A crab made from a crisp bag Saunters precariously across the kerb The face in the tree branches Catches my eye The waving mist from car fumes Makes the world seem hazy Reflections on the water Mirror my mood Car lights like ants Flow along the sprawling roads Ice covers trees like greyness of the aged Cold and numb to touch A sun ray shines like the light bulb That illuminates my study Darkness covers the sky Like the secrets behind the cupboard door
