After the storms, the woods are resplendent, birch leaves the first to fall…
Birch-leaf mosaic,
the forest a cathedral,
stained-glass canopy.

*********************************
And more rain…
Streams, drains, gullies sing
their Hallelujah chorus.
All else is silenced.
(21/05/20)
**********************************
Still so much rain…
Audible texture:
the dark prickles with soft rain;
Hissing black white noise.
(14/08/20)
**********************************
Some great days – but some really heavy rains…
The rain dominates:
swamps the air; muddies the light;
drowns out the birdsong.
