With shadowy pen I write,
    Till time be done,
        Good news of some strange light,
Some far off sun.


I like your tattoo Rachel

It has unusual colours

You like me full stop Ray

Is that a bad thing

No not at all

It polishes my ego

If I had an ego


The tattoo are these your words

No I am not that clever

I have another tattoo

Just above my ankle

Lines for a Sun-Dial

That is the title if the poem


What is its meaning

It has various meanings

Where are we Ray

Beside a swimming pool

How many suns are in the sky

Just the one I would expect nothing else


That is a common mistake

As there are many suns in the sky

I can only see a single sun

There are many suns

Within your gaze

They are as real as I am Ray
