THROUGH THE WINDOW<\/span>
 <\/span>

Now the growing months are here<\/span>
I can see the added beauty of this tree,<\/span>
it blocks out the neighbours<\/span>
and frowns at the clematis<\/span>
creeping, invading, but making<\/span>
apologies with delicate pinks.<\/span>
 <\/span>
I've hung the voile with blue tulips<\/span>
it looks good in my porch,<\/span>
too small to be called conservatory,<\/span>
but big enough for me<\/span>
to have five minutes before the<\/span>
invasion of flymos and mowers<\/span>
assaults my protesting ears<\/span>
and kills the moment.<\/span>
