TWO BADGERS & A WARWICKSHIRE SUNSET...

 Two Badgers & A Warwickshire Sunset…



A ruffling breeze cooled the dusk

Along the narrows of a Warwickshire lane;

The myriad choruses of sunset birds rang, unseen

Upon silhouetted sinister clawing trees, reaching

For an amber April sky in vain…


A lifted verge hardened to dust

Along the slender, quiet Warwickshire byway;

The busy snuffles of two badgers foraged, barely seen

Amongst twisted scrub beside their sett, searching

For sustenance, disregarding their hideaway…


I watched, I filmed, surprised.

I barely moved, undisguised.

They sensed my presence in the breeze,

Yet both seemed wholly at their ease…

This was a surprise…


JUST BEFORE THE BADGERS APPEARED...

Two badgers were happy to eat, despite the breeze revealing my presence.



Loved that…
