Here’s my little shop: http://www.etsy.com/shop/lindasarahs

Below are just a few of the things you’ll find in the shop – I hope you like them! xx

on an ocean wide as lovesong
and lit by Monday stars

a man who’s travelling far
he’s dreamt this day for years

across the waves he sings
and meets a friendly creature

happy as daybreak
peering from around a wave
saying: shall we play?

lighthouses and lovers
both dazzling the sky
with their bright sighs
and light songs

rare seagulls are these
building nests from lost songs
and memory shards

sometimes they perch
on the lighthouse
and peer inside
when the keeper’s watching
David Attenborough documentaries
- they’re the best

they come to sea to sing
bright songs as loud as waves
and the sea salt and breeze make their moustaches flourish
and their songs get louder still

He had come prepared:

- a suitcase containing ten miles of sky
- a tiny banjolele
- and a heart made from blossom and cloud.

His mission:

- to win the heart of Deedee Maroon,
who lived in the city of FarTooWideAndLong.

But Deedee was unmoved:

- the sky was too pale (and contained no thunder)
- the songs were too shrill
- and the heart disintegrated in her thin, crushy hands.
