Crabs
Crab trees turning red, petals strew the lawn
sky cloudless, dark at nine
memories of summer fade again;
winter coats in halls.
Wellies dry with mud sulk in porches
Brambles black and sweet join apples,
barmy evenings warm and short
darker clouds to watch.
Longer nights steal from the day
robin taps the window pane
wary of the Magpie.
