Beat the Blank Page Exercise: May 2004
"This day"
(by Kirsty Bennett)
This
poem 'This day' was sent by Kirsty
Bennett and
inspired by May 2004's exercise. I
love the way it opens up in the last stanza to what can't be directly
observed.

This
Day dunes with picket fences estuary flowers a maple leaf framed in blue
This day I hear cooing mothers cawing gulls lawnmowers a rumbling sea
This day I feel the transit of Venus though the sight of it I missed I know that there sulphuric acid rains scorching as my
tears
