Happy 2010

By hob

By hob and not,
with bounding trot
by stricken stride
I bound the night.

The moon and gloom
my silent guide,
by breath and bale
and winding trail.

To light a light
would dark the night
and make alone
my shadow own

Therefore the twink
of dawning pink
will be my glow,
by hob I go.

Midnight

Midnight

I loved you, secretly
like hidden moon loves sun
Beguiled I watched you, waning
waxing when you'd come

Poppies flower under moonlight
nod and whisper in twilight breeze
I lie below them looking up
at blackest sky and starlit trees

Into the void of ocean night
I cast my calling soul
Far as stars we are apart
flying as we fall

Night crickets hold their breath
mute to poppies' silent song
I lie where I once loved you
hollow as the night is long

Stormy night poem

Dearest,
though dreary rains drown you
and morning mists gown you.
Once golden leaves crowned you
you shine fine as when I first found you

Darkest,
sonore and deep browned one
it is the mid of my night.
Troubles run before me
and promises behind.



Dear,
your winds howl gray and jet
your stormy footfall beside my bed.
A lonely ecco rolls 'long the kim
you are without as I am within.

Stamped shirts for De Wolven!

To celebrate their new headquarters De Wolven (communication & pr) had a fabulous party on friday the 14th.
I was there to make live art: Embellishing shirts and knickers with wolvish stamps. Grrrrreat fun!

Birthday invitation, from Patrick and me.

White Fox hat

This is one of the first hats I made. (Although technically it's more like a hood.) I made it for the bookcover of "Love of the Seven Dolls" by Paul Gallico, to be worn together with a fox mask. My favorite character in the book being Rey, the fox.
Unfortunately the hat shrank dramatically in the washing and is now a doll's hat, which is actually kind of fitting.

Lost Autumn Queen

On my lands I have let famine fall,
I have let winter reign.
I have let ivy lie,
likewise web and rust remain.

Now I have returned,
footloose, new bridges burned.
I am come home, to her,
that once I had unlearned.

The lost Autumn queen came home again,
she flew with geese by starlight.
Acorn and chestnut called her name,
as did rain and flame and twilight.

Cinnabee, the shaman.
