     NEW LIFE

Down the lane,
Fat red berries
Beam their small cheer
Along the frost bitten branches,
Pushing the cold ivy
Away from their fire,
Keeping the dark leaves
At a distance.

Knowing darkness always wants
To suffocate and defeat
New life.

  2. A Joan Eardley painting is a gift, no matter how many times we’ve seen it. Glad you liked
    both it and the poem.
    Gwen.
