Spring Gleaning<\/span>
 <\/span>
Pinos Genil is bloomed out bliss<\/span>
donkeys grazing beneath scents<\/span>
folded ducks by languid waters<\/span>
little houses perched on rocks<\/span>
 <\/span>
There is no hand in mine today<\/span>
and the sun casts no shadow<\/span>
 <\/span>
I am a breeze blown feather<\/span>
arriving, moving on \u2013 arriving<\/span>
 <\/span>
I take the dust bath of scooters<\/span>
I chew the silver line to Granada<\/span>
 <\/span>
Pink blooms encrust the trees<\/span>
ducks blink lazy water<\/span>
 <\/span>
There is no shadow on donkey's eyes<\/span>
there is no hand top grip<\/span>
 <\/span>
Wishing I could catch the scent<\/span>
and bloom like that alone.<\/span>


\u2022 Dave Migman says “As for myself I am a nomadic type. Constantly moving. Currently in Edinburgh but was living in Spain, before that Glasgow. For a living I carve & engrave stone (Celtic, Pictish, Viking, Neolithic designs, thousands of different designs), this enables me to make money in the summer and get away for the darker months. My writing has been published here and there in the UK over the past five or six years. Some work online. I also do a lot of artwork\/illustration, samples of which you can view here <\/span>http:\/\/migmart.blogspot.com\/<\/a><\/font><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
