Walking through the dunes the scent of gorse reminds me of sun cream, our bike rides to the sea. It’s your birthday today. You would have been sixty-eight. I can imagine you silver-haired, your smile and wit still bouncing.
meditating
the circles and spirals of
a driftwood root ball
the place in our lives you held
still dearly in our hearts

Wishing you all a blessed Thursday and a peaceful rest of the week,
