Why said the plain looking man
Whose feet clipped the lanes
Is this world so corrupt and cruel
Has it always been this way?

Up in the apple tree a bluetit sang
And robin answered ‘yes’ friend
It’s always been wrong
But freely we sing for you.

Love Mary x

My garden is so quiet but for the faint buzz of a bee
A bluetit lands upon the bush just to the left of me
It doesn't seem to be afraid so young just from the nest
It sits and fluffs its feathers and puffs out its little chest
The sun is shining down on us we both sit here in peace
The world outside my garden still not safe from this disease
