one minute silence
to respect the late Queen
disrespectful dog

distant barking
sounds like our dog
who's broken a hole through to next door.
We've ignored the fence for eighteen years
and now we have to do something sharpish.
That was our Saturday.
Cutting back the conifers
and stapling up a wire fence,
our aching knees
soothed by an evening fire.
