DUCK SHOOTING SEASON
FAREWELL TO FAIRDOWN
Before we left the small-holding at Fairdown we sold our precious Dexters, and remembered the other animals we’d lost. A pretty sad time. This is just something I wrote then.
for Muppet and Harry – and the calves we left behind
Shades of cows
Roam the paddocks
Through the churned up mud
Looking for past hay-piles
breathing heavily
Hester seeking the little red one
We fought for.
Sometimes a smaller shade
Stubby, wagging,
Seeking favorite sun places
And a swift flash of fur
green eyes following the cows.
Quiet now.
Waiting.
