Made of
Made of
Weevils and lice and plagues of mice
Tempests and gales and cold sea-snails
Needles and pins and monkey skins
Thickets and thorns and tall proud horns
Blossom and bees and gentle trees
Frankincense and fire
Beaks and hooks and buried books
Beasts from tapestries
Sighs and scars and scattered stars
Warrens and snares and lies
Harps and hares and magic squares
A hundred shining eyes
Owls and crows and old hedgerows
Weeds and wells and distant bells
Flies and frogs and hollow logs
A nest of wool and wire
Greening sod and growing wood
Wine and silk and foxes’ milk
Puddles and roots and muddy boots
Foam and fish and ice
