Outstretched limbs
trail faded, crisp
tefillin strips,
ushering
the rising tongues
that seek
a fresh bed
of ash
for every generation

For Mitch Browne – ‘Eucalyptus Davenensis’
I loved this poem and read Amity, which I also liked very much. Do you other poems one can access?

Hi Paul,
Thanks for the feedback and for your interest in my work.
I haven’t gathered my poems together yet, so they are still scattered across various print and online journals.
These links are to some other poems of mine which have free access:
