NIGHT RAIN

NIGHT RAIN

I knocked

a weta out of

my gumboot

it was a large 

spiky critter 

the colour of whiskey.

I set it free

into the garden

the other boot was

full to the brim

from the drip 

of a nail pop

under the mackintosh sky

the colour of

Urn-Bru

Scotland's other national drink.

Avie.
