a shilfie  -
sae colourfou
a expeck it tae threip




a chaffinch  -
so colourful
I expect it to speak

dandelions  -
universe
of suns and moons

spring
greening
the stream

morning
of the funeral
bluebells

out
from the cosmic core
this tiny bird chirping

blackbird's
discarded embryo  -
murdering magpie

a morning
of pink puddles
along cherry-tree road

cherry orchard -
cumuli-filled
sky

spring fair  -
swifts
helter-skeltering

into the garden
a hawk  -
cacaphony of wings

along the riverside
Lenten robes
of purple lilac

football in the park  -
daffodils and croci
proud in their colours

through the woods 
daffodils
lighting the way

mugged by a gang
of sparrows  -  magpie
drops a white feather

spring fair  -
swifts
helter-skeltering

through clouds
a ray pierces
the poppy's head fills with light

today I glimpsed
the dandelion's ghost
before it disappeared

along the riverside
Lenten robes
of purple lilac

camellia blossoming  -
a hundred throats
singing

riverside forsythia:
lighting
underwater caverns
