Janet Aitch Apr 2020
Who could invent more
than spring has already
begun to display?
what poetic lens
could improve on
her wild, yet gentle,
detailed unwrapping
of colours, flowers,
leaves, textures
revealing, unfolding,
teasing, rewarding,
nodding and dancing,
joyfully singing
her perpetual
ever-new refrain?

Camellias, Forsythia and Daffodils
flowering
Dandelions in bud
Squirrels chasing

The poetry group
tried it this morning

What is a change?
An alteration
longed-for or loathed
mental or physical
swift or subtle
demanding or gentle

and some changes
make things better

The loose sort
is disappearing
It can't be used
online

The Roofer
tapped a slate
tenderly
looked up
said "Hi"
