Tame to wild
Held to lift
Small to tall
Slow to swift.
Milk to bark
Bleat to nod
Nest to field
Soft to hard
Babe to Doe
Sniff to know
Shift to surge
Rest to go

Hailstones whipping

Ice freezing
Hail flying
Moss grabbing
Moss clinging
Hail climbing
Hail cuts
Moss cowers
Moss shelters
Hail showers
Hail shouts
Moss whispers
Moss whimpers
Hail twisters

Up in the Trees
stretch limo
riding high
shotgun seat
in the sky
far away
close to spine
clutching tight
neck so fine
lift to leaves
munch for zest
best to come
graze and rest

Head to tail
World’s apart
Meow or wail
Wag or dart
Ears point north
Tail points south
‘Cept when curled
Tongue in mouth
Upside down
Eyes blink fast
Tail uncurls
Flag unfurled
Head tucked in
Perfect spiral
Tail wrapped round
Furry gyral.
