Silence broken by dogs, saws ~
Then, by lovely owls.

Sun’s heat on my shirt.

Good hiding place for fairies ~
And bold demons too.

Jewelled surprises.

Pittosporum chopped right down ~
Blinding autumn light.

Warm for October –
Outside with beer and papers ~
And one butterfly.

The last dahlias –
Some heads bent with their own weight ~
Hold mine high for them.
