Sit far from the house –
Deep down in my book, hedges ~
Thrum of my sparrows.
Sit far from the house –
Deep down in my book, hedges ~
Thrum of my sparrows.
Piles of newspapers –
Do get through them in the end ~
Keep the odd clipping.
Starting a new book –
I must have ten on the go ~
Some draw you deeper.
Sat by Choisya –
Reading beside busy bees ~
The wren inspects me.
Starting an old book –
It’s surprisingly cozy ~
Stoker’s Dracula.
A moment of calm –
Deciding what to read next ~
Or to read at all.
Sitting and reading –
Surrounded by shelves of books ~
Which one does one save?
