The FAB&PP Poem of the Month for November 2013
the roses
shuffle and
scrape along
the
window
pane
moaning
in
the
autumn
bluster
their
flowers
defying
the
coming
season
[the]
orange
sunsets
and blood
red leaves
brave shoots
top
the
hedges
soon to be
pruned
away
as will be
the
last
rose
the
plant tied
down for
winter
and the
window
rests gathering
pale sun
and waits
for what's
to
come
