Two Black Cats

Two very black cats

Sit staring each other down

Neither giving way

While, the contented field-mouse

Runs home to his family

Whiteness of Spring Blooms

Whiteness of spring blooms
Seems bright in comparison
With overcast skies

Black and ginger cats

Eye each other cautiously

Through the new-grown grass

Busy fairground noise
Is no match for spring birdsong
Coming from the park
