Inspired by the film
Pictured : Aurora Australis
Warm currents of gratitude keep me buoyant
Moving
Towards an unknown destination
Without map sextant or first mate
Adrift with treasure
I am guided by the constellations, wind and birds.
Some days
Freesia scented trade winds swell the
lace living room curtain
Bringing a sweet fragrant Wonder the colour of cornflower blue.
I see it in a smile from daughter, in the Jasmine trialling along the gray pailing fence.
I hear it in a tender nocturne played by son on the piano.
I remember it in the old yellowing dreams creased at the bottom of a trunk on this balsa wood raft I call Home.
