Kettle

you are quite distinctly

Round and you

 

don’t whistle, you groan like a

Tortured soul

 

at first, a moan rising to a shriek, a most

Trenchant summons

 

i carefully with a potholder grasp your

Arching handle

 

pop open the spout and pour a stream of

Steaming water

 

into a mug with one or two bags of

Fragrant tea

 

which i will take to the backyard and sip in

Autumnal sunshine.
