Smoke obliterates the moon's silkscreen stamp,
yet still the tides surge as high,
suitors sigh besotted.

tide-wrack on the beach's fringe

yearling capers in circles

whisperings at dusk
lissome slither of grass snakes
shifting through dead leaves

long shadows attend
crescent chirps, hoots, chiffs and whirs
twilight counterpoint

rounded by tides, sunbathes, dreams
of immovable might

daffodils blare xanthic fanfares
to passing bees

limbs a-quiver, a dormouse
follows the hawk's sweep

to taste nascent spring

the ominous flank of clouds
to score a field goal
