an over ripe melon

the forgotten lost garden explored 
overturned and raked, 
neatly messed, 
in more ways...

Dolly joined, in the cool blue zest.
The children answered the heat
With all day swimming relays.

Forge on ever foolish
Cucumbers in your relish

Within the time allotted
of eighty-nine minutes,
to orbit the planet
at 17,500 miles per hour;
The Russian Cosmonaut
inside the Vostok capsule
espies the distinctive
features of earth,
from two hundred miles above
its surface.

And reflects upon
the physical violence
of energetic movement

O Wallace, I heard, and could not believe
Like the school days when things you conceived
Made us aghast or grieved

Another Day Safe From the Harvester's Jaws
Out of the burrows and hedges and dreys
Heads came a bobbing in frantic relays.

‘The Harvester’s coming to furrow the field!’
