Simon Stafford Poet Blank verse

Red Kite

Red Kite

We walked in the woods ,
There was a red kite 
Mobbed by crows .
Plastic bag 
Rattling
On the hawthorne
Dogshit on the 
Treads of 
A small pair of shoes .
But we walk on 
Into the sunlight 
Wash ourselves down
And don’t look back.
Another time will
Come 
We will make 
A different day.
