A Jar of Nuthatch

A Jar of Nuthatch

 

In the heel

of a ball

of mistletoe

A jar

of Nuthatch

sang

the blues

While

elsewhere

he drew so

very deep

and oh’ so

very, very slow

Upon his

Marlborough

Then through

closed eyes

he could not

help  

but think

both long and

hard on you ...

Marlborough, I remember those f**s. These lines have an air of the seventies/eighties about them.. I can picture it clearly. Maybe you are drifting back in time. The f*g smoke adds to the atmosphere. I like the birds singing the blues and there is some deep dreaming going on here and some stirrings too if I am not mistaken. Nice little snapshot in time. Maybe it was the chick with the monastery gold hair :)

I smoked those for awhile but was a Winston kind of guy...
But yes...a moment capsulized, a time when I smoked the most...after the leaving of a love...
like this style with the very short, rhythmic lines...

I think that one of the birds is You, and whether it is you or not... this little song of blues and love, missing and sadness is a treasure to the hearts. it touches mine with a real gentle sadness. I love it.

In the quiet hours of the night our minds drift to “you”. Those emotions and feeling sneak in undetected creating an array of emotions

[Neville]

I like arrays of emotion .. I like arrays of the sun too and so I shall arrays my glass and drink to your health PB and sincerely thank you for visiting my little scribble :)
