You are the bird with a whisper
that flaps before speaking
The yellow blossoms of wattle
that grow in the Spring
The hibiscus in summer
that blooms, unexpected
and the hours of shade
that help to protect it
and when I see colour
I think only of you
‘cos you are the rainbow
after the rain
the white cloud with sunshine –
a prominent force
The fluorescence, like flowers
I see before sleeping –
And whenever I need you
I know where to find you –
You’re in my heart –
and I am in yours
