Today, the rooves are all to see
which is something.
On Christmas Eve and next three
not even these, no, nothing.
The haar was thick, the air was still
the mildness did bring
calming thoughts, cheating thoughts,
of the possibility of spring.
Fraudster climate!
Bright days came then but
so did the frost.
Biting, hard, dry, crisp and
peeking buds were lost.
More fool them, being caught in hope
of flowering time!
They know not the names of seasons
only the feel of the clime.
Cheated beauty!
Thus, today here is the scene
from a window,
a place of land and sea and hills
and clouds so low.
Again no wind to blow them free
of the Bonny Land
or the water of Clyde and the
shores without sand.
End of the Earth!

There is a misty look in the northern hemi which I found different when there, I am more at home with our harsh and bright light.

ReplyDeleteknow they will not end looking at seasons
and the hopes they make rise.
I do love that phrase "fraudster climate!" There seems to be no world at all beyond those roof tops.
ReplyDeleteP.S. That's a very fine poem.
ReplyDeleteHaving seen your fleeting view, enjoy it while you can!
