~ Margaret Newton ~

Evolution

Gallant grey goose glides
Aside gentle dame
Over muddy puddle
Weep Canadian pair
Home evaporates
Hungry young hatch

Miniature mole mosies
Measured millimetres
Exposed traffic death
Circus cannon balls

Bulldozer jaws dribble
Ontario trillium roots
Expectorate
Ploughed parking lot

Bluster wind red dust
Summer projects spin
Perfect two car garages
Stain glass doors
Ceramic floors
Treated cedar decks
