My View

(Yesterday a stormy day)

Malignant storm clouds
threaten the rustic songstress
inclement veil prey,
shadows crosswise the moor top
now shapeless within the mist.


(Today 17 Sept 2011)

The village supreme
basks in the delicacy
of September’s glow,
autumn leaves tap frigid pane
crows nests cruelly exposed.
