Morning Poetry 30th December 2015

welcome
from the vicar
he expects her to be
more evangelical than ag-
nostic

sun-glittered gulls
soaring in a high wind

old dog
losing his sight and hearing
and sense of taste
meat treats become unappealing
extra-strong cheddar, please

cortizone cream
for his eczema
it terrifies him
but rubbing his back
is reassuring
and he enjoys it
puppy mode

home visit. Everybody can panic now.
