Poem Of The Month: October 2012

For October's Poem of the Month, I have chosen the poem Drifting by Kerrie O' Brien.

It is taken from her collection Out of the Blueness.

drifting

there is talk in the air

but it lowers

as the light disappears

and the colours

explore the room

pink in the blue in the black

disguising themselves

everything is moving

slightly – like so

but we remain still

new in the dark

pulled in and glittering

I know you most in these hours
