Snow To Thaw
The hawthorn snakes through the snow skywards
as the bushes are kept warm by white blankets
as the many scissors hands yew threatens you.
Callipygian's nakedness is made modest by white
cap and cape, as the bush by the conservatory has
eggs of yellow leaves encased by snow, while the
Chinese wind chime makes such a jolly winter tune.
Now a thaw begins. The keen mud makes its mark
while the shy grass shivvers as it removes its blankets.
