Having read Wilding of this Hagstone Heart I asked for a copy of this debut collection, and very pleased that I did…
I put tags in
Dystopia Presents which concludes…
…
It’s sad, I suppose, it took a dystopian nightmare,
To appreciate the magic in life everywhere.
But it did. And it has, and from now on we must,
Seek out crackles of laughter no matter how oppressive the dust.
And those hand holding hands that pulled us through the pain,
Let it never take disaster to make us reach out again.
Legacy of Life
The Tooth Fairy
Ruby
She thought she’d rescue that cat -
The one who needed to be safe.
She gave the cat a home, a name, a safe place to be.
She took care of kittens,
Who came along too -
Full tummies, warm and adored.
She thought she’d rescued that cat,
But it was she, the cat rescued.
The cat sat on her knee.
She stroked her, talked to her, loved her.
She kept the cat safe.
She was still and peaceful to keep the cat calm.
It was the cat that saved her.
