Robin Pratt Poems

Newgrange
The rain is hammering on our windows,
it's changed,
last week it was still warm
...

My dog tears across the ground
digging perforations into the turf
his teeth grab the squirrel's back
He shakes his head viciously
...

Fireworks touch my inner child
That child with innocent delight
Eyes open wide
Gazing up
...

The hot hot sun
bakes
my skin skin skin
irksome infants
...

Have you ever felt a kiss from heaven?
It's a hard to know question
for me
at least.
...

It's June
It's hot and sunny
It's Hyde Park, London, England
Thank the Lord for plastic bottles
...

Sunday early
grey light eases its fingers past the blackouts
lets in the sound
of joy
...

........to breathe,
I lay in bed and Susie says
BREATHE
and sometimes she bumps me to make me start.

A warm September evening
The birds happy
the sun bright
...

A long journey
inside my body
inside my head
