walking along the beach
my shadow
still young


on his shirt
shadows of clouds
passing


along the cappuccino strip
men hunt
before sunset


boots boots boots
          autumn rain
      in busker’s hat


sleepless night
only my son’s
glow-in-the-dark stars


old photos
my mum’s blond hair
i never knew
