Resurrection in Montage

Dominic Palmer

Star pulls planets into orbit
iron filings shape around a magnet
busker gathers street in womb of sound
fishing boats drag full net to ground

Flagstones burst with dandelion gold
pyroclast ruptures ancient cold
pearl diver surfaces with haul
father scoops up daughter after fall

Timelapse of sunrise, dawn from space,
portrait artist, blueprint, cityscape,
paraglider, April, desert rain,
heart beats again, again, again


Dominic Palmer
Teacher, Writer, & Musician

Dominic grew up near Oxford and studied in Cambridge. He now lives in Manchester and works as a teacher and church musician, having taught in a high school for several years. Dominic and his wife have recently become parents for the first time, which means he is somewhat sleep-deprived but full of wonder.
