lilies
on her grave

leaf falls
cushioned
hand to hand
night
listening to the wind –
gossip over the fence
duet –
frog and cricket
in the house
seagull
on the wharf
braced against the wind

outlined
still water
the bridge doubles

putting rubbish in my bin

are patriotic

next to a pub
worshippers gather
