Autumn

Autumn's green and gold confetti swooshes by damp leather,
Breath like smoke hangs from words, then whistfully fades.
Overhead a steel-grey lumpen ceiling hangs low, expectantly.
Collars raised, scarves tied, fingers gloved, people pass hurriedly
Autumn's here and winter's on her heels blowing cold and blind.

Communicating?

As I speak, you listen, to the words in your head.
My words drift unanchored through your consciousness.
Your eyes reflect my face, but your gaze looks inward.
You nod attentively, hoping I'll be silent soon.
I cease speaking and you begin,
It's good to talk, isn't it?

Mother and child revisited




























Another couple of re-workings on the mother and child theme. Done in pastels on paper and manipulated electronically. I love the range of moods that can be expressed by simply changing the basic colours used.













Mary and Child Memories


This is entitled Mary and Child Memories.


It's mixed media, mainly pastels on paper which I have then processed electronically.

Work by Mark Loynds - "And Heaven Danced"







This picture is a piece of work by a friend of mine.
I really like this picture. I love the casual, yet curious way the figure faces the extraordinary outpouring from above.



The Old Men of Winter

The old men of winter whisper amongst the shadows,
Recalling how each passing season reached out like an eager child.
But now the frosted leaves of evening grip their forgotten dreams,
And the pale shapes of youth fade amongst the moonlight,
While life's silent clock ticks gently on, relentlessly...
