Poem -

colours of land

Tis as if things
Are made for other things
Like the moon
Who makes a bed in the sky
Or the colours of land
When the sailors fly high
Or shadows on rooftops
Who come to say hi
To fledgelings, at dawn time 
When sun is still shy
But we weary of rooftops
For what of their use? 
Cracked tiles and sad ones 
Things that grow loose
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
And fall down

As usual great metaphor, we need to be kinder and more thoughtful, things are much more fragile than we see with our eyes, at least sometimes. Beautiful heart you do have in your poetry dear Marion, one of my true favourite poets you are

Dear Marion, bash a nail or two on that cracked tile. Maybe the tile is useful. For the nail. 
Stay well. Love, B
