Rowan’s rash of berries in December:
Easy pickings for a pair of blackbirds.
Next door, next year’s mimosa buds hold fire.
But the fly by the window-catch is in agony
At the spider’s touch, trussed up, buzzing its last.
Rowan’s rash of berries in December:
Easy pickings for a pair of blackbirds.
Next door, next year’s mimosa buds hold fire.
