Two small stones today. Train travel makes it easier
1.
One Winter tree, skeletal,
stranded in a verdant rainstorm field -
a picture hung on the wall
of this new home
2.
The ibis,
. long legs half-vanished
. in these impromptu lakes,
like lanky spear-fishers
. before the sails and shackles,
dance
. and probe
. at what the rain washed out
and do not turn
. to watch
. the train roar past.

Lovely. I particularly like the shift in style, indent-wise.
Thank-you, your pleasantness. I’m glad it worked, for it took some wrestling to get WordPress to cooperate with my plans (invisible full stops).
