A mosquitoplays violin
beside my left now
my right ear
as if he were a virtuoso
player.
An insect Paganini!
An enormous bumblebee
in a stripped Rugby jersey
sticks out of a flower
(a bum in a scrum) .
A butterfly walks all over
the words I have just scribbled
tasting them with her feet
& suitably unimpressed
flutters yellowy off!
A ladybird crawls all over
the landscape of my knee
before she too takes to the air
with a gentle whirrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! !
Leaving me here alone
this lonely summer evening.

The photo is stunning. And man are you surrounded :-)
Your lyrics & foto dance together!
Excellent!
Wonderful poem and shot!
beautifully composed.
I like that photo, and now when a mosquito lingers around my ears, i change perspective by thinking it is playing a Paganini in my ear. Wow. I just hope it is not a dengue mosquito, which lingers by day.
Great pics of the driftwood and lovely poem too
Great picture,
