City draped in smog;
Some gasped for breath, prostrate lay
Some inhaled, made hay.

birds cross continents,
In hope of wamth and fields;
Stunned, look at concrete....

Don't tease or egg on,
Beware, beyond slippery ground;
End...just broken bones...

Hear someone giggle,
Peer out, there is no one... puzzled;
am here smiled drizzle.

Spins with abandon,
It whirs, whirs and then slows down,
To lie quiet on its side.

It’s raining bargains-
Buy just two and get seven eh,
Lured, cupboards flooded...

Kids playing hop scotch
On pavement, lines drawn with chalk;
Watches, cane in hand.

Farmer looks skyward,
Face clouded, scarecrow all dressed
Up; Looks out of place…

Heavy heart, why it broods...
Does nature fathom our moods;
Sun peeps out of clouds.

Floodgates are open,
Green crops ready for harvest drowned,
Sun, saviour comes out.
