..day 17..
(march 2020)
..isolation diary..
..day 17..
bright clear cold today
early before folks wake i
light the incinerator
to burn the leaves
garden debris
the wild cat watches
each time i clear a patch
he finds another heap
to nestle in
so i wonder whether to leave
a place for him, the darling
for that is his given name
on my walk i noted the numbers
one hundred up the hill to pentre
ten at the gate
the sheep was 28 with two
lambs marked the same
there is multiplication
for you
i stopped to watch as the vehicle came
a tractor
i have been walking the centre of the track
no vehicles a fortnight all on lockdown
the farmer fetching bales and nodding
as he passed
i nodded back
noted the blossom
noted the crystal stones
walked home
it is suggested that we are out walking for one
hour
i should like to walk on
i turn for home james
176
still in my pjs with boots
my warm garden jacket
