a dormouse in the church car park
a ‘wind farm’ above Haworth
2
clouds hang on the moors
rain falls on the conservatory
3
on garbage day
the laptop drops out
4
boots dry on the tiles
an umbrella, furled
in the garden, flaps
5
a soccer ball, a pair
of spectacles
lost on the lawn
6
dark brakes of heather
visible for miles
7
frequent dead rabbits
8
a chattering bird
the fake siren of the holiday train
9
how do you say ‘Brontë’ in Japanese?
10
the rain, it rain-
eth every day
the pen, it run-
neth out
11
Oxenhope Moor to Hebden Bridge
every track a watercourse
12
‘The struggling Rill insensibly is grown
Into a Brook of loud and stately march,
Cross’d ever and anon by plank and arch . . .’
13
that just about says it

Thanks David, belatedly. I can be a bit slow getting back to comments (or even discovering that there are any)
