flavour of the night...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

the ice crystals cut my eyes in two

 

 

the ice-crystals

cut

my eyes in two

 

I looked from one

and I saw the surface veins

of the last leaves left

 

and I looked from the other

and I saw

the coal-black depth

of frozen water

 

 

 

all that was all that is all that is to come

 

all that was

all that is

all that is to come

 

the capture of time

 

the hands of a child

 the face of a mother

a dandelion clock frozen in amber

the greying hair

of a warrior woman

all that was

all that is

all that is to come

an earth guarded by three muses

a cratered moon

ascended to the heavens

 

all that was

all that is

all that is to come

 

one last explosion

the final particles 

decaying

to

darkness

 

all that was

all that is

all that is to come

 

 

 

in full voice...
