There are few gulls left on Clapton Pond
They are lovely, reminding me of childhood
Their shrill shrieking cries thrill me
Stay longer gulls, if you would.
One coot has returned to float about
On Clapton Pond- will there be a nest
Of grey, open-throated chicks with red noses?
While parents search for food they serenely rest.
Come back again coots this year
Please build your nest here
Later you'll wander away
Seemingly without a care
