The Smell of the Sea
the smell
of the sea
is overpowered by the
watermelon fragrance of newly mowed lawn
bobtails
hunting for unseen tit-bits
among shrubs -
an earthworm becomes a bone of contention
a butcherbird swoops -
swallowing the spoil
if only the bobtails had agreed to share...
there's enough for all of us to go around
