Greens and Browns

A green

Ripening, lady light, red, well,
From seed, grown, lovingly, grafted,
Pottered, lustrum long, being kilned,
Creative, energies, simmering,
Dabble here, there, this, that,
Green scented, ears behind, eyes open, more.

A green brownie

Greens, browns, naturals,
“Nice”, “Cute”, fit everywhere, natural, soft,
Blending, regal, edges devoid,
Angels, on mute, trumpeting her name
Rebel pink, to hide, inner child.
A Scottish brownie, small, unseen.
Camouflaged, to excess.

A green brownie searching

Outside, standing, rain, a Baden-Powell’s brownie,
No coat, no arm, no shelter, shivering.
Inside, glass case, majestic, awe, family treasures,
Badges, awards, proud, livestock, breed,
Shining jewel, on purple mink, family crest,
From stallion, flat hat, steeples, yellow coloured, knowledge throned.
A space, card, embossed, “reserved”, empty.

A green brownie searching for

Knowing, yet not knowing,
Away, escape, to see differently, the unknown,
Fabric, of precious values, woven, by other artists, of kin,
To be worn, for life, as own, Mein.
Birthday suit, fabric, familiarised, shrink wrapped, hammer fitted, to protect,
Somehow, unfit-ting, twisted, taught, warped.
Guarantee, date long past, servicebook lost.
Invisible to one, as born, eyeless, to see from far.

A green brownie searching for the

Communist days, rigid, different, a child,
Be, be, be, be, machine gun fire,
be nice, quiet, behavioured, zipped up,
Brownie sweet, smooth, chocolatey.
Twenty plus years, lid closed, no escape,
Ancestry energy, spirit, strong, pure,
Fusion sourced, controlled, repressed,
The Daemon, life’s lust, in chains.

A green brownie searching for the spark

Searching, for, eyes to see, the colours of life,
Teutonic romanticism, a’mist, flea markets,
under green petalled sky, along the Spree,
Searching, for that, that, spark, to ignite,
Genesis, forest fire, Chinese orchid blossom,
To let loose, scream, to colour,
Childish, feel, live, let go,
To give in, to the flow, to the inner energy.
And be your name,
Let the wonder begin.
