birds in the spanne

there are birds in the greenhouse - lots
there are flying insects too 
and every square millimetre of earth contains countless microbial beings
it is a rich place and safe
hot airy
the lights crane open
the clouds pass
the birds loose from end to end
the whole spanne: 
lemon flowers, figs and unceasing wings

    1. Thanks, John. Hopefully see you at a Fermain poetry night soon - unfortunately can't make it this week but want to get there another time.
