Pen y Fan and Corn Ddu from Pen Cerrig Calch, Powys on 29th Jan 2012

so high so long
knowing the flood plain folk
won't believe
our hilltop homestead
still has snow

snowy evening
villagers shout at
the fool on a bike

pathless moor
the cackle of grouse
hidden by mist

unlit road
snowdrops hang bright
over the hedgebank

hedge-layer's bonfire
the night has found
its' core of ash

slow thaw
a tractor limes grass
back to white

commuter traffic
a watching fox
shrugs it off

freezing forecast
a snowdrop reminder
there's nothing to fear
