Paper | Jenny Middleton

leaves paper the sky; spreading hands shielding
the blaze of a sultry day from the tinder box
crumble threading our journey through the trees
as pages turning diary like to once before
when youth’s lantern faces gleaming
we shone with song more deliciously ardent
than the apple buds’ danced imaginings.
the circle full, the trunks sawn and strange,
pressed to a paper of our own printed work
where we write of that day’s woodland walk
and those fierce rent wandering words
fixing forever breathing, igniting whole
the flame leaping blaze of those tiger thoughts
of that shady sunned apple grown afternoon.

Music | Jenny Middleton - Contemporary Poetry Website Featuring Notable Poems

Music | Jenny Middleton

Slashed as paint ripping wild the canvas
of its confines you woke the room,
your music a stringed surge reverberating
the grey.
Around the round words your lips move
as delicate as geraniums drift,
as electric panthers wag
the tangle of minted night.
owning us more than angels
and the very lyric breath
of each plucked, pink note
is a danced destiny.
