Pipistrelle

Visible to anyone in the world

Pipistrelle

Corner tree is taller than me.

It's roots delve into the dust

steeping in shadow sharp

angles shapes of green and rust.

The complicated cast of branches

are silhouetted bold and bare.

Last light December night

the black butterflies are rare.

End

That is a poem I wrote in response to an A215 exercise on using alliteration.
