On Monday I wonder?
June 24, 2013
Do teasels grow beyond the realms of the motorway?
Are they not thistle-like?
Tough and brutish, when refusing to be picked?
Looking architectural and grand
golden and bronzed for a while attracting finches.
Until they became blackened by the toxic exhaust fumes
Not so!
Stately grand and very green
with tiny embryonic teasels,
delicate as any thistle down.
Why has this sight previously gone by unnoticed?
