Aflame, the bronze, gold & autumnal reds,
Fox, badger & hedgehogs, hide their heads,
Autumn berries turn their backs on frosty hoar,
Hark, the fleeing of deer, hare & grunting
boar.
Silent, white in embarrassed & blanketed
snows,
Little ones bury wee snouts, small nebs &
fury nose,
Ivy & bleeding holly, announce season of
the Yule,
Twigs & logs collected, for warm hearthside
fuel.
The soft shy smiling, of golden sunshine shadows,
Budded heads nodding, in springtime meadows,
New fledglings in nests, serenaded in joyful
song,
Sap rising, in flora & fauna, potent, virile
& strong.
With the last of spring´s wet & cooling
showers,
Summer dresses in her showy bright flowers,
On hedgerow´s verdant breasts, gentle perfumes,
Lulled at dusk, by nightingales & soft opal
moons.
