Lost and found is my eureka! blog, my rediscovery of my short fiction and poetry submissions published in literary magazines and university literary journals some decades ago. Interspersed, occasionally, with more recent, hitherto unpublished pieces.
After the rain driven relentlessly by a mordantly incessant wind unleashed its double fury on our landscape, the clouds darkly veiling the night-time sky excused themselves as though remorseful of the fury vented unstintingly on the innocence below.
Whisked clear, the winds had only their singular rants to rave through the atmosphere, rippling the detritus rudely left after winter's departure, tearing fitfully through the bareness of deciduous trees awakening to the release of spring.
The woods are rank with upturned sodden soil, the streams run full, dark with clay particulates. The shadows of crows flinging themselves on the low ceiling of air above, cross our path as the birds cackle and call,
settle, ruffle feathers and taunt the season with the impermeability of their raucously entitled presence.
