Winter Onions

my little round sleepers
with lots of coats on, mud
huggers with a tribal bottom

perfectly lined up at the
bus stop of spring, soft
under cold loam, a miracle

despite the banality of hidden
numbers; time to drink tea
as I wait in a cooling garden

Once I looked up the word 'BANAL' it made more sense. Haha, well done. /|\
