22nd November 2013 – chocolate pudding
The spoon pierces its thin crust, delving into the pool of thick, dark brown sauce within. An hour’s work is gone in moments, too sweet and sticky to resist.

26th July 2013 – toys
They bob on the pool’s surface, abandoned. Plastic primary colours contrast with the sunlit, brilliant blue of the water. The joyful babies who played with them are gone, but still they float, awaiting their return.

11th July 2013 – reflections
They move over the wall like water. A furry head turns and a tail starts flicking with excitement. Gone in a flash, the moment for chasing has passed.

12th June 2013 – skip
It sits on our drive, filling up with the detritus of someone else’s life. Their vision of our bathroom finally leaving. A new start for us, their influence gone from our lives.

7th June 2013 – clematis
The frame it once wound itself around is gone. One lonely post remains for it to climb. Yet still it reaches, grasping at thin air, desperate to grow, to live.
13th May 2013 – hail
I watch as it hits and bounces off everything it touches. It makes a deafening rattle on the conservatory roof, like gravel. In a flash, it is gone, and the sun shines.
