The RobinA Poem by Michael OliverWork in progress - so hard to get the effects I can feel yet cannot capture.
The cut grass - thrown random - allows
Single askance stalks - mind jerk blades Sprung from mowing - a scattered rebellion Lone claims - defiant - against the imposition Nowhere - now - a fluttered surprise Thrill of wings - crisp - read breasted In this dewshine sun of morning Not the round 'Ah' of Christmas A Robin's eye - a Robin's beak Slick quick - hunts - by entrechat ripples Purposes action - gleans the structure - finds Then - 'Hello mate' - something to eat
