This year I got in early
and started ‘No Mow May’ in
January. Now the grass
is tufty and embedded
with dandelion splashes.
It might not win awards
or have those tasteful stripes,
but the birds all seem to love it
and that’s a prize to me.

As spring erupts, our garden’s come to life. First thing the lawn’s awash with birds, pecking for food and heating material.
