bluebell the mole

Bluebell the Mole

caught by the cat
left in the grass
time to get a shovel
put it to rest

lift a slice of earth
lay the dead mole in

those big hands that 
dug through the ground 
now held out open
in surrender

cover him over
with a blanket of moss
some bluebells
placed on top
 
wrote this yesterday
with pictures in our yard
