Small Wonders
Morning sun slanting
Sparkling on secret river
Through new-unfurled leaves
Kingfisher diving
Nature’s own precious jewel
Scattering rainbows
Bright blooms of summer
Exhale their sweetest perfume
In afternoon sun
Dragonfly hawking
Drawing maps of green gardens
In three dimensions
Cool air of evening
Painting sunset’s afterglow
In softer colours
Pipistrelles darting
Embroidering deep twilight
With velvet patches
Tiny miracles
Waiting to enrapture us
If we only look
# Pipistrelles are the smallest of European bats.
They are still quite common in Britain.
