Slipping in a little late in the day (night!) with my Poetry Friday post, inspired by my evening walk.
After the Rain
A relay,
a medley,
a tag team,
a chorus;
up the street,
around the block,
through the suburb
and across the town;
after the rain,
before the weekend,
after the heat,
before the sun sets,
after a fine day,
before the next deluge;
humming
and droning,
whirring
and whining,
a buzz of mowers
cuts a swathe through
luscious lengths of
green grassy
lawn.
