Something that continues a theme I return to again and again. C & c welcome
as always.
AFTER THE STORM
There's a flat monochrome
to set the scene
that has no appeal.
The wind still gusts
like a real heavy weight
though clearly in decline.
At the river side
the detritus of fast
water flow floats and gloats
its gathered sticks and straw
like unwholesome primal soup
bubbling on the surface.
Shoreline ducks
take to the water
knowing all is now well.
The white goose has gone
at last - the place seems empty
now he's on another estuary.
