Prague Sonata
turmeric & ginger
copper early dusk
along the Vltava
faded rose moon
reluctantly tendrils across
ashened stars
autumn cicada
murmur & chant
cluttered linden grove
ancient medlar
merely staging
poetic lament
amongst branches
longing nightingale
I remember sky
My Coloring Book
always a dreamer
coloring outside the lines
impressionist blurs
countries & cities
imagination soared
Paris nestled
upon the banks
of the Nile
These poems are from Sykes’ forthcoming book Another Country.
