Suburban Spring Poem by Susy Evelyne

Suburban Spring

Rating: 4.5


If there could be a moment's peace -
just one minute long -

from all this...


drilling
grinding
crashing
sawing
mowing
strimming
revving
roaring!


Just one minute long...


to hear spring draw in breath
before singing her song.

You make a good point Susy, but as my Mother would have said - It's better than being deaf. I just skeedaddle off to my allotment and listen to the birds.
