set in an azure sky...

a first quarter moon

the colour of pearl

low hum of traffic...

a woodpigeon coos

out of tune     

setting sun...

along the lush green bank

a dusting of poppies

bench in the square...

on opening his sandwiches

a blackbird appears

approaching home...

suddenly a blackbird

bursts from the hedge

almost twilight...

the setting sun

cuts a roof in half

almost midnight... a sneeze echoes through the flats
