 1175


An Edwardian garden where the rain

Unnoticed softens paths and gently greys

The edges of the distant weather vane.

An Edwardian garden.

A blackbird unseen its welcome lays

Lightening the silence of the country lane

Where hollyhocks in hedgerows wait the blaze

Of early sun to warm the window pane

At which she stands - her unwavering gaze

Oblivious, until he comes again.

An Edwardian garden.
