‘Spring Shower’ first fell into place two years ago this week – this its first time at the Cafe.
…..
Red kites ever circling
crapping on the washing
big birds no argument
quick cycle re-hang
damn it now it’s raining
Doves on the fence
at it don’t they ever stop
clouds rung dry again
washing takes a tumble
irony sinks in
Robin there’s always one
beak points to wet soil
kneel and trowel obediently
red breast a foot away
sun kissed distant memory
