Woodpecker knocking,
Muffled by distance, echoes
Through misty woodland

you & me caught
in the skylark’s winter song —
silence

Rising sun and dawn chorus
Welcome the morning

Skylarks gather on
Saltmarsh; sing sweetly, soaring
Through winter sunshine

Feet dangling in cool lake water
Carp circling below

She flies, screeching, scattering
Spells, curses, blessings

Autumn’s maudlin mood
Dampness, decay; remember
Spring brings fresh new leaves

She keeps silence,
Hoards her shadows,
Volume turned down,
Her voice in the static,
She is a shiver,
A prickling of thumbs,
Caught at the edges,
A glimpse at the corner.

Daffodils droop, desolate
Their bright display faded by
The passing of spring

Rests her weight against the gate
Watched by eyed colt

Bringing with welcome coolness
A fresh perspective

Watch beach disappear; high tide

Slung over fruit tree’s strong branch
Ripe plums overhead

Pear and plum trees shed leaves, rest

Not at all - which is why my mushrooms come from the supermarket 😂! I did some research for a story I was writing.
