for the beautiful
the modesty of a hellebore
for the thoughtful
a new idea oxidising in the air
for the deaf
the wing beat of a moth trapped in a cello
for the shy
the close attention of shadow
for the homeless
no false haven, no landlord’s ransom
for the widower
the bridal white of crab-apple blossom
for the ambitious
a sneak preview of posterity
for the lost
a story to navigate by
for the introspective
a mirror smashed by fireworks
for the not yet departed
the sound of snow covering tracks
