An Algarve retreat –
Silence broken by dogs, saws ~
Then, by lovely owls.

An Algarve retreat –
Silence broken by dogs, saws ~
Then, by lovely owls.
Surprise London trip –
Daughter seeing Hamilton ~
Yay negative tests!
Cancelling a trip –
An abundance of caution ~
This focking virus.
Music for Airports –
Making plans for the Grand Tour ~
Using Baedeker’s Guide.
Home late from the trip –
Dragging suit and self inside ~
Warm hug from the Boy.
Passing Joyce Tower –
A quartile on the way home ~
Across Dublin’s range.
Backpack left strap slips –
My shoulders’ width uneven ~
Broken collarbone.
Pittosporum buds –
And others, ready to go ~
I miss them, this year.
