writer. maker.
I could sit here all night
and listen to the falling of rain outside.
I am meant to be reading
but keep getting distracted by
the scrape of new furniture
along the floorboards next door,
by this outrageous rain
that soaks with no apology.
We have new neighbours,
the children sleep,
he has found a cellist, so
all is well just for now.
