Paying in Time

I watch the bird
singing its song
I should be stirred
and smile along
But it’s silent
And I resent
the wage of age

A Bushy Tale

Sitting quite still
the grey leader
watching me fill
the bird feeder
And thus I see
conspiracy
to seize the seeds

Unfocussed Prune

The purple bird
spits as I pass
- which sounds absurd
but I’m the ass
who smashed its nest
when I de-stressed
my zen garden
