Accompanying the return
of magpie breath and feathers
I surround myself
with sallow squares
and careful circles of chalk
Ears pricked
Fingers reaching,
long and black,
across an eyeless stitch
flanked by candles
And the turning cogs,
twisting wheels and roots
Hoping for that cheerful clink
caused by paper against palm

P
Great imagery as always!
