Night Spinning

for Daniel

the night is the black down

          of a yearling

the sky a taunt of trailed stars

let me spin in a frosty lane,

          head back,

          too fast to count

and throw the dark to ground

throw the dark to the ground - very powerful - the sky is soooooo huge and seems infinite

[Ruth]

Absolutely fantastic! You use every word with sheer expertise in your poetry, amazing!

[Ken Simm.]

Now this is true, excellent, cosmic poetry.

[John Alexander McFadyen]

I am never surprised, always in awe and forever awaiting the opportunity to enjoy the profundity of your delightful, eloquent, intelligent poetry Leslie. This is no exception other than it left me stunned by the impact of its pathos.
