Presenting four new seascape paintings featuring Little Guy, accompanied by four new poems.
Old me
New me
Bitter soul
Sweetened
Old you
New you
Shallow thoughts
Deepened
Diving in the cold waters of memory
Drifting on eggshell blue waves
Through the twists and turns
Of oceanic currents
Until, washing up on unknown shores
All fears are drowned by joy
Whilst salt dipped toes
Paddle in foam topped shallows
Around the headland
The forest beckons hopefully
As speckled foxgloves glow
Like skin, kissed by summer's breath
Interacting with nature
Silently
Without movement
Or judgement
Allowing the sounds and smells
To become part of me
Soothing tension
Releasing frustration
Lights reflect truth
Of shared atoms
Chemical reactions
Heal disconnections
In the dead of night
I wait
Alone with my thoughts
Silent
Repeating conversations
In fear
Can you hear
The noise of my worry
Of what I said wrong
Of where I overstepped
Of ... everything
Anxiety rages
Leaving lies in it's wake
Creating doubts and dismay
Yet come what may
I find a way
To welcome a new day
