Poems from Francis Kerr Young
The Rookery


The sky turns black with countless crows,
and I suppose
our local woods
now pool their broods.
How many murders lurk in there?
And who would dare
to walk beneath
what they bequeath?
Their caw-caw squabbles last all night
till grey goose light.
With dawn's rich crack
the sky turns black . . .
