No Greensleeves here
no Elizabethan Reggae
only trees
which are not really green
except in the summer,

the roses are still dreaming
of the sun rising
there’s a while to go yet,

things flit past
but only bats,
so no worries
they’re heading back
after a night out.

Lighting a cigarette
because I’m old fashioned
and don’t Vape,

taking a moment of pleasure,

making it last forever
is more difficult.
