Poetry – The free spirit of friendship

The theme for Fake Flamingo’s poetry challenge this month is friendship. This poem is a collaboration between myself and a talented young poet, Darren White.

She brings purple to grey
       braille to fingers
       turns trees to
       chanting dryads

He brings indigo to bleak days
tears down defences
into my essence
to him I am agape
       She is the lightning
       the fierce cracking energy
       spreads her branches
       like eagle’s wide wings

He is the winged horse
muse to my barren mind

    We fly high
    in lucid dreams
    into Elysium
    White maned Pegasus
    gold haired Berenice
    create gravity
    to find Denebola

The seeking eye listens to
dryad chants
