Wooden picket fence interrupted by a tree.


Something There Is

To walk the line
with Robert Frost’s neighbour,
not stone, but wooden posts,
abruptly ended by a tree
that declares,
with arms extended,
“You’ve had the last
from me.”



Line count: 8
Free verse
For Express It In Eight, 12.13.23
Prompt: As per illustration. Which made me think of Frost’s poem
Mending Wall.
