A much better version. Thank you Leo. minniemouse.gif pinkpanther.gif


White coated aphids
Sucking sap from blithe plum trees.
Hot breeze fans my face.

Revision 23/09/2008





Aphids in white coats.

Hot summer's breeze on my cheek.

Blithe trees: sap sucking.

SUMMER'S DAY




Aphids in white jackets.

Hot summer's breeze on my cheek.

Footsteps: tread gently.
