Poem: Throwback.

Throwback.

.

.

On a chill autumn day

Walking down by the river,

There was a sudden awareness

Of height and muscular breadth,

A smooth and masterful stride,

Of long yellow hair flowing back.

People clustered closely behind

But too afraid to overtake.

Arm raised up to receive the bird

That plummeted back towards the glove.
