Incandescence (Twelve Poems)


I have curated twelve poems from the last three years into a Microsoft Sway presentation, so it can be read on a device or phone. The poems are split onto four seasons to echo either their subject matter or when they were written. The first two, Nowadays and The String bag were written during this period of lockdown.

The Way

A torch held
Beacon in the night
A promise kept
Shine your searchlight
And map this heart
A course set
Compass stone
You think you want to fly
The way of the angels

Reaching down to you
While you burn a message
With your smoky eyes
Guiding light
Compass set
Under midsummer skies
Carved in stone
Words said
Long ago
Like a beacon in the night
I know

The way of the angels
