I make tea in the same imprecise way
every morning, at more or less the same time.
It\u2019s still dark when I plod to the kitchen,
but that\u2019s changing.
There\u2019s a low rumble behind the clouds,
probably an airplane on its way to America.
Wind in the chimney makes a similar sound.
Gentle patter of rain on the roof
of the greenhouse,
day and night.
February has been very wet this year.
I\u2019m not sure what love is.
That\u2019s not what I mean. What I mean is
I only noticed this morning that you\u2019ve cut
back the fern over the sink.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
