I’m floating with snowflakes on blue clouds
as the main decorating theme - bobbing on
a bright electric-blue consciousness stream
knowing my daughter is happy just playing
a miming prop in TV scenes: a quiet nurse
reappearing later as a background patient;
revelling in my eldest daughter’s plans for a
beach wedding - adverse effects of trying a
blackened eyeliner to be Goth like she is -
I’m dreamy in Delft blue with silver lines
Silver lines, Delft blue blouse, a blue & white
snowflake-paper-covered box holding papers,
cascading white lace folds around me, and a
white-and-silver box for easy access to a PC
mouse - a small box covered with pink roses
& gold lettering, ceramic cat-brooch with pink
flowers on my console, turquoise pen-holder,
tray with snow scene under my kettle, and a
new, wide-brimmed straw-coloured hat with
pink scarf and silver fan on my hat-stand
