Today is not the usual day I have no word for it And indirectly I can't say Or draw it on a paper sheet It's like a photograph of you On Cromer beach somewhere And I recall the wind that blew Although I wasn't there A day without a name, it meant A documented true I see a place, where you still...

Sleek form of burnished russet fur nimbly walking our garden wall. Each night we expect this visitor, indeed he has become an old friend. No longer hungry, robust and fit with a very fine brush. He sits down quite fearless waiting, dreaming of his potluck dinner. I never named this creature, although literature calls him Raynard. He is the hero of countless adventures. No, if I...
