Every day a gift
 
Monday morning blues
of the rippling sea beneath
mother of pearl skies
 
Tuesday brings strong winds
and rivulets running down
rain-freckled windows
 
Wednesday’s clouds meld sky
and sea – whilst through the salty
mist white horses roam
 
Thursday’s storms wake me
at dawn and carry me down
to a raging shore
 
Friday brings Venus
diamond sister of the moon
calling forth the sun
 
Saturday’s drizzle
serves me porridge and coffee
by a faithful fire
 
Sunday’s golden orb
soon clothes herself in grey – but
I’ve glimpsed her glory
