December 2019

Wrens around…

A huddle of wrens
scout the back-window rose bush.
The cat’s tail twitches.

*****************************************

Morning…

Dawn light infiltrates
through curtains that can’t seem to
bring themselves to close.

*****************************************

Another storm…

Branches lie, scattered,
the stream rushes brown-frilled foam
to a heaving sea.

(13/12/19)

*****************************************

The redwings are back, hungry, and there is bounty for them…

Each newly-bared tree
flutters in loud urgency.
Berries disappear.
